GROUNDWORK — Match tire markings to the vehicle label Task: fit-tire-label-match | Content version 2.0.0 Source page: https://csl-12-auto-repair.pages.dev/tasks/fit-tire-label-match/ MODEL / APPLICABILITY [{"modelId":"fit-2015-us","market":"US","year":2015,"engine":"1.5L gasoline","configurations":["all","standard-key","smart-key","halogen","alloy"]}] EXCLUSIONS Other model years and markets; imported Jazz or Fit Hybrid; modified or aftermarket components with a different procedure. PREPARE [ ] Park in a safe place away from traffic. Work with the vehicle stationary, parking brake set and ignition off unless a step explicitly calls for a parked functional check. [ ] Are accessible tire markings and the vehicle’s own doorjamb label readable? [ ] Keep children and pets away from tools, fluids and coin cells. Never enter underneath the vehicle. [ ] Good lighting [ ] Readable driver-doorjamb label [ ] No tire or wheel removal needed OBSERVE & RECORD Observation date: __________ Vehicle / equipment confirmed: __________ Copy actual markings by position, keeping label recommendations separate from sidewall maxima. Front/rear/spare label sizes and cold targets: __________ Accessible fitted tire sizes by wheel: __________ Size comparison: __________ | Choices: All accessible sizes match; Mismatch found; Some unreadable Visible damage and unresolved fitment question: __________ Before care: __________ STEPS 1. [ ] Copy the original front, rear and spare tire sizes from the driver’s doorjamb label. Preserve each position separately. https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/pubs/OM/AH/A5A1515OM/enu/A5A1515OM.pdf#page=387 | PDF page 387 2. [ ] Read the size on each accessible fitted tire sidewall and record the wheel position. Leave an unreadable marking unknown rather than moving or lifting the car for this task. https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/pubs/OM/AH/A5A1515OM/enu/A5A1515OM.pdf#page=387 | PDF page 387 3. [ ] Compare each fitted size with the label. The sidewall’s maximum pressure is a different marking from the vehicle’s specified cold pressure. https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/pubs/OM/AH/A5A1515OM/enu/A5A1515OM.pdf#page=387 | PDF page 387 4. [ ] Note visible bulges, cuts, uneven wear or an apparently low tire. A matching size does not establish good condition or correct pressure. https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/pubs/OM/AH/A5A1515OM/enu/A5A1515OM.pdf#page=386 | PDF page 386 5. [ ] Save a match/mismatch/unknown inventory and refer mismatches or uncertain replacements to a tire professional. Copy the actual label; do not use the manual’s illustrated size example as a universal fitment. https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/pubs/OM/AH/A5A1515OM/enu/A5A1515OM.pdf#page=387 | PDF page 387 6. [ ] Copy actual markings by position, keeping label recommendations separate from sidewall maxima. https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/pubs/OM/AH/A5A1515OM/enu/A5A1515OM.pdf#page=387 | PDF page 387 DECISION CHECKS Are accessible tire markings and the vehicle’s own doorjamb label readable? Yes — ready for this check → Continue with the steps, stopping if the real component differs from the manual. Not yet / not sure → Preparation saved. Return when the condition is confirmed; leave the vehicle untouched. Flat or damaged tire, missing label or an inaccessible marking → Mismatch, unreadable label or damaged tire: obtain tire-service advice before relying on the fitment. How does the fitted-tire inventory compare with the label? Accessible fitted sizes match their recorded label positions → Are the recorded sizes actual vehicle markings, with no unexplained mismatch or visible defect? Mismatch, unreadable label or damaged tire: obtain tire-service advice before relying on the fitment. → Mismatch, unreadable label or damaged tire: obtain tire-service advice before relying on the fitment. I have only prepared the plan → Plan prepared; no physical maintenance result recorded. Are the recorded sizes actual vehicle markings, with no unexplained mismatch or visible defect? Actual readable markings match; condition check recorded → Accessible fitted sizes match their recorded label positions The observation or repeat check is still incomplete → Plan prepared; no physical maintenance result recorded. Mismatch, unreadable marking or visible defect → Mismatch, unreadable label or damaged tire: obtain tire-service advice before relying on the fitment. RECHECK After tire work, do fitted sizes match the confirmed specification and does the service record resolve any original mismatch? After care: __________ Retest: not checked / improved / unchanged / worse If an earlier condition changes, reassess the later checks and result. RESULT CHECK How does the fitted-tire inventory compare with the label? Accessible fitted sizes match their recorded label positions Record only the result you actually observed. A saved web checklist is not confirmation that a vehicle has been repaired. Are the recorded sizes actual vehicle markings, with no unexplained mismatch or visible defect? After tire work, do fitted sizes match the confirmed specification and does the service record resolve any original mismatch? STOP CONDITIONS Flat or damaged tire, missing label or an inaccessible marking Mismatch, unreadable label or damaged tire: obtain tire-service advice before relying on the fitment. A part, label, connector or fastener differs from the cited manual; access requires raising the vehicle; you cannot identify the correct component. SERVICE HANDOFF Take the recorded observations, their dates and any actual work history to the service provider. Mismatch, unreadable label or damaged tire: obtain tire-service advice before relying on the fitment.
