Checking tire inflation pressure
manually
Follow the steps below to achieve correct
tire inflation pressure:
̈ Remove the cap from the valve on one
tire.
̈ Firmly press a tire gauge onto the
valve.
̈ Read tire inflation pressure on tire
gauge and check against the recom-
mended tire inflation pressure on the
placard on the driver’s door B-pillar
(
୴ page 267). If necessary, add air to
achieve the recommended tire inflation
pressure.
̈ Install the valve cap.
̈ Repeat this procedure for each tire.
Checking tire inflation pressure
electronically with the Tire Pressure
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Warning! G
Follow recommend tire inflation pressures.
Do not underinflate tires. Underinflated tires
wear excessively and/or unevenly,
adversely affect handling and fuel economy,
and are more likely to fail from being
overheated.
Do not overinflate tires. Overinflated tires
can adversely affect handling and ride
comfort, wear unevenly, increase stopping
distance, and result in sudden deflation
(blowout) because they are more likely to
become punctured or damaged by road
debris, potholes etc.
Do not overload the tires by exceeding the
specified load limit or vehicle capacity
weight as indicated on the placard on the
driver’s door B-pillar. Overloading the tires
can overheat them, possibly causing a
blowout.
i
If you have overfilled the tire, release tire in-
flation pressure by pushing the metal stem of the
valve with e.g. a tip of a pen. Then recheck the
tire inflation pressure with the tire gauge.
