TIRE SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
• Seek roadside assistance or change the damaged tire with
your spare tire.
• Have all of your tires and the vehicle thoroughly inspected
by a tire professional.
TIRE ROTATION
The purpose for rotating tires is to achieve more uniform wear for
all tires on a vehicle. Your tires should be thoroughly examined
on a lift by a tire dealer for any abnormalities. If tires show uneven
treadwear, ask the service person to check and/or correct any
vehicle wheel alignment or other mechanical problem before
rotation.
The following rotation patterns are acceptable. Please refer to your
vehicle Owner’s Manual for rotation advice.
Full-size spare tires (not temporary spares) of the same size,
construction, and speed rating may be used in a fi ve-tire rotation
pattern.
After rotation, check the infl ation pressure of all the tires. The
front and rear tire pressures may vary according to the vehicle
manufacturer’s specifi cations.
