To safely operate your vehicle, your
tires must be the proper type and
size, in good condition with adequate
tread, and correctly inflated.

The following pages give more
detailed information on how to take
care of your tires and what to do
when they need to be replaced.

Keeping the tires properly inflated
provides the best combination of
handling, tread life, and riding
comfort.

Underinflated tires wear unevenly,
adversely affect handling and fuel
economy, and are more likely to
fail from being overheated.

Overinflated tires can make your
vehicle ride more harshly, are
more prone to damage from road
hazards, and wear unevenly.

We recommend that you visually
check your tires every day. If you
think a tire might be low, check it
immediately with a tire gauge.

For convenience, the recommended
tire sizes and cold air pressures are

Use a gauge to measure the air
pressure at least once a month. Even
tires that are in good condition may
lose one to two psi (10 to 20 kPa, 0.1
to 0.2 kgf/cm ) per month.

Remember to check the spare tire at
the same time.
