Tire Inflation Pressure
Cold tire inflation pressure value under the following loading conditions listed in the table below:
• PLC (Partial Loading Condition): considering 2 pass luggage.
• FLC (Full Loading Condition): considering 4 or 5 pass luggage.
High speed driving (*)
Load PLC FLC PLC - FLC
Wheel Front and rear Front and rear Front and rear

NOTE:
For more information about the pressure check methods, see “Tires – General Information” in section 5.
WARNING!
• Improperly inflated tires are dangerous and can cause collisions.
• Under-inflation increases tire flexing and can result in tire overheating and failure.
• Over-inflation reduces a tire's ability to cushion shock. Objects on the road and chuckholes can cause damage that result
in tire failure.
• Over-inflated or under-inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and can fail suddenly, resulting in loss of vehicle control.
• Unequal tire pressures can cause steering problems. You could lose control of your vehicle.
• Unequal tire pressures from one side of the vehicle to the other can cause the vehicle to drift to the right or left.
• Always drive with each tire inflated to the recommended cold tire inflation pressure.
