CAUTION: (Continued)
•
Underinflated tires pose the same danger
as overloaded tires. The resulting accident
could cause serious injury. Check all tires
frequently to maintain the recommended
pressure. Tire pressure should be checked
when your tires are cold.
•
Overinflated tires are more likely to be
cut, punctured or broken by a sudden
impact— such as when you hit a pothole.
Keep tires at the recommended pressure.
•
Worn, old tires can cause accidents. If
your tread is badly worn, or if your tires
have been damaged, replace them.
See Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-67, for
inflation pressure adjustment for higher speed
driving.
Tire Sidewall Labeling
Useful information about a tire is molded into its
sidewall. The examples below show a typical passenger
