10-20 Vehicle Care
Tire Rotation Tires should be rotated every
12 000 km (7,500 mi).
Any time unusual wear is
noticed, rotate the tires as
soon as possible and check the
wheel alignment. Also check for
damaged tires or wheels. See
“ When It Is Time for New Tires ”
and “ Wheel Replacement ” in
the owner manual for more
information.
The purpose of regular rotation
is to achieve more uniform
wear for all tires on the vehicle.
The first rotation is the most
important. See “ Maintenance
Schedule ” in the owner manual. Use this rotation pattern when
rotating the tires.
Adjust the front and rear tires
to the recommended inflation
pressure on the Tire and
Loading Information label after
the tires have been rotated. See
“ Vehicle Load Limits ” in the
owner manual for an example of
the label and its location on your
vehicle. Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor
System (TPMS). See Tire
Pressure Monitor Operation on
page 10 ‑ 17 .
Check that all wheel nuts are
properly tightened. See “ Wheel
Nut Torque ” under “ Capacities
and Specifications ” in the owner
manual.
Lightly coat the center of the
wheel hub with wheel bearing
grease after a wheel change or
tire rotation to prevent corrosion
or rust build-up. Do not get
grease on the flat wheel
mounting surface or on the
wheel nuts or bolts.
If a Tire Goes Flat This vehicle has a tire inflator kit.
There is no spare tire, no tire
changing equipment, and no place
to store a tire.
