Saf ety Precautions
A manually operated tire pump should be used rather than the high
pressure system found in service stations. This will minimize the
possibility of tire damage from overinflation. If you use a high pressure
system at a service station, add air in small amounts and check the
pressure increase frequently to prevent possible tire damage from
overinflation.
Refer to on page .
Whenever you check the tire pressures, you should also look for:
Bumps or bulges in the side of the tire or the tread. Replace any tire
that has a bump or bulge.
Cuts, slits, or cracks in the tires. Replace the tire if you can see fabric
or cord.
Excessive tread wear.
Nails or other foreign objects embedded in the side of the tire or tread.
