CONSUMER INFORMATION & REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS 8 3 I030A02S-AAT RECOMMENDED INFLATION PRESSURES These pressures were chosen to provide the most satisfactory combination of ride comfort, tire wear and stability under normal conditions. Tire pressures should be checked at least monthly. Proper tire inflation pressures should be maintained for these reasons: o Lower-than-recommended tire pressures cause uneven tread wear and poor handling. o Higher-than-recommended tire pressures increase the chance of damage from impacts and cause uneven tread wear. I040A01S-AAT SNOW TIRES If you equip your car with snow tires, they should be the same size and have the same load capacity as the original tires. Snow tires should be installed on all four wheels; otherwise, poor handling may result. Snow tires should carry 4 psi (28 kPa) more air pressure than the pressure recommended for the standard tires on the tire label on the driver side center pillar outer panel, or up to the maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall whichever is less. Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120 km/h) when your car is equipped with snow tires. ! I030A01E CAUTION: Always observe the following: o Check pressures when the tires are cold. That is, after the car has been parked for at least three hours and hasn't been driven more than one mile or 1.6 km since starting up. o Check the pressure of your spare tire each time you check the pressure of other tires. o Never overload your car. Be especially careful about overloading if you equip your car with a luggage rack or car top carrier. The tire label located on the driver's side center pillar outer panel gives the tire pressures recommended for your vehicle.
