Tire
Pressure
The Tire-Loading Information label
which
is
on
the driver’s door shows the
correct inflation pressures for your
tires, when they’re cold. “Cold” means
your vehicle has been sitting for at
least three hours or driven
no
more
than
a
mile.
If your vehicle is equipped with
P245/50ZR16 tires and you’ll be
driving at speeds higher than 100 mph
(160
km/h)
where it
is
legal, raise the
“cold” inflation pressure of each tire
to
35
psi (240 Pa). When you end this
very high speed driving, reduce the
“cold” inflation pressures to those
listed
on
the Tire Loading Information
label.
NOTICE:
