TIRE PRESSURES

• Check the inflation pressure of each tire, including the spare tire, at least monthly

and inflate to the recommended pressure for your vehicle.

• The tire pressures recommended for your vehicle are found on the “Tire and

Loading Information” label located on the driver’s side door opening.

NOTE:
Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD
for more information regarding tire warn-
ings and instructions.

WARNING!

• Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure,

affect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the
recommended load capacity for your vehicle. Never overload them.

• Improperly inflated tires are dangerous and can cause collisions. Under-inflation

is the leading cause of tire failure and may result in severe cracking, component
separation, or “blow out”. Over-inflation reduces a tire’s ability to cushion shock.
Objects on the road and chuck holes can cause damage that results in tire
failure. Unequal tire pressures can cause steering problems. You could lose
control of your vehicle. Over-inflated or under-inflated tires can affect vehicle
handling and can fail suddenly, resulting in loss of vehicle control.
