Under- or over-inflation significantly shortens the
service life of your tires and affects the handling

driven at higher speeds. Incorrect tire pressure
causes increased wear and even sudden tire
failure and blowouts.
Therefore, tire pressure should be checked at
least once a month and always before long trips.
The specified tire inflation pressure applies to a
cold tire. When tires are warm, the pressure will
be higher than when the tires are cold.
