WHEELS AND TIRES affect tire life and vehicle handling. COLD pressure: After vehicle has been parked for three hours or more or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km). WARNING ● The vehicle weight capacity is indicated on the tire placard. Do not load your vehicle beyond this capacity. Overloading your vehicle may result in reduced tire life, unsafe operating conditions due to premature tire failure, or unfavorable handling characteristics and could also lead to a serious accident. Loading beyond the specified capacity may also result in failure of other vehicle components. ● Before taking a long trip, or whenever you have loaded your vehicle heavily, use a tire pressure gauge to ensure that the tire pressure is at the specified level. ● Do not drive your vehicle over 85 MPH (137 km/h) unless it is equipped with high capability tires. 7-25 Driving faster than 85 MPH (137 km/h) may result in tire failure, loss of control and possible injury. Types of tires CAUTION When changing or replacing tires, be sure all four tires are of the same type (i.e., Summer, All Season or Snow) and construction.

Maximum inflation pressure
Do not exceed the maximum inflation pres-
sures shown on the side wall of the tire.
Tire inflation pressure
Periodically check the tire pressure (includ-
ing spare). Tire pressure should be checked
when tires are COLD. COLD tire pressures
are shown on the tire placard affixed to the
glove box lid.
Incorrect tire pressure may adversely
affect tire life and vehicle handling.
COLD pressure:
After
vehicle
has
been
parked
for
three hours or more or driven less
than 1 mile (1.6 km).
WARNING
●
The vehicle weight capacity is indi-
cated on the tire placard. Do not load
your vehicle beyond this capacity.
Overloading your vehicle may result
in reduced tire life, unsafe operating
conditions due to premature tire fail-
ure, or unfavorable handling charac-
teristics and could also lead to a
serious
accident.
Loading
beyond
the specified capacity may also re-
sult
in
failure
of
other
vehicle
components.
●
Before taking a long trip, or when-
ever you have loaded your vehicle
heavily, use a tire pressure gauge to
ensure that the tire pressure is at the
specified level.
●
Do not drive your vehicle over 85
MPH (137 km/h) unless it is equipped
with high capability tires.
Driving
faster
than
85
MPH
(137
km/h) may result in tire failure, loss
of control and possible injury.

about tire type, size, speed rating and
availability.
Replacement
tires
may
have a lower speed rating than the
factory equipped tires, and may not
match the potential maximum vehicle
speed.
Never
exceed
the
maximum
speed rating of the tire.
All season tires
