STARTINGANDOPERATING
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and
stoppingability.
CAUTION!
After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure al-
waysreinstallthevalvestemcap.Thiswillprevent
moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem,
which could damage the Tire Pressure Monitoring
Sensor.
