Tire Tread Condition Tire Pressure
A low pressure gauge is provided in
the tool kit, so you can measure the
air pressure in your vehicle’s tires.
Check the air pressure in all tires
before each use of the vehicle.
Improper air pressure can affect han-
dling, steering response, traction, tire
life and rider comfort. Be sure that the
tires are inflated to the pressures
shown below. Tire pressure should
only be measured or adjusted when
the tires are cold, or misleading mea-
surements can result.

WARNING
The use of very worn tires can be
hazardous.
The traction of the vehicle will be
decreased with worn tires. This
increases your risk of having an
accident.
Replace the front and rear tires
when the depth on the tread is 4.0
mm (0.16 in) or less.

WARNING
Overfilling the tires can be hazard-
ous.
If you put too much air into a tire,
the tire may burst, causing severe
injury.
Check the air pressure from time
to time while inflating the tire
gradually, until the specified pres-
sure is obtained.
