TIRE SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
This manual is not intended to provide proper training or service
pr
ocedures for tire mounting, dismounting, balancing, rotation, or
repair. Please leave these tasks to qualified tire service professionals.
Inflation pressure can decrease by one psi for every 10°F temperature
d r
op Important factors in tire care are:
• Proper inflation pressure
•
Proper vehicle loading
•
Proper vehicle maintenance
•
Regular inspection
•
Good driving habits
R
efer to your vehicle Owner’s Manual for additional tire safety and
se
rvice advice.
WARNING!
• Toyo Tires® are designed and built with great care. Any tire, no
m
atter how well constructed, can fail as a result of punctures,
impact damage, underinflation/overloading or other conditions
resulting from use. Tire failures may create a risk of property
damage or personal injury. To obtain the highest possible
performance, tires must be maintained properly.
• Remember, you are ultimately responsible for the tires installed
o
n your vehicle.

TIRE PRESSURE BASICS
The combined effect of losing one psi per month over several months
al
ong with a one psi decrease for every 10°F temperature drop could
add up to a severe “run low” condition; consequently, it is important
to check your tires’ inflation pressure at least once per month. Inflation
pressure enables a tire to support its load; therefore, proper inflation
is critical.
HOW TO DETERMINE PROPER TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE
It is impossible to determine whether tires are properly inflated just
by
looking at them.

It is important to check your tires using an accurate tire pressure
gauge, which can be purchased at your tire dealer or auto supply
store.
Under inflation can overload tires. Check the inflation pressure every
mo
nth, including for the spare tire, to make sure it is up to
specification. Check it again before long trips or when carrying extra
weight.
Look for FCA US LLC’s recommended inflation pressure listed on the
Ti
re Information Placard usually located on your vehicle’s door edge,
door post, glove box, or inside the trunk lid.

CAUTION!
The inflation pressure shown on the sidewall of the tire is not the
in
tended inflation pressure for the vehicle. Always refer to the
vehicle’s Tire Information Placard.
WARNING!
Driving on tires with insufficient inflation pressure is dangerous
be
cause it will cause your tires to overheat. This can cause sudden
tire failure, which may result in loss of vehicle control and lead to
serious personal injury or death.

USING A TIRE PRESSURE GAUGE
For accuracy, check your inflation pressure with a tire pressure gauge
wh
en tires are cold for example, after being parked overnight. Driving
heats up tires and causes an inaccurate pressure reading.
To check inflation pressure with a tire pressure gauge:
1. Remove the tire valve cap.
2. P lace the end of the tire pressure gauge over the valve.
3
. P ress the tire pressure gauge straight and firmly and take a reading.
4
. I f needed, inflate and recheck the pressure with the tire pressure
ga
uge.
5. R eplace the valve cap.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SAFE TIRE INFLATION
• If you must inflate your tires when they are hot, add four pounds
p
er square inch (4 psi) (28 kPa) above the recommended inflation
pressure specification. Recheck the inflation pressure when the tires
are cold and adjust to the recommended inflation pressure shown
on the vehicle’s Tire Information Placard.
• Never release air or nitrogen from a hot tire in order to reach the
r
ecommended cold tire pressure. Normal driving causes tires to run
hotter and inflation pressure to increase. If you release pressure
when your tires are hot, you may dangerously underinflate your
tires. If your tires lose more than one pound per square inch (1 psi)
per month, the tire, the valve, or the wheel may be damaged.
Consult an authorized Toyo Tires dealer for an inspection.
• Over-inflation can cause the tire to be more susceptible to impact
d
amage.
• Over-inflation or underinflation may adversely affect vehicle
h
andling.
• Remember to check your spare tire. Consult your vehicle Owner’s
M
anual for the correct inflation pressure and use of a “temporary
use” spare tire. The inflation pressure specified for a spare tire is
typically different from that specified for your regular tires.
• Use valve caps to keep valve cores clean and clear of debris and to
h
elp guard against air leakage.
WARNING!
Never inflate a tire unless it is secured to the vehicle or a tire
mo
unting machine. Inflating an unsecured tire is dangerous. If
the tire bursts, it could be propelled into the air with explosive
force and cause serious personal injury or death.
