CAUTION!
Replacing original tires with tires of a different
size may result in false speedometer and
odometer readings.
TIRE CHAINS (TRACTION
DEVICES)
Due to limited clearance, tire chains or traction
devices are not recommended.
CAUTION!
Damage to the vehicle may result if tire
chains are used.
TIRE ROTATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
Tires on the front and rear axles of vehicles
operate at different loads and perform different
steering, driving, and braking functions. For
these reasons, they wear at unequal rates.
These effects can be reduced by timely rotation
of tires. The benefits of rotation are especially
worthwhile with aggressive tread designs such
as those on all season type tires. Rotation will
increase tread life, help to maintain mud, snow,
and wet traction levels, and contribute to a
smooth, quiet ride.
Refer to the “Service And Warranty Handbook”
for the proper maintenance intervals. The rea-
sons for any rapid or unusual wear should be
corrected prior to rotation being performed.
Tire Rotation
The suggested rotation method for vehicles
equipped with all season tires is the “rearward-
cross” as shown in the following diagram.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR
SYSTEM (TPMS)
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) will
warn the driver of a low tire pressure based on
the vehicle recommended cold placard pres-
sure.
The tire pressure will vary with temperature by
about 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (6.5°C). This
means that when the outside temperature de-
creases, the tire pressure will decrease. Tire
pressure should always be set based on cold
inflation tire pressure. This is defined as the tire
pressure after the vehicle has not been driven
for at least three hours, or driven less than
1 mile (1.6 km) after a three hour period. The
cold tire inflation pressure must not exceed the
maximum inflation pressure molded into the tire
sidewall. Refer to “Tires – General Information”
in “Starting And Operating” for information on
how to properly inflate the vehicle’s tires. The
tire pressure will also increase as the vehicle is
driven - this is normal and there should be no
adjustment for this increased pressure.
The TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire
pressure if the tire pressure falls below the
low-pressure warning limit for any reason, in-
cluding low temperature effects and natural
pressure loss through the tire.
The TPMS will continue to warn the driver of low
tire pressure as long as the condition exists, and
will not turn off until the tire pressure is at or
above the recommended cold placard pressure.
Once the low tire pressure warning (Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring [TPM] Telltale Light) illuminates,
you must increase the tire pressure to the
recommended cold placard pressure in order for
the “TPM Telltale Light” to turn off. The system
will automatically update and the “TPM Telltale
Light” will turn off once the system receives the
updated tire pressures. The vehicle may need to
be driven for up to 10 minutes above 15 mph
(24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive this
information.
