Warning! G
It is the driver’s responsibility to calibrate
the TPMS on the recommended cold infla-
tion pressure. Underinflated tires affect the
ability to steer or brake the vehicle. You
might lose control over the vehicle.
i
Restart the TPMS after adjusting the tire in-
flation pressure to the inflation pressure recom-
mended for the vehicle operating condition. Tire
pressure should only be adjusted on cold tires.
Observe the recommended tire inflation pres-
sure on the Tire and Loading Information placard
on the driver’s door B-pillar (
page 366).
Some vehicles may have supplemental tire infla-
tion pressure information for driving at high
speeds (
page 372) or for vehicle loads less
than the maximum loaded vehicle condition
(
page 372). If such information is provided, it
can be found on the inside of the fuel filler flap.
