(affixed to either the door hinge

pillar, door-latch post, or the door

edge that meets the door-latch

post, next to the driver's seating

position), or Tire Label which is

located on the B-Pillar or the edge

of the driver’s door. Failure to

follow the tire pressure

recommendations can cause

uneven treadwear patterns and

adversely affect the way your

vehicle handles

Maximum Inflation Pressure is

the tire manufacturer's maximum

permissible pressure and the

pressure at which the maximum

load can be carried by the tire. This

pressure is normally higher than

the manufacturer’s recommended

cold inflation pressure which can

be found on the Safety

Compliance Certification Label

(affixed to either the door hinge

pillar, door-latch post, or the door

edge that meets the door-latch

post, next to the driver's seating

position), or Tire Label which is

located on the B-Pillar or the edge

of the driver’s door. The cold

inflation pressure should never be

set lower than the recommended

pressure on the Safety

Compliance Certification Label or

Tire Label.

When weather temperature

changes occur, tire inflation

pressures also change. A 10°F

(6°C) temperature drop can

cause a corresponding drop of 1

psi (7 kPa) in inflation pressure.

Check your tire pressures

frequently and adjust them to the

proper pressure which can be

found on the Safety Compliance

Certification Label or Tire Label.

To check the pressure in your

tire(s):

1. Make sure the tires are cool,

meaning they are not hot from

driving even a mile.

Note: If you are checking tire

pressure when the tire is hot, (for

example, driven more than 1 mile

[1.6 kilometers]), never bleed or

reduce air pressure. The tires are

hot from driving and it is normal for

pressures to increase above

recommended cold pressures. A

hot tire at or below recommended

cold inflation pressure could be

significantly under-inflated.

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.
