The tyre has a puncture, cut,
or other damage that cannot
be repaired well because of the
size or location of the damage.
Tyre Rotation
Tyres should be rotated at the
intervals specified in the
Maintenance Schedule. See
.
Tyres are rotated to achieve a
uniform wear for all tyres. The
first rotation is the most
important.
Anytime unusual wear is noticed,
rotate the tyres as soon as
possible, check for proper tyre
inflation pressure, and check for
damaged tyres or wheels. If the
unusual wear continues after the
rotation, check the wheel
alignment.

Use this rotation pattern when
rotating the tyres.
Do not include the spare tyre in
the tyre rotation.
Adjust the front and rear tyres to
the recommended inflation
pressure on the Tyre and Loading
Information label after the tyres
have been rotated.

Warning
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the
parts to which it is fastened, can
make wheel nuts become loose
after time. The wheel could come
off and cause an accident. When
changing a wheel, remove any rust
or dirt from places where the wheel
attaches to the vehicle. In an
emergency, a cloth or a paper towel
can be used; however, use a scraper
or wire brush later to remove all
rust or dirt.
Lightly coat the centre of the
wheel hub with wheel bearing
grease after a wheel change or tyre
rotation to prevent corrosion or
rust build-up. Do not get grease
on the flat wheel mounting
surface or on the wheel nuts or
bolts.
