• Inflate the tire to seat the tire bead.
$ Maximum tire bead seat pressure
Front : 250 kPa (2.5 kgf/cm

, 36 psi)
Rear : 250 kPa (2.5 kgf/cm
2
, 36 psi)
#
Place the tire under a protective tire cage or similar pro-
tective covering device before inflating the tire. To mini-
mize the possibilty of tire damage when seating the tire
bead, never exceed the MAXIMUM TIRE BEAD SEAT
PRESSURE rating shown on the tire.
NOTE:
Check the “rim line” 1 cast on the tire side walls. It must be equi-
distant from the wheel rim all the way around. If the distance be-
tween the rim line and the wheel rim varies this indicates that the
bead is not properly seated. If this is so, deflate the tire com-
pletely, and unseat the tire bead on both sides. Then, coat the
bead with clean water, and re-seat the tire.
• Adjust the tire pressure to specification.
$ Cold inflation tire pressure

Before inflating the tire, chack the MAXIMUM OPERAT-
ING PRESSURE rating of the tire. This is indicated by a
“
” following the tire size shown on the sidewall. The
number of “
”on the tire indicates the maximum oper-
ating pressure.
