Maintenance of the tires
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when
cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle man-
ufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label (tire and load
information label). (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size
indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label [tire and load
information label], you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for
those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS-tire pressure warning system) that illumi-
nates a low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light) when one or
more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low
tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light) illuminates, you should stop
and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper
pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to over-
heat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency
and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) is not a substitute
for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trig-
ger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning
light).

Tire inflation pressure
(Recommended cold tire
inflation pressure)Driving under normal conditions
Front: 32 psi (220 kPa, 2.2 kgf/cm
2 or bar)*
Rear: 32 psi (220 kPa, 2.2 kgf/cm2 or bar)*
Spare: 60 psi (420 kPa, 4.2 kgf/cm2 or bar)
*: When driving at high speeds above 100 mph (160 km/h), in countries where such
speeds are permitted by law, add 3 psi
(20 kPa, 0.2 kgf/cm
2 or bar) to the front
tires and rear tires. Never exceed the
maximum cold tire inflation pressure
indicated on the tire sidewall.
