Notes on regularly inspecting wheels and tires G WARNING Regularly check the tires for damage. Damaged tires can cause tire inflation pressure loss. As a result, you could lose control of your vehicle. Worn, old tires can cause accidents. If the tire tread is worn to minimum tread depth, or if the tires have sustained damage, replace them. R Regula[...]

If the tire pressures have been set to the lower values for lighter loads and/or lower road speeds, the pressures should be reset to the higher values: R if you want to drive with an increased load and/or R if you want to drive at higher road speeds. i The tire pressures for increased loads and/or higher road speeds, shown in the tire pressure tabl[...]

Observe the recommended tire pressures for cold tires R on the Tire and Loading Information placard on the B-pillar on the driver's side, R in the tire pressure table on the inside of the fuel filler flap, R printed in yellow on the rim of the emergency/collapsible spare wheel (depending on vehicle equipment). Underinflated or overinflated tir[...]

Checking the tire pressures Important safety notes G WARNING Follow recommended tire inflation pressures. Do not underinflate tires. Underinflated tires wear excessively and/or unevenly, adversely affect handling and fuel economy, and are more likely to fail from being overheated. Do not overinflate tires. Overinflated tires can adversely affect ha[...]

As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires are significantly underinflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate the[...]
