WHEELS AND TIRES
Follow the tire maintenance procedures as instructed in
this manual and on the labels on the vehicle.
Always use the approved size and type of replacement
tires. See Vehicle Specifications for the proper tire type
and size.
Worn, improperly inflated, improper
sized, or incorrectly installed tires
will affect vehicle handling and
could cause an accident resulting in severe injury or
death.
Inflate all tires to the same pressure. Operating with
unequal or incorrect pressure can adversely affect
steering and handling and could cause an accident
resulting in severe injury or death.
To decrease the risk of tire explosion, do not exceed
the tire inflation rating on the tire sidewall. Make
sure the tires are properly inflated at all times of
operation. See Tire Pressure on page 11.
To decrease the risk of tire explosion, inflate small
amounts of air into the tire at intervals to allow the
bead to seat properly. Because of the low volume of
the small tires, over inflation can occur in seconds.
Never exceed the tire inflation pressure rating on
the tire sidewall when seating a bead. Protect your
face and eyes when you remove a valve core.
When you remove the wheels, use only sockets
made for impact wrenches to decrease the risk of
injury by a broken socket.
Do not use tires with a low rated pressure. Do not
use tires that have a recommended tire inflation
pressure less than the tire inflation pressure recom-
mended in the owner’s manual.
Do not over inflate the tires. Excess pressure can
cause the tire to separate from the wheel or cause a
tire explosion.
Tire Pressure
Maintaining correct tire inflation pressure is essential for
safe vehicle operation. You can vary the inflation pres-
sure, within the recommended range to suit the condition
of the terrain.

NOTICE: Tire plug tools and plugs are available at
automotive outlets. The tire does not have to be
removed from the wheel to install the tire plug.
Use a tire plug to repair small holes in the tread part of the
tire. For large holes or holes/cuts in the tire sidewall, the
tire must be replaced.
1.
Remove the wheel from the vehicle. See
2.
Locate the leak in the tire.
i.
If the tire is very low or flat, fully inflate the
tire.
ii. Brush soapy water over the surface of the
tire. Air bubbles will be visible where the air
is leaking from the tire.
iii. Mark the hole with chalk.
4.
Install the plug according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
5.
Install the wheel on the vehicle. See
