inflation pressure HONDA ACCORD SEDAN 2003 Owner's Manual (in English)

Use a gauge to measure the air
pressure at least once a month. Even
tires that are in good condition may
lose one to two psi (10 to 20 kPa, 0.1
to 0.2 kgf /cm ) per month.
Remember to check the spare tire at

other tires.
Check the pressure in the tires when
they are cold. This means the car
has been parked f or at least three
hours. If you have to drive the car
bef ore checking the tire pressure,
the tires can still be considered
‘‘cold’’ if you drive less than 1 mile
(1.6 km).

provides the best combination of
handling, tread lif e, and riding
comf ort. Underinf lated tires wear

ride more harshly, are more prone to
damage f rom road hazards, and wear

We recommend that you visually
check your tires every day. If you
think a tire might be low, check it
immediately with a tire gauge.
