When rotating tyres, check for uneven wear and

damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused by incor-

rect tyre pressure, improper wheel alignment, out

of balance wheel, or severe braking. We recom-

mend you to have it checked to determine the

cause of irregular tread wear.

Spare tyre used*

Spare tyre not used

Front

Tyres that have arrows showing rotation direction

*- If the spare tyre wheel differs from the stand-

ard tyre wheel, do not

perform tyre rotation us-

ing a spare wheel.

CAUTION

If the tyres have arrows (A) indicating

the correct direction of rotation, swap the

front and rear wheels on the left hand

side of the vehicle and the front and rear

wheels on the right hand side of the vehi-

cle separately. Keep each tyre on its origi-

nal side of the vehicle. When fitting the

tyres, make sure the arrows point in the

direction in which the wheels will turn

when the vehicle moves forward. Any

tyre whose arrow points in the wrong di-

rection will not perform to its full poten-

tial.

CAUTION

Avoid the combined use of

different types

of tyres.

Using different types of tyres can affect ve-

hicle performance and safety.

Snow tyres

E01002000725

The

use of snow tyres

is recommended for driving

on snow and ice. To preserve driving stability,

mount snow tyres of the same size and tread pat-

tern on all 4 wheels.

Snow tyres worn more than 50% are no longer suit-

able for use as snow tyres.

Snow tyres which do not meet specifications must

not be used.

CAUTION

Observe permissable maximum speed for

your snow tyres and the legal speed limit.

NOTE

The

laws

and regulations concerning

snow

tyres (driving speed, required use, type, etc.)

vary. Find out and follow the laws and regu-

lations in the area you intend to drive.

If flange nuts are used on your vehicle,

change to tapered nuts when steel wheels are

used.

Tyre chains

E01002101534

It is recommended that snow chains are carried in

snow regions and fitted when

required to the rear

wheels.

On 4WD vehicles in which the driving power is dis-

tributed preferentially to the rear wheels, ensure

that the tyre chains are fitted on the rear.

Use only tyre chains which are designed for use

with the tyres mounted on the vehicle: use of the in-

correct size or type of chain could result in damage

to the vehicle body.
