If you have a flat tire, see the “In case of
emergency” section of this manual.
TIRE PRESSURE
Tire pressure monitoring system
This vehicle is equipped with the tire pressure
monitoring system. It monitors tire pressure of all
tires except the spare. When the low tire pres-
sure warning light is lit, one or more of your tires is
significantly underinflated.
The tire pressure monitoring system will activate
only when the vehicle is driven at speeds above
16 MPH (26 km/h) . Also, this system may not
detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for ex-
ample a flat tire while driving) .
For more details, refer to “Low tire pressure warn-
ing light” in the “Instruments and controls” sec-
tion, ”Tire pressure information” in the “Display
screen, heater, air conditioner and audio sys-
tems” section, “Tire pressure monitoring system”
in the “Starting and driving” section, and “Flat
tire” in the “In case of emergency” section.
Tire inflation pressure
Check the tire pressures (including the
spare) often and always prior to long dis-
tance trips. The recommended tire pres-
sure specifications are shown on the FM-VSS label or the Tire and Loading
Information label (if so equipped) under
the9Recommended Cold Tire Inflation
Pressure9heading. The Tire and Loading
Information label is affixed to the driver
side center pillar. Tire pressures should
be checked regularly because:
cMost tires naturally lose air over time.
cTires can lose air suddenly when
driven over potholes or other objects
or if the vehicle strikes a curb while
parking.
The tire pressures should be checked
when the tires are cold. The tires are
considered COLD after the vehicle has
been parked for 3 or more hours, or driven
less than 1 mile (1.6 km) at moderate
speeds.
Incorrect tire pressure, including un-
der inflation, may adversely affect
tire life and vehicle handling.
WARNING
cImproperly inflated tires can fail
suddenly and cause an accident.
cThe Gross Maximum Weight rat-
ing is located on the FMVSS la-
bel. The vehicle weight capacity
is indicated on the Tire and Load-
ing Information label (if so
equipped) . Do not load your ve-
hicle beyond this capacity. Over-
loading your vehicle may result in
reduced tire life, unsafe operat-
ing conditions due to premature
tire failure, or unfavorable han-
dling characteristics and could
also lead to a serious accident.
Loading beyond the specified ca-
pacity may also result in failure of
other vehicle components.
cBefore taking a long trip, or
whenever you heavily load your
vehicle, use a tire pressure gauge
to ensure that the tire pressures
are at the specified level.
