Potential problems associated with
underinflated and overinflated tires
Underinflated tires
Follow recommended tire inflation
pressures.
Do not underinflate tires. Underinflated
tires wear excessively and/or unevenly,
adversely affect handling and energy
consumption of the vehicle, and are more
likely to fail from being overheated.
Underinflated tires can
R
cause excessive and uneven tire wear
R
adversely affect energy consumption of
the vehicle
R
lead to tire failure from being
overheated
R
adversely affect handling
characteristics
Overinflated tires
Follow recommended tire inflation
pressures.
Do not overinflate tires. Overinflated
tires can adversely affect handling and
ride comfort, wear unevenly, increase
stopping distance, and result in sudden
deflation (blowout) because they are more
likely to become punctured or damaged by
road debris, potholes etc.
Overinflated tires can
R
adversely affect handling
characteristics
R
cause uneven tire wear

Do not overload the tires by exceeding the
specified load limit as indicated on the
Tire and Loading Information placard on
the driver’s door B‑pillar. Overloading the
tires can overheat them, possibly causing
a blowout. Overloading the tires can also
result in handling or steering problems, or
brake failure.
Check the tire inflation pressure at least
once a month.
Check and adjust the tire inflation
pressure when the tires are cold
(
Checking tire inflation pressure
manually
Follow the steps below to achieve correct
tire inflation pressure:
X
Remove the cap from the valve on one tire.
X
Firmly press a tire gauge onto the valve.
X
Read the tire inflation pressure on tire
gauge and check against the
recommended tire inflation pressure on
the Tire and Loading Information
placard on the driver’s door B‑pillar
