● Most tires naturally lose air over time.
● Tires can lose air suddenly when

driven over potholes or other objects
or if the vehicle strikes a curb while
parking.

The tire pressures should be checked
when the tires are cold. The tires are
considered COLD after the vehicle has
been parked for 3 or more hours, or driven
less than 1 mile (1.6 km) at moderate
speeds.

The TPMS with Easy Fill Tire Alert pro-
vides visual and audible signals outside
the vehicle for inflating the tires to the
recommended COLD tire pressure. For
additional information, refer to “TPMS
with Easy Fill Tire Alert” in the “Starting
and driving” section.

Incorrect tire pressure, including un-
der inflation, may adversely affect
tire life and vehicle handling.

WARNING

Improperly inflated tires can fail

suddenly and cause an accident.

The Gross Vehicle Weight Rating

(GVWR)

is

located

on

the

F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S.

certifica-

tion label. The vehicle weight ca-
pacity is indicated on the Tire and
Loading Information label. Do
not load your vehicle beyond this
capacity. Overloading your ve-
hicle may result in reduced tire
life, unsafe operating conditions
due to premature tire failure, or
unfavorable handling character-
istics and could also lead to a
serious accident. Loading beyond
the specified capacity may also
result in failure of other vehicle
components.

Before taking a long trip, or

whenever you heavily load your
vehicle, use a tire pressure gauge
to ensure that the tire pressures
are at the specified level.

For additional information re-

garding tires, refer to “Important
Tire Safety Information” (US) or
“Tire

Safety

Information”

(Canada) in the Warranty Infor-
mation Booklet.
