TREAD WEAR
It is important to periodically inspect each tires tread for
wear. Driving with inadequate tread increases the risk
of loosing control of the vehicle due to hydroplaning on
a wet road surface. It also increases the risk of a flat tire
due to road debris. Extreme tire wear can result in sudden
tire failure and loss of control of the vehicle.
Refer to the maintenance schedule in this manual for the
recommended interval.
Minimum recommended tread depth is 1/16 inch (1.6
mm). There are a series of tread depth wear indicators
around the circumference of the tire. They will appear as
approximately 1/2 inch (12 mm) bands across the tread
as the tire approaches its wear limit (see illustration).
The tire should be replaced if any tread depth indicator
can be seen or any part of the tread depth is 1/16 inch
(1.6 mm) or less.

WARNING

visible on any tire (see illustration). A tire
in this conditions may suddenly fail at
any time and cause loss of control of the
vehicle.
