The tire pressure table applies only for normal tires, for all factory installed tire sizes.
The tire pressures for relevant model are found on a sticker. This sticker is on the inside of the fuel filler door or on the B-pillar.
Observe that the inflation pressure specifications on the sticker refer to the air pressure of cold tires. Do not reduce tire pressure when the tires are warm.
Adjust the tire pressure to vehicle load.
If the tire pressure for the spare wheel is not listed, then fill the spare wheel with the highest tire pressure specified for the vehicle.
On vehicles with tire pressure monitoring display, make sure that a basic setting is performed after each pressure adjustment. Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring Display --, PERFORM THE BASIC SETTING .
Winter tires
Recommended winter tires, refer to General Information .
If winter tires are installed, a label informing the customer of the speed limit must be affixed inside the passenger compartment so that it is clearly visible.
On winter tires, the tire pressure must no longer be increased. But this is true only when the winter tires being used are the exact same size as the standard summer tire, and the speed index does not exceed "H". If you deviate from this, then you must follow the tire manufacturer recommendations.
