. If you feel unusual vibration
while driving or find it difficult to
steer the vehicle in a straight
line, one of the tires and/or
wheels may be damaged. Drive
slowly to the nearest authorized
SUBARU dealer and have the
vehicle inspected.
TIRE PRESSURES AND WEAR
s11av04
Maintaining the correct tire pres-
sures helps to maximize the tires’
service lives and is essential for
good running performance. Check
and, if necessary, adjust the pres-
sure of each tire and the spare (if
equipped) at least once a month
and before any long journey.
Tire inflation pressure label
S_B02370-MW
Check the tire pressures when the
tires are cold. Use a pressure
gauge to adjust the tire pressures
to the values shown on the tire
inflation pressure label. The tire
inflation pressure label is located
on the door pillar on the driver’s
side.
Driving even a short distance
warms up the tires and increases
the tire pressures. Also, the tire
pressures are affected by the out-
side temperature. It is best to
check tire pressure outdoors be-
fore driving the vehicle.
When a tire becomes warm, the air
inside it expands, causing the tire
pressure to increase. Be careful
not to mistakenly release air from a
warm tire to reduce its pressure.
NOTE
. The air pressure in a tire in-
creases by approximately 4.3
psi (30 kPa, 0.3 kgf/cm
2
) when
the tire becomes warm.
. The tires are considered cold
when the vehicle has been
parked for at least 3 hours or
has been driven less than 1 mile
(1.6 km).
WARNING
Do not let air out of warm tires to
adjust pressure. Doing so will
result in low tire pressure.
Incorrect tire pressures detract
from controllability and ride com-
fort, and they cause the tires to
wear abnormally.
