Driving style
•
tyre pressure
•
Distance driven
tyres and the spare tyre should be replaced after six years,
regardless of the remaining tread. Failure to follow this warning
can result in sudden and unexpected tyre failure, leading to an
accident and/or personal injury.
Keep dismounted tyres in a cool, dry place with as little
exposure to light as possible. Protect tyres from contact with
oil, grease and fuels.
Do not use a tyre, wheel size or speed rating other than that
specified for your vehicle on the tyre placard. Combinations of
unapproved

characteristics, resulting in
changes to steering, handling and braking of your vehicle. This
can cause unpredictable handling, stress to steering and
suspension components. You could lose control of the vehicle
or the tyre can unexpectedly fail, resulting in an accident and/
or personal injury.
Replacing original tyres with tyres of a different size may result
in false speedometer and odometer readings.
