Note: Some spare tires operate at a higher inflation pressure than the

other tires. For T-type mini-spare tires, see the Dissimilar Spare Tire

and Wheel Assembly Information section. Store and maintain at 60 psi

(4.15 bar). For full-size and dissimilar spare tires, see the Dissimilar

Spare Tire and Wheel Assembly Information section. Store and

maintain at the higher of the front and rear inflation pressure as shown

on the Tire Label.

6. Visually inspect the tires to make sure there are no nails or other

objects embedded that could poke a hole in the tire and cause an air

leak.

7. Check the sidewalls to make sure there are no gouges, cuts or bulges.

Tire Inflation Information

WARNING: An inflated tire and rim can be very dangerous if

improperly used, serviced or maintained. To reduce the risk of

serious injury, never attempt to re-inflate a tire which has been run flat

or seriously under-inflated without first removing the tire from the

wheel assembly for inspection. Do not attempt to add air to tires or

replace tires or wheels without first taking precautions to protect

persons and property.

All tires with Steel Carcass Plies (if equipped):

This type of tire utilizes steel cords in the sidewalls. As such, they

cannot be treated like normal light truck tires. Tire service, including

adjusting tire pressure, must be performed by personnel trained,

supervised and equipped according to Federal Occupational Safety and

Health Administration regulations. For example, during any procedure

involving tire inflation, the technician or individual must utilize a remote

inflation device, and make sure that all persons are clear of the

trajectory area.
