Checking the tire pressure

1.

Remove the valve stem cap from the
tire.

2.

Press the pressure gauge squarely onto
the valve stem. Do not press too hard or
force the valve stem sideways, or air will
escape. If the hissing sound of air
escaping from the tire is heard while
checking the pressure, reposition the
gauge to eliminate this leakage.

3.

Remove the gauge.

4.

Read the tire pressure on the gauge
stem and compare it to the specifica-

tion shown on the Tire and Loading
Information label.

5.

Add air to the tire as needed. If too
much air is added, press the core of the
valve stem briefly with the tip of the
gauge stem to release pressure. Re-
check the pressure and add or release
air as needed.

6.

Install the valve stem cap.

7.

Check the pressure of all other tires,
including the spare.

Example

TIRE LABELING

Federal law requires tire manufacturers to
place standardized information on the side-
wall of all tires. This information identifies
and describes the fundamental character-
istics of the tire and also provides the tire
identification number (TIN) for safety stan-
dard certification. The TIN can be used to
identify the tire in case of a recall.
