Inflation - Tire Pressure
The Certification or Tire Information label shows
the correct inflation pressures for your tires
when they are cold. Cold means your vehicle has
been sitting for at least three hours or driven
no more than 1 mile (1.6 km).
Notice:
Do not let anyone tell you that
under-inflation or over-inflation is all right. It is
not. If your tires do not have enough air
(under-inflation), you can get the following:
•
Too much flexing
•
Too much heat
•
Tire overloading
•
Premature or irregular wear
•
Poor handling
•
Reduced fuel economy
If your tires have too much air (over-inflation),
you can get the following:
•
Unusual wear
•
Poor handling
•
Rough ride
•
Needless damage from road hazards
When to Check
Check your tires once a month or more.
Also, check the tire pressure of the spare tire if
your vehicle has one.
How to Check
Use a good quality pocket-type gage to check tire
pressure. You cannot tell if your vehicle’s tires
are properly inflated simply by looking at
them. Radial tires may look properly inflated even
when they are underinflated.
Be sure to put the valve caps back on the valve
stems. They help prevent leaks by keeping out dirt
and moisture.
