NOTICE

  • You may add 3 psi to the standard tire pressure specification if the outside temperature is expected to drop soon. Tires typically lose 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12 °F (7 °C) drop in temperature. If extreme temperature changes are expected, check the tire pressure as necessary to keep the tires properly inflated.
  • Tire pressure may vary with changes in altitude. When driving in areas with higher or lower altitude, be sure to check and adjust the tire inflation to the correct pressure.
  • Do not exceed the maximum inflation pressure marked on the tire sidewall.

CAUTION

When replacing tires, ALWAYS use the same size, type, brand, construction, and tread pattern as supplied with the vehicle. Otherwise, it may damage related parts or cause the system to operate improperly.
