NOTICE

ś It is permissible to add 3 psi to the standard tire pressure specification if colder

temperatures are expected soon.

Tires typically lose 1psi (7kPa) for every 12°F temperature drop. If extreme

temperature variations are expected, recheck your tire pressure as necessary to

keep them properly inflated.

ś Tire inflation pressures will vary with changes in elevation. If driving in areas of

higher or lower elevation, be sure to check and adjust for proper tire inflation.

CAUTION

ś When replacing tires, use the same size originally supplied with the vehicle.

Using tires of a different size can damage the related parts or not work properly.

ś When replacing tires, ALWAYS use the same size, type, construction and tread

pattern supplied with the vehicle for all tires.

Seats & Safety System

Seat belts must be snug against your

hips and chest to work properly. When

the seatback is reclined, the shoulder

belt cannot do its job because it will not

be snug against your chest. Instead,

it will be in front of you. During an

accident, you could be thrown into the

seat belt, causing neck or other injuries.
