SERVICING YOUR TIRES

Checking the tire pressure

Use an accurate tire pressure

gauge.

Checkthe tire pressure when

tires are cold, after the vehicle has

been parked for at least one hour or

has been driven less than 5 km

(3 miles).

Adjust tire pressure to

recommended specifications found

on the label located on the rear

most driverĆside door jamb.

Improperly inflated tires

can affect vehicle handling

and can fail suddenly, possibly

resulting in loss of vehicle

control.

Tire rotation

Because your vehicle's tires

perform different jobs, they often

wear differently. To make sure your

tires wear evenly and last longer,

rotate them as indicated in the

Scheduled Maintenance Guide". If

you notice that the tires wear

unevenly, have them checked.
