pressure labelonthe inside ofthe fuel filler flap.
Ifyour vehicle hastires ofadifferent size
than thesize indicated onthe Tire andLoading
Inform ationplacard orthe tire pressure label,
you should determine theproper tirepressure
for those tires.
As anadded safetyfeature, yourvehicle has
been equipp edwith atire pressure monitorin g

Acc ordingly, whenthelow tirepressure
telltale illuminates, youshould stopandcheck
your tires assoon aspossible, andinflate
them tothe proper pressure. Drivingona
significantly underinflated tirecauses thetire
to overheat andcanlead totire failure.
Underinflation alsoreduces fuelefficiency
and tiretread life,and may affect thevehicle's
handling andstopping ability.
Please notethattheTPMS isnot asubstitute
