Checking and correcting tire pressure
Check the tire pressure when refueling. The tire pressure should only be corrected when the tires are
cold. With warm tires, correct only when the pressure is too low. The tire temperature (and, thus,
pressure) rises after driving just a few miles.

Warning: Improperly inflated tires will reduce tire life, adversely affect vehicle handling and can
possibly lead to failure resulting in loss of vehicle control without prior warning.

Roadholding
Vehicle load, tire design and inflation pressure are important for proper handling. Therefore check that
the tires are inflated to the recommended pressure according to the vehicle load.
Loads should be distributed so that capacity weight or maximum permissible loads are not exceeded.
It is recommended to use tires of the same make and dimensions on all four wheels.
