INFLATION
Air pressure
Maintaining the correct tire pressure is important to the safe operation of the vehicle as well as ensuring long tread life.
Under inflated tires result in:
• Excessive tire side wall flexing that can result in sudden tire failure.
• Excessive tread wear resulting in shortened tire life.
Over inflated tires result in:
• Tire explosion due to excessive pressure.
• Reduced road surface traction.
• Increased vibration from the road surface.
• Excessive tread wear resulting in shortened tire life.
Unequal tire inflation may result in:
• Uneven braking and loss of control of the vehicle.
• Steering pulling to the left or right.
Only check the tire pressure when the tire is cold. When checking tire pressure, you must check all tires including
your spare tire.
The correct tire size and pressure can be found in the specifications list in the manual.
Note: The front and rear tires may have a different tire pressure specification.
This section is one section of a complete service
manual. Before starting any procedure, read all
warnings and instructions that are located in the
Service Guidelines chapter.
WARNING
Incorrect tire inflation can result in sudden failure of
the tire and/or braking / steering problems leading
to loss of control of the vehicle.
Never exceed the maximum pressure as indicated
on the side wall of the tire. Exceeding the maximum
pressure may cause explosive failure of the tire
resulting in severe personal injury.
