Hidden damage
Usually, it is difficult to detect the tire and rim
damage. When the vehicle is running, if you
feel it vibrates abnormally or pulls to one side,
this indicates a trouble develops in a certain
tire. If this happens, drive your vehicle to your
dealer to have the tires checked.
Warning
You cannot get the adhesion from a new
tire during the first 50
0 k
m, so, drive your
vehicle at a moderate speed with care. To
prevent accidents.
•
The tire which has not been run in
or has been damaged provides in
-
sufficient adhesion, directly affect-
ing the braking effect.
•
Don't use damaged tires; otherwise,
it may cause accidents. Because
the damaged tires during traveling
may be blown and cause traffic ac
-
cidents and injure persons.
•
Tire pressure must comply with
specifications; otherwise, it may
cause accidents. If the tire is un-
derinflated, high-speed driving will
cause tire deflection, resulting in
tire overheating which may lead to
tire peeling off or burst.
•
Do not use any tire which is dam-
aged or worn down to its wear indi-
cators. Be sure to replace it timely.
•
Try to avoid using a tire more than
six years old. If necessary, be sure
to drive at low speed with extra
care.
•
Do not use any old wheel and tire
of dubious background under any
circumstances. Such wheel and tire,
which can be damaged invisibly, will
cause loss of control while driving,
resulting in accidents.
•
When the vehicle is running, if you
feel it vibrates abnormally or pulls
to one side, be sure to stop the
vehicle in a safe place immediately
and check the tires for damage.
