WARNING
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
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. Repeat with each tire, including the spare.
NOTE
Some spare tires require higher
inflation pressure.
8. 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.
9. Check the sidewalls to make sure there are no gouges, cuts, bulges,
cracks or other irregularities.
▼Glossary of Terms
Tire Placard:

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.
Ve h i c l e L o a d L i m i t : The maximum
value of the combination weight of
occupants and cargo.
Bead Area of the Tire: Area of the tire
next to the rim.

Improper wheel alignmentOut-of-balance wheelSevere braking
After rotation, inflate all tire pressures
to specification (page 9-7) and
inspect the lug nuts for tightness.
CAUTION
Rotate unidirectional tires and radial
tires that have an asymmetrical tread
pattern or studs only from front to rear,
not from side to side. Tire performance
will be weakened if rotated from side
to side.
▼ Replacing a Tire
WARNING
Always use tires that are in good
condition:
Driving with worn tires is dangerous.
Reduced braking , steering , and
traction could result in an accident.
If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator
will appear as a solid band across the
tread.
Replace the tire when this happens.
1. New tread
2. Worn tread
3. Tread wear indicator
You should replace the tire before the
band crosses the entire tread.
NOTE
Tires degrade over time, even when
they are not being used on the road. It
is recommended that tires generally be
replaced when they are 6 years or
older. Heat caused by hot climates or
frequent high load
ing conditions can
accelerate the aging process. You
should replace the spare tire when you
replace the other road tires due to the
aging of the spare tire. The period in
which the tire was manufactured (both
week and year) is indicated by a 4-digit
number.
Refer to Tire Labeling on page 8-22.
▼ Safety Practices
The way you drive has a great deal to
do with your tire mileage and safety.
So cultivate good driving habits for
your own benefit.
Observe posted speed limits and
drive at speeds that are safe for the
existing weather conditions
Avoid fast starts, stops and turnsAvoid potholes and objects on the
road
Do not run over curbs or hit the tire
against the curb when parking
CAUTION
If you feel a sudden vibration or ride
disturbance while driving or you
suspect your tire or vehicle has been
damaged, immediately reduce your
speed. Drive with caution until you can
safely pull off the road. Stop and
inspect the tire for damage. If the tire
is under-inflated or damaged, deflate
it, remove the tire and rim and replace
it with your spare tire. If you cannot
detect a cause, have the vehicle towed
to the nearest vehicle or tire dealer to
have the vehicle inspected.

WARNING
Do not tow a trailer with this vehicle:
Towing a trailer with this vehicle is
dangerous because it has not been
designed to tow a trailer and doing so
will
affect the drive system which could
result in vehicle damage.
This section will guide you in the
proper loading of your vehicle, to keep
your loaded vehicle weight within its
design rating capability. Properly
loading your vehicle will provide
maximum return of vehicle design
performance. Before loading your
vehicle, familiarize yourself with the
following terms for determining your
vehicle's weight ratings, from the
vehicle's Safety Certification Label and
Tire and Load Information Label:
WARNING
Overloaded Vehicle:
Overloading a vehicle is dangerous.
The results of overloading can have
serious consequences in terms of
passenger safety. Too much weight on
a vehicle's suspension system can
cause spring or shock absorber failure,
brake failure, handling or steering
problems, irregular tire wear, tire
failure or other damage.
Overloading makes a vehicle harder to
drive and control. It also increases the
distance required for stopping. In cases
of serious overloading, brakes can fail
completely, particularly on steep
grades. The load a tire will carry safely
is a combination of the size of the tire,
its load range, and corresponding
inflation pressure.
Never overload the vehicle and always
observe the vehicle's weight ratings
from the vehicle's Safety Certification
and Tire and Load Information labels.
Base Curb Weight is the weight of the
vehicle including a full tank of fuel
and all standard equipment. It does
not include passengers, cargo, or
optional equipment.
Vehicle Curb Weight is the weight of
your new vehicle when you picked it
up from your dealer plus any
aftermarket equipment.
PAY LOA D
Pay l o a d is the combination weight of
cargo and passengers that the vehicle
is designed to carry. The maximum
payload for your vehicle can be found
on the Tire and Load Information label
on the driver's door frame or door
pillar. Look for “THE COMBINATION
WEIGHT OF OCCUPANTS AND
CARGO SHOULD NEVER EXCEED XXX
kg or XXX lbs” for your maximum
payload. The payload listed on the tire
label is the maximum payload for the
vehicle as built by the assembly plant.
If any aftermarket or dealer installed
equipment has been installed on the
vehicle, the weight of the equipment
must be subtracted from the payload

WARNING
Never Exceed Axle Weight Rating
Limits:
Exceeding the Safety Certification
Label axle weight rating limits is
dangerous and could result in death or
serious injury as a result of substandard
vehicle handling, performance, engine,
transmission and/or structural
damage, serious damage to the
vehicle, or loss of control.
Always keep the vehicle within the axle
weight rating limits.
GCW
GCW (Gross Combination Weight) is
the weight of the loaded vehicle
(GVW).
GCWR (Gross Combination Weight
Rating) is the maximum allowable
weight of the vehicle - including all
cargo and passengers - that the vehicle
can handle without risking damage.
The GCW must never exceed the
GCWR.
WARNING
Never Exceed GVWR or GAWR
Specifications:
Exceeding the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the
certification label is
dangerous. Exceeding any vehicle
rating limitation could result in a
serious accident, injury, or damage to
the vehicle.
Do not use replacement tires with
lower load carrying capacities than the
originals because they may lower the
vehicle's GVWR and GAWR
limitations. Replacement tires with a
higher limit than th e originals do not
increase the GVWR and GAWR
limitations.
Never exceed the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the certification label.
