Tire inflation – general information
Check tire inflation pressure regularly.
Inflation placard

Tire inflation placard
Tire inflation
See the tire inflation table in Tire inflation –
pressure table (p. 300). A tire inflation pres-
sure placard is also located on the driver's
side B-pillar (the structural member at the
side of the vehicle, at the rear of the driver's
door opening). This placard indicates the des-
ignation of the factory-mounted tires on your
vehicle, as well as load limits and inflation
pressure.
NOTE
•
The placards shown indicate inflation
pressure for the tires installed on the
vehicle at the factory only.
•
A certain amount of air seepage from
the tires occurs naturally and tire pres-
sure fluctuates with seasonal changes
in temperature. Always check tire
pressure regularly.
•
Use a tire gauge to check the tire inflation
pressure, including the spare, at least
once a month and before long trips. You
are strongly urged to buy a reliable tire
pressure gauge, as automatic service sta-
tion gauges may be inaccurate.
•
Use the recommended cold inflation
pressure for optimum tire performance
and wear.
•
Under-inflation or over-inflation may
cause uneven treadwear patterns.
WARNING
•
Under-inflation is the most common
cause of tire failure and may result in
severe tire cracking, tread separation,
or "blow-out," with unexpected loss of
vehicle control and increased risk of
injury.
•
Under-inflated tires reduce the load
carrying capacity of your vehicle.
When weather temperature changes occur,
tire inflation pressures also change. A 10-
degree temperature drop causes a corres-
ponding drop of 1 psi (7 kPa) in inflation pres-
sure. Check your tire pressures frequently
and adjust them to the proper pressure,
which can be found on the vehicle's tire infor-
mation placard or certification label.
