CHECKING THE TIRES
1. Measure:
• tire pressure (cold tire pressure)
Out of specification
→
Adjust.
NOTE:
• The tire pressure gauge 1 is included as
standard equipment.
• If dust or the like is stuck to this gauge, it will
not provide the correct readings. Therefore,
take two measurements of the tire’s pressure
and use the second reading.
WARNING
Uneven or improper tire pressure may
adversely affect the handling of this vehicle
and may cause loss of control.
• Maintain proper tire pressures.
• Set tire pressures when the tires are cold.
• Tire pressures must be equal in both front
tires and equal in both rear tires.
2. Check:
• tire surfaces
Wear/damage
