Recommended cold tire inflation pressures
All tire pressures should be checked when the tires are cold. "Cold Tires" means the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours or driven less than one mile (1.6 km).
Recommended pressures must be maintained for the best ride, vehicle handling, and minimum tire wear.
For recommended inflation pressure, refer to More Details.
All specifications (sizes and pressures) are on a label attached to the driver's side center pillar.
Tire Underinflation
Inflate your tires consistent with the instructions provided in this manual. Severe underinflation (under 10 psi (70 kPa)) can lead to severe heat build-up, cause blowouts, tread separation and other failures that can result in the of vehicle control. This risk is much higher on hot days and when driving for long periods at high speeds.
Under-inflated tires may result in excessive wear, poor handling, reduced fuel economy, deformation of tires and/or wheels, harsh ride conditions, increased possibility for damage from road hazards, or result in failure.
Tire pressure
Always observe the following:
-
Check tire pressure when the tires are cold. (after vehicle has been sitting for at least three hours or driven no more than one mile (1.6 km)).
-
Check the pressure of your spare tire each time you check the pressure of the service.
-
Never overload your vehicle. Do not to overload a vehicle luggage rack if your vehicle is equipped with one.
-
Warm tires normally exceed recommended cold tire pressures by 4 to 6 psi (28 to 41 kPa). Do not release air from warm tires to adjust the pressure or the tires will be underinflated.
Tire Inflation
Overinflation or underinflation can reduce tire life, adversely affect vehicle handling, and lead to sudden tire failure. This could result in loss of vehicle control and potential injury.
