Tire Rotation – F1 Three Season Tires
The suggested rotation method is the “side-to-side” as

shown in the following diagram. This method is required

due to different size tires on the front and rear of the

vehicle.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM (TPMS)
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) will warn the

driver of a low tire pressure based on the vehicle recom-

mended cold placard pressure.
The tire pressure will vary with temperature by about

1 psi (6.9 kPa) for every 12°F (6.5°C). This means that

when the outside temperature decreases, the tire pressure

will decrease. Tire pressure should always be set based

on cold inflation tire pressure. This is defined as the tire

pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for at least

three hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after a

three hour period. The cold tire inflation pressure must

not exceed the maximum inflation pressure molded into

the tire sidewall. Refer to “Tires – General Information”

in “Starting and Operating” for information on how to

properly inflate the vehicle’s tires. The tire pressure will

also increase as the vehicle is driven - this is normal and

there should be no adjustment for this increased pres-

sure.
