Note: If you have to drive a distance to get air for your tire(s), check

and record the tire pressure first and add the appropriate air pressure

when you get to the pump. It is normal for tires to heat up and the air

pressure inside to go up as you drive.

2. Remove the cap from the valve on one tire, then firmly press the tire

gauge onto the valve and measure the pressure.

3. Add enough air to reach the recommended air pressure.

Note: If you overfill the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in

the center of the valve. Then recheck the pressure with your tire gauge.

4. Replace the valve cap.

5. Repeat this procedure for each tire, including the spare.

Note: Some spare tires operate at a higher inflation pressure than the

other tires. For T-type/mini-spare tires (see Dissimilar Spare

Tire/Wheel Information section for description): Store and maintain at

60 psi (4.15 bar). For Full Size and Dissimilar spare tires (see

Dissimilar Spare Tire/Wheel Information section for description):

Store and maintain at the higher of the front and rear inflation pressure

as shown on the Tire Label.

6. Visually inspect the tires to make sure there are no nails or other

objects embedded that could poke a hole in the tire and cause an air

leak.

7. Check the sidewalls to make sure there are no gouges, cuts or bulges.

TIRE CARE

Inspecting your tires

Periodically inspect the tire treads for uneven or excessive wear and

remove objects such as stones, nails or glass that may be wedged in the

tread grooves. Check for holes or cuts that may permit air leakage from

the tire and make necessary repairs. Also inspect the tire sidewalls for

cracking, cuts, bruises and other signs of damage or excessive wear. If

internal damage to the tire is suspected, have the tire demounted and

inspected in case it needs to be repaired or replaced. For your safety,

tires that are damaged or show signs of excessive wear should not be

used because they are more likely to blow out or fail.

Improper or inadequate vehicle maintenance can cause tires to wear

abnormally. Inspect all your tires, including the spare, frequently, and

replace them if one or more of the following conditions exist:
