Warning!

G

Do not drive with a flat tire. A flat tire affects

the ability to steer or brake the vehicle. You

may lose control of the vehicle. Continued

driving with a flat tire will cause excessive

heat build-up and possibly a fire.

Warning!

G

Follow recommended tire inflation

pressures.

Do not underinflate tires. Underinflated tires

wear excessively and/or unevenly, adverse-

ly affect handling and fuel economy, and are

more likely to fail from being overheated.

Do not overinflate tires. Overinflated tires

can adversely affect handling and ride com-

fort, wear unevenly, increase stopping dis-

tance, and result in sudden deflation

(blowout) because they are more likely to

become punctured or damaged by road

debris, potholes etc.
