Engine Coolant Temperature Gage
United StatesCanada
This gage shows the engine coolant temperature.
It also provides an indicator of how hard the vehicle is
working. During a majority of the operation, the gage
reads 210° F (100° C) or less. If a load is being pulled
or going up hills, it is normal for the temperature to
fluctuate and go over the 235° F (113° C) mark.
However, if the gage reaches the 260° F (125° C) mark,
it indicates that the cooling system is working beyond its
capacity.
Oil Pressure Gage
United StatesCanada
The oil pressure gage shows the engine oil pressure
in psi (pounds per square inch) when the engine is
running. Canadian vehicles indicate pressure in
kPa (kilopascals).
Oil pressure should be 29 to 80 psi (200 to 550 kPa).
In certain situations, such as long extended idles on
hot days, it could read as low as 15 psi (105 kPa) and
still be considered normal.

Tires
Inflation - Tire Pressure
Tires need the correct amount of air pressure to operate
effectively.
Notice:
Do not let anyone tell you that
under‐inflation or over‐inflation is all right.
It is not. If your tires do not have enough air
(under‐inflation), you can get the following:
.Too much flexing
.Too much heat
.Tire overloading
.Premature or irregular wear
.Poor handling
.Reduced fuel economy
If your tires have too much air (over‐inflation),
you can get the following:
.Unusual wear
.Poor handling
.Rough ride
.Needless damage from road hazards
A vehicle specific Tire and Loading Information label is
attached to your vehicle. This label shows your
vehicle's original equipment tires and the correct
inflation pressures for your tires when they are cold.
The recommended cold tire inflation pressure, shown
on the label, is the minimum amount of air pressure
needed to support your vehicle's maximum load
carrying capacity.
For additional information regarding how much weight
your vehicle can carry, and an example of the Tire and
Loading Information label, see “Loading Your Vehicle”in
the Index of the owner manual. How you load your
vehicle affects vehicle handling and ride comfort. Never
load your vehicle with more weight than it was designed
to carry.
