Safety
WARNING!
• Improperly inflated tires are dangerous and can
cause collisions.
• Under-inflation increases tire flexing and can result
in tire over-heating and failure.
• Over-inflation reduces a tire’s ability to cushion
shock. Objects on the road and chuckholes can
cause damage that result in tire failure.
• Over-inflated or under-inflated tires can affect
vehicle handling and can fail suddenly, resulting
in loss of vehicle control.
• Unequal tire pressures can cause steering problems. You could lose control of
your vehicle.
• Unequal tire pressures from one side of the vehicle
to the other can cause the vehicle to drift to
the right or left.
• Always drive with each tire inflated to the recommended
cold tire inflation pressure.
