BYD G3 AUTO Owner’s Manual
137
When the tire tread is worn to less
than 4mm in depth, the snow tire
function is lost.
In case of cutting, rupture, crack
exposing cord fabric or abnormal tire
inflation, it means there is internal
damage in the tire and the tire shall
be replaced.
In case of frequent air leakage or
unrepairable cutting or other damage
due to the severity or position, the tire
shall be replaced. When you are not
sure about tire conditions, please
contact BYD service station.
If air leakage occurs on the road, stop
driving immediately. Even a small travel
after air leakage may cause permanent
damage to the tire.
After 6 years’ use, the tire, even if it
has no obvious damage, shall be
inspected by qualified technician.
The tire may deteriorate due to aging
even it has not been used heavily.
This rule also applies to spare tires and
tires in storage.
Replace Tires
Only use a tire with the same
dimension and structure, and the
same or higher load capacity to
replace the tire installed on the car.
Any difference in dimensions and
structure may have serious effect on
operability, passenger comfort,
calibration of speedometer and
odometer, ground clearance and
clearance between car body and tire or
tire chain.
Tips
Please follow the instructions
below. Or it may result in severe
injury.
●
Never use a combination of
radial ply tire, bias belted tire
and diagonal-ply tire on the
same car, or it may lose
operability in driving, leaving
the driver in great danger.
●
Only use tires with dimensions
recommended by the
manufacturer. Or the car may
lose control in driving.
Never replace the tire on BYD G3 with
a used tire.
Tires from unknown origin may pose
great danger.
You are recommended to replace
four tires at one time, or at least, you
shall replace two front/rear tires at
the same time.
For steps of replacing tire, please refer
to “
When Tire Has Air Leakage
” in
Chapter 4.
Keep the wheels in balance after
replacing tires.
Unbalanced tire may pose adverse
effect on auto operability and tire service
life. The tire may lose balance during
normal use. As a result, irregular check
is required to keep the tire in good
balance.
