5. Add air to the tire as needed. If too much air is added, press the core of the valve stem briefly with the tip of the gauge stem to release pressure. Recheck the pressure and add or release air as needed. 6. Install the valve stem cap. 7. Check the pressure of all other tires, including the spare. Size Cold Tire Inflation Pressure High Speed/ Maximum Load Cold Tire Inflation Pressure 240 kPa, 35 PSI 240 kPa, 35 PSI 260 kPa, 38 PSI 240 kPa, 35 PSI 240 kPa, 35 PSI 260 kPa, 38 PSI N/A WDI0394 LDI0393 Checking tire pressure 1. Remove the valve stem cap from the tire. 2. Press the pressure gauge squarely onto the valve stem. Do not press too hard or force the valve stem sideways, or air will escape. If the hissing of air escaping from the tire is heard while checking the pressure, reposition the gauge to eliminate this leakage. 3. Remove the gauge. 4. Read the tire pressure on the gauge stem and compare to the specification shown on the Tire and Loading Information label.
