TIRE INFLATION
PRESSURE
On the tire label you will find the
recommended tire inflation pressure in
both psi and kPa for the tires installed
as original equipment on the vehicle.
It is very important that the inflation
pressure of the tires on your vehicle is
maintained at the recommended
pressure.
You should check the tire pressure
regularly to insure that the proper
inflation pressure is maintained.
Note:
Tire pressures listed on the vehicle
placard or tire information label indicate
the recommended cold tire inflation
pressure, measured when the tires are
cold, after the vehicle has been parked
for at least three hours. As you drive,
the temperature in the tire warms up,
increasing the tire pressure.
Always check the tire inflation
pressures on a regular basis according
to the recommended tire inflation
pressure on the tire label and in
conjunction with the information in this
Owner's Manual. Driving your vehicle
with under-inflated tires is dangerous.
Under-inflation is the most common
cause of failures in any kind of tire and
may result in severe cracking, tread
separation or “blowout”, with
unexpected loss of vehicle control and
increased risk of injury. Under-inflation
increases sidewall flexing and rolling
resistance, resulting in heat buildup
and internal damage to the tire. It
results in unnecessary tire stress,
irregular wear, loss of control and
accidents. A tire can lose up to half of
its air pressure and not appear to be
flat. It is impossible to determine
whether or not tires are properly
inflated just by looking at them.

Checking Tire Pressure
Proceed as follows:
1. When you check the air pressure,
make sure the tires are cold - meaning
they are not hot from driving even a
mile.
2. Remove the cap from the valve on
one tire.
3. Firmly press a tire gauge onto the
valve.
4. Add air to achieve recommended air
pressure.
5. If you overfill the tire, release air by
pushing on the metal stem in the center
of the valve. Then recheck the pressure
with your tire gauge.
6. Replace the valve cap.
7. Visually inspect the tires to make
sure there are no nails or other objects
embedded that could poke a hole in the
tire and cause an air leak.
8. Check the sidewalls to make sure
there are no gouges, cuts, bulges,
cracks or other irregularities.
Glossary Of Terms
Tire Placard

Equipment) tire sizes, recommended
inflation pressure, and the maximum
weight the vehicle can carry.
Tire Identification Number (TIN)
A number on the sidewall of each tire
providing information about the tire
brand and manufacturing plant, tire
size, and date of manufacture.
Inflation Pressure
A measure of the amount of air in a tire.
kPa
Kilopascal, the metric unit for air
pressure.
psi
Pounds per square inch, the English
unit for air pressure.B-pillar
The structural member at the side of
the vehicle behind the front door.
Original Equipment (OE)
Describes components originally
equipped on the vehicle.
Vehicle Load Limit

weight of occupants and cargo.
Bead Area of the Tire
Area of the tire next to the rim.
Sidewall Area of the Tire
Area between the bead area and the
tread.
Tread Area of the Tire
Area on the perimeter of the tire that
contacts the road when it's mounted
on the vehicle.
