Poorly maintained and improperly

WARNING (Continued)

.

Underinflated tires pose the

same danger as overloaded

tires. The resulting accident

could cause serious injury.

Check all tires frequently to

maintain the recommended

pressure. Tire pressure

should be checked when

your tires are cold. See Tire

Pressure on page 10‑44.

.

Overinflated tires are more

likely to be cut, punctured

or broken by a sudden

impact — such as when you

hit a pothole. Keep tires at

the recommended pressure.

.

Worn, old tires can cause

accidents. If your tread is

badly worn, or if your tires

have been damaged,

replace them.
