Do not use products such as tire dressings on tires as
this can decrease traction.
Tire Inspection
Before each ride, inspect the tire sidewalls, road contact
surface and tread base. If inspection reveals cuts,
punctures, cracks, or other wear or damage, replace the
tire before driving the FUV.
Do not drive the FUV if a tire is damaged, excessively
worn, or inflated to an incorrect pressure.
Check tires regularly for wear, and ensure there are no
cuts, bulges or exposure of the ply/cord structure.
Tire Wear
Adequate tread depth is important for proper tire
performance. Tires with inadequate tread depth are more
likely to hydroplane in wet conditions and should not be
used.
Replace the tires when tread depth wears to the minimum
of 2/32" (1.6 mm).
The FUV is fitted with tires that have wear indicators
molded into the tread pattern. When the tire has been
worn down to the minimum recommended tread depth,
the indicators start to appear at the surface of the tread
pattern, producing the effect of a continuous band of
rubber across the width of the tire.
For performance and safety, replace tires before the wear
indicators are visible.
