Look for the manufacturer’s recommended
tire pressure listed on the sticker usually
located on the driver’s-side door edge or
door jamb area. Example:
This chart shows you how underinfl ation
can create an overload on tires.
Check your tire pressure every month to make sure it’s
up to specifi cation, especially before long trips or carrying
extra weight.
Lower pressure increases heat.

TIRE PRESSURE—MONTHLY
CHECK
For accuracy, check your infl ation pressure
with a tire gauge when tires are cold. Driv-
ing heats up tires and makes the reading incorrect.
a) Remove tire valve cap.
b) Place the end of the
tire gauge over valve.
c) Press the tire gauge
straight and fi rmly until
the scale extends.
d) If needed, increase
pressure and recheck
with the tire gauge.
e) Replace valve cap.
