CAUTION
–
• Make certain that there is no difference in the air pressure be-
tween the inner and outer rear tires.
• Make certain you use valve caps on the air valves.
• It is not necessary to increase the air pressure for high-speed
driving.
Checking tread depth
• Check all around the tire treads to make sure that the depth of the
tread grooves is above the wear limit.
• If the tread grooves are not deep enough, slip sign A appears at the
position of the mark, where the tread groove has worn away.
WARNING
–
If the depth of the tread grooves is not adequate, the tires will slip
on wet roads and present a hazard. Such tires are also extremely
dangerous because they are more susceptible to hydroplaning
when the vehicle is running at high speeds in the rain. Such tires
must be replaced with new ones as soon as possible.

Checking for cracks, damage, and objects embedded in the treads
• Check the tire treads and walls for cracks and damage.
• Check tire treads for uneven wear or other abnormal wear.
• Check if metal objects or nails have penetrated the tires.
• Check for stones embedded between double tires.
WARNING
–
Badly damaged or worn tires are extremely dangerous, because
they can be punctured more easily when the vehicle is running,
they must be replaced with new ones as soon as possible.
