Warranty

Tires are designed and built with great care to provide thousands of miles of excellent service.
But, for maximum benefit they must be maintained properly.
The most important factors in tire care are:
• Proper Inflation Pressure
• Proper Vehicle Loading
• Regular Inspection
• Good Driving Habits
TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE
With the right amount of inflation pressure, your tires wear longer, save fuel and help prevent
accidents. The “right amount” of inflation is the pressure specified by the vehicle manufacturer
for the front and rear tires on your particular model car or light truck. The correct inflation
pressure is shown on the tire placard (or sticker) attached to the vehicle–door edge, door post
or glove box door. If your vehicle doesn’t have a placard, check the owner’s manual or consult
with the vehicle manufacturer for the proper inflation.
The tire placard tells you the maximum vehicle load, the cold tire pressures and the tire size
recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. (Typical placards are shown to the right. Your
placard may be different.)
If you don’t take proper care of your tires, the results can be serious. There is a safety warning
molded on the sidewall of your tire. It is shown to the right. There are additional safety
warnings in this booklet and on www.us.coopertire.com website.
As you can see, it points out that serious injury may result from tire failure due to underinflation
or overloading. Motorists are strongly advised to follow the vehicle owner’s manual or the tire
placard in the vehicle for proper inflation and loading.
Only specially trained persons should demount or mount tires. An explosion of a tire and wheel
assembly can result from improper or careless mounting procedures and cause serious injury
or death.
