SERVICING YOUR TIRES
Checking the tire pressure
•
Use an accurate tire pressure gauge.
•
Check the tire pressure when tires are
cold,
after the vehicle has
been parked for at least 3 hours or has been driven less than 5 km (3
miles). As you drive, the temperature in the tire warms up, increasing
the tire pressure.
•
Adjust tire pressure to recommended specifications found on the
Certification Label. Tire pressure information can also be found on the
Tire Information label located on the inside of the fuel filler door.
•
Check tires for proper air pressure monthly. Check spare tire for
proper air pressure every six months.
Check that the externally mounted spare tire is tight. Refer to
Stowing
the flat/spare tire
of the tire changing section in the
Roadside
Emergencies
chapter
Improperly inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and can fail
suddenly, possibly resulting in loss of vehicle control, vehicle
rollover and/or personal injury.
Tire rotation
Because your vehicle’s tires perform different jobs, they often wear
differently. To make sure your tires wear evenly and last longer, rotate
them as indicated in the scheduled maintenance guide. If you notice that
the tires wear unevenly, have them checked.
