WARNING!
• Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect
vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recom-
mended load capacity for your vehicle. Never overload them.
• Improperly inflated tires are dangerous and can cause collisions. Under-
inflation increases tire flexing and can result in over-heating and tire failure.
Over-inflation reduces a tire’s ability to cushion shock. Objects on the road and
chuck holes can cause damage that results in tire failure. Unequal tire pressures
can cause steering problems. You could lose control of your vehicle. Over-
inflated or under-inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and can fail suddenly,
resulting in loss of vehicle control. Always drive with each tire inflated to the
recommended cold tire inflation pressure.
Tire Maintenance And Replacement
You should follow all maintenance procedures specified by the manufacturer of this
vehicle’s tires. The tires originally installed on this vehicle were designed to conform
to EPA greenhouse gas standards and NHTSA fuel economy standards.
If you need to replace your tires, you should do so with tires that meet those
standards. Check with your authorized dealer or with the tire manufacturer for
appropriate replacement tires.
Spare Tires — If Equipped
NOTE:
For vehicles equipped with Tire Service Kit instead of a spare tire, please refer to the
“Tire Service Kit” section located in your Owner’s Information kit for further
information.
CAUTION!
Because of the reduced ground clearance, do not take your vehicle through an
automatic car wash with a compact or limited-use temporary spare installed.
Damage to the vehicle may result.
Spare Tire Matching Original Equipped Tire And Wheel — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with a spare tire and wheel equivalent in look and
function to the original equipment tire and wheel found on the front or rear axle of your
vehicle. This spare tire may be used in the tire rotation for your vehicle. If your vehicle
has this option, refer to an authorized tire dealer for the recommended tire rotation
pattern.
