4. Usage and Maintenance
Non-full Size Tire
The spare tire is different from the standard tire in
such aspects as structure, pattern, speed grade
and load index. Therefore, the spare tire cannot
replace the standard tire.
Please replace the spare tire as soon as possible
to avoid potential hazards due to prolonged using.
Warning
●
The spare tire can only be used
temporarily in emergency
circumstances, with the maximum
speed not exceeding 80 km/ h and the
traveling mileage not exceeding 100
km.
●
The service life of the spare tire is
about 3 years, after which it shall be
replaced.
Summer Tire
The tread depth shall not be less than 3mm.
A very high risk of hydroplaning exists when the
tread depth is less than 3mm.
Winter Tire
Winter tire can improve the driving performance of
vehicles on snow and ice covered roads.
•
Winter tires shall be used on all four wheels.
•
Only winter tire allowable for this vehicle can
be used.
•
It should be noted that the maximum speed
applicable to winter tire is relatively low.
•
It should be noted that sufficient tread depth
shall be reserved on the tread of winter tire
(The tread depth shall not be less than 4mm,
otherwise the winter applicability will be
restricted).
•
After installing the tire, inspect the inflation
pressure of the tire.
Warning
●
The winter and summer tires are
designed according to the traveling
conditions on their respective typical
lanes under corresponding season
conditions. Winter tire is recommended
in winter. At low temperature, the
adaptability of summer tire is obviously
poor, and it may lose adhesive force
and braking capacity.
●
Under severe cold conditions, if a
summer tire is used, crack may appear
on the tire, which will damage the tire
completely, and cause excessive tire
noise and out of balance.
