2016 JEEP RENEGADE tire pressure

•Performance tires, tires with a speed rating of V or
higher, and Summer tires typically have a reduced
tread life. Rotation of these tires per the vehicle main-
tenance schedule is highly recommended.
WARNING!
Tires and the spare tire should be replaced after six
years, regardless of the remaining tread. Failure to
follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure.
You could lose control and have a collision resulting
in serious injury or death.
Keep dismounted tires in a cool, dry place with as little
exposure to light as possible. Protect tires from contact
with oil, grease, and gasoline.
Replacement Tires
The tires on your new vehicle provide a balance of many
characteristics. They should be inspected regularly for
wear and correct cold tire inflation pressures. The manu-
facturer strongly recommends that you use tires equiva-
lent to the originals in size, quality and performance
when replacement is needed. Refer to the paragraph on
“Tread Wear Indicator”. Refer to the Tire and Loading
Information placard or the Vehicle Certification Label for
the size designation of your tire. The Load Index and
Speed Symbol for your tire will be found on the original
equipment tire sidewall. See the Tire Sizing Chart ex-
ample found in the “Tire Safety Information” section of
this manual for more information relating to the Load
Index and Speed Symbol of a tire.

MAINTAINING AND CARING FOR YOUR VEHICLE 587

•If you do not disconnect the battery from the electrical
system, check the battery charge every thirty days.
•Clean and protect the painted parts by applying pro-
tective waxes.
•Clean and protect polished metal parts by applying
protective waxes.
•Apply talcum powder to the front and rear wiper
blades and leave raised from the glass.
•Cover the vehicle with an appropriate cover taking
care not to damage the painted surface by dragging
across dirty surfaces. Do not use plastic sheeting which
will not allow the evaporation of moisture present on
the surface of the vehicle.
•Inflate the tires at a pressure of +7.25 psi (+0.5 bar) is
higher than recommended on the tire placard and
check it periodically.•Do not drain the engine cooling system.
•Whenever you leave the vehicle is stationary for two
weeks or more, run the at engine idling and for
approximately five minutes, with the air conditioning
system on and high fan speed. This will ensure a
proper lubrication of the system, thus minimizing the
possibility of damage to the compressor when the
vehicle is put back into operation.
CAUTION!
Before removal of the positive and negative terminals
to the battery, wait at least a minute with ignition
switch in the OFF position and close the drivers door.
When reconnecting the positive and negative terminals
to the battery be sure the ignition switch is in the OFF
position and the drivers door is closed.
