Danger!
Risk of accident due to hidden tire damage.
Tires may burst, especially at high speeds
causing loss of control of the vehicle, which
may result in severe personal injury or death.
f Check tires – including sidewalls – regularly for
foreign bodies, nicks, cuts, cracks and bulges.
f After driving off road, examine tires for signs
of damage such as cuts, tears, bulges or for-
eign objects stuck in the tread. Replace a dam-
aged tire if necessary.
f Cross curb edges slowly and at right angles if
possible.
Avoid driving over steep or sharp curbs.
f
In cases of doubt, have the wheel (particularly
the inner side) checked by an authorized Por-
sche dealer.
In case of tire damage, where it is uncertain whe-
ther there is a break in the ply with all its conse-
quences or tire damage caused by thermal or me-
chanical overloading due to loss of pressure or
any other prior damage, we recommend that the
tire be replaced for safety reasons.
If one faulty tire is replaced it should be noted that
the difference in tread depth on one axle must not
exceed 30%. Handling inconsistencies may result.
f Perform a visual inspection if necessary.
