TIRE PRESSURE
Driving a vehicle with incorrect tire pressure may result in the
following consequences:
• Reduce fuel efficiency
• Reduced driving comfort and shortened tire life
• Safety reduction
When checking tire pressure, follow the below instructions:
Recommended
tire pressures
Front wheels Rear wheels
7.0psi
(
48.3kPa
)
7.0psi
(
48.3kPa
)
• Inspection can only be carried out after the tire cools down.
• If the vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours, or has not
driven more than 1.5km. Rechecking at this time can get an
accurate reading of the cold tire inflation pressure.
• Do use tire pressure gauges. Tire appearance can sometimes
be misleading. In addition, even a few pounds less air in a tire
can affect driving and handling performance.
• Don't reduce the tire pressure after driving. Increased tire
pressure is normal after driving.
