TIRE INSPECTION
Tires should be checked and inflated with the engine shut off.
If a tire’s ground contacting curve is abnormal, check it with an air pressure gauge and inflate it to the
specified pressure.
Tires pressure must be checked with an air pressure gauge when cold.
PLEASE REFER TO SPECIFICATIONS FOR STANDARD TIRE PRESSURE
Visual check tires for frontal and lateral side walls for crack or damage.
Visual check tires for any nails or small stones wedged in the tread.
Check the “tread wear indicator” condition to see if tread groove depth is insufficient.
A tire with a wear bar showing is worn out and should be replaced immediately.
CAUTION:
Abnormal tire pressure, wear, or crack is the most important cause that results in the loss control of the
steering handle and a punctured tire(s).
