manufacturer. These air pressures may differ from those found on the certification label. However, they
should never exceed the tire limitation for load or air pressure.
Tire Safety Tips
Preventing Tire Damage
• Slow down if you have to go over a pothole or other object in the road.
• Do not run over curbs or other foreign objects in the roadway, and try not to strike the
curb when parking.
Tire Safety Checklist
 Check tire pressure regularly (at least once a month), including the spare.
 Inspect tires for uneven wear patterns on the tread, cracks, foreign objects, or other signs of
wear or trauma.
 Remove bits of glass and foreign objects wedged in the tread.
 Make sure your tire valves have valve caps.

Check tire pressure before going on a long trip.
 Do not overload your vehicle. Check the Tire Information and Loading Placard or User’s
Manual for the maximum recommended load for the vehicle.
Section Two:
Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit
1. Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed
XXX lbs” on your vehicles placard.
2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in your
vehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kilograms or XXX
pounds.
4. The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage capacity. For example,
if the “XXX” equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb. passengers in your vehicle, the
amount of available cargo and luggage capacity is 650 lbs. (1400-750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.)
5. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight
may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage capacity calculated in Step #4.
6. If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be transferred to your
vehicle. Consult this section to determine how this reduces the available cargo and luggage
capacity of your vehicle.
