Replacing tires
Always replace tires with type and size
listed in this manual.
Always use the correct tools when
replacing tires. The bead and sometimes
the rim can be damaged by using the
wrong type of tools. It is usually best
to have tires replaced by an authorized
service center. Service centers have the
correct equipment and expertise to change
tires without causing damage.
Punctures to tires can usually be repaired
by using plug type patches. Plug type
patches cannot repair tires that have been
cut. If the tire has been cut or has a
puncture in a location or size that cannot
be repaired, replace the tire.
Be prepared for flat tires, always carry a
plug type patch kit and air pump with you.
