TIRES AND WHEELS Specifications & Consumer information
CAUTION
When replacing tires, use the same size originally supplied with the vehicle.
Using tires of a different size can damage the related parts or make them work irregularly.

✽ ✽
NOTICE
• It is permissible to add 21 kPa (3 psi) to the standard tire pressure specification if colder temperatures are expected soon.
Tires typically loose 7 kPa (1 psi) for every -11°C (12°F) temperature drop. If extreme temperature variations are expect-
ed, re-check your tire pressure as necessary to keep them properly inflated.
• We recommend that when replacing tires, use the same originally supplied with the vehicles. If not, that affects driving
performance.
• When driving in high altitude grades, it is natural for the atmospheric pressure to decrease. Therefore, please check the
tire pressure and add more air when necessary.
Additionally required tire air pressure per km above sea level: 10 kPa/km (1.5 lb/po²/km).
