It is important to familiarize yourself with the following terms:
 Cold tire pressure: • The measured pressure after the vehiclehas been parked for at least three hours, or • The measured pressure when the vehicleis driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after having been parked for three hours.
 Maximum pressure: the maximum per- missible cold tire inflation pressure for this tire.  Recommended inflation pressure: the inflation pressure for optimum tire perfor- mance. Intended outboard sidewall: • The sidewall that c
ontains a whitewall,
bears white letteri
ng or bears manufac-
turer, brand, and/or model name molding that is higher or deeper than the same molding on the other sidewall of the tire,or • The outward facing si
dewall of an asym-
metrical tire that has a particular sidethat must always face outward when mounted on a vehicle.
 Passenger car tire: a
tire intended for use
on passenger cars, multipurpose passen- ger vehicles, and trucks that have a gross vehicle weight rati
ng (GVWR) of 10,000
pounds or less.
 Light truck (LT) tire
: a tire designated by
its manufacturer as primarily intended foruse on lightweight tr
ucks or multipurpose
passenger vehicles.  Tread: portion of a tire that comes into contact with the road.  Tread rib: a tread se
ction running circum-
ferentially around a tire. Tread separation: pulling away of the tread from the tire carcass.  Carcass: the tire structure, except tread and sidewall rubber which, when inflated, bears the load. Sidewall: portion of a tire between the tread and bead.  Section width: the line
ar distance between
the exteriors of the sidewalls of an inflated tire, excluding elevations due to labeling, decoration, or protective bands. Bead: the part of the tire that is made of steel wires, wrapped
or reinforced by ply
cords and that is shaped to fit the rim. Ply: a layer of rubber-coated parallel cords.  Cord: the strands forming the plies in the tire.  Rim: a metal support for a tire or a tire and tube assembly upon which the tirebeads are seated.  Rim diameter: nominal diameter of the bead seat.
 Check to see that the battery is securely installed and cannot be moved. Also checkeach terminal for tightness.  If you will not be driving your vehicle for a long period of time, remove the battery andstore it in a place where the battery fluid will not freeze. The battery only should be stored with a full charge.  Before cleaning the battery, tighten all the filler port caps to keep
dirt and moisture out.
Tires
WA R N I N GDriving with tires that are worn, damaged or improperly inflated is dangerous. These type tire conditions will adverselyaffect vehicle performance. These type tire conditions can also cause a tread separation or blowout which mayresult in an accide
nt causing serious
injury or death. Tires, including spar
e tire, degrade over
time with age even when they are not being used. It is recommended that tires over 6 yearsgenerally be replaced even if damage is not obvious.NOTE

may damage the plas-
tic surface.
 Do not let plastic parts get soiled with gaso- line, oil, brake fluids
, engine oils, greases,
paint thinner, and sulfur
ic acid (battery elec-
trolyte), as such substa
nces will cause stains,
cracks, or discoloration. If any of these get on a plastic part, wipethem up with a soft cloth or chamois and a mild solution of soap and water. Then rinse them immediately with water.
