Inflation placard


Tire inflation placard
Check tire inflation pressure regularly.
A table listing the recommended inflation pressure for your vehicle. A tire inflation pressure placard is also located on the driver's side B-pillar (the structural member at the side of the vehicle, at the rear of the driver's door opening). This placard indicates the designation of the factory-mounted tires on your vehicle, as well as load limits and inflation pressure.
NOTE
The placards shown indicate inflation pressure
for the tires installed on the vehicle at
the factory only.
• Use a tire gauge to check the tire inflation
pressure, including the spare, at least once
a month and before long trips. You are
strongly urged to buy a reliable tire pressure
gauge, as automatic service station
gauges may be inaccurate.
• Use the recommended cold inflation pressure
for optimum tire performance and
wear.
• Under-inflation or over-inflation may cause
uneven treadwear patterns.
WARNING
• Under-inflation is the most common
cause of tire failure and may result in
severe tire cracking, tread separation,
or "blow-out," with unexpected loss of
vehicle control and increased risk of
injury.
• Under-inflated tires reduce the load carrying
capacity of your vehicle.
When weather temperature changes occur, tire inflation pressures also change. A 10-degree temperature drop causes a corresponding drop of 1 psi (7 kPa) in inflation pressure. Check your tire pressures frequently and adjust them to the proper pressure, which can be found on the vehicle's tire information placard or certification label.
