TIRE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING
WARNING!
It is not often that a properly maintained tire will “blow out” while
you are driving. More commonly, if inflation pressure is lost, it will
be gradual. If you do experience a blowout or sudden tire failure,
the following information should be helpful:
•When the failure occurs, you may hear a loud noise, feel a
vibration, and/or the vehicle may pull toward the side of the failed
tire.
• DO NOT abruptly brake or turn.
• Slowly remove your foot from the accelerator, hold the steering
wheel firmly, and steer to maintain your lane position.
• Once the vehicle has slowed, apply the brakes gently.
• Gradually pull over to the shoulder and come to a stop, as far off
the road as possible.
TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE
Tires need proper inflation pressure to operate effectively and perform as
intended. Tires carry the vehicle, passenger, and cargo loads and transmit
the braking, acceleration, and turning forces. The vehicle manufacturer
recommends the inflation pressures for the tires mounted on your
vehicle.
WARNING!
Driving on tires with improper inflation pressure is dangerous.
•Underinflation
causes
excessive
tire
heat
build-up
and
internal

structural
damage.
• 0WFSJOGMBUJPO
makes
it

STORING YOUR TIRES
When storing your tires for any extended period of time, be sure to
thoroughly clean your tires with a tire brush, soap, and water to remove
any dirt, salt, and brake dust from the tires. If you are storing your tires
still mounted on the wheels, use a wheel brush and approved wheel
cleaner to clean your wheels. Then dry the wheels and tires with a towel
and allow them to fully dry. DO NOT apply any tire dressings while
storing your tires. Tire compounds are made to resist weather cracking
and ozone damage. Place each clean and dry tire in an airtight plastic bag
and seal the bag with tape to help reduce oil evaporation. Store your tires
out of direct sunlight and somewhere that is well shielded from the
elements, like a climate-controlled room or dry basement. Storing the
tires in a garage or shed usually exposes the tires to a wide range of
temperatures as well as precipitation and humidity. Keep the tires away
from sources that emit ozone like electric motors that use contact brushes,
furnaces, sump pumps, etc. Although tires will still age regardless of how
they are stored, these precautions will help slow the aging process and
reduce the damage to your tires.
SPEED LIMITS
WARNING!
Operating your vehicle in excess of the posted speed limit or the
maximum speed allotted by driving conditions has the potential to
be dangerous. Higher driving speeds create excessive heat buildup
in a tire, leading to a possible tire failure.
TIRE SPINNING
WARNING!
Spinning a tire to get a stuck vehicle out of mud, ice, snow, sand, or
wet grass can be potentially dangerous. A spinning tire at a
speedometer reading above 55 km/h (35 mph) can be capable of
disintegrating a tire with explosive force. In some circumstances, a
tire may be spinning at twice the speed displayed on the
speedometer. This can cause serious injury or death to you, a
passenger, or bystander. Never spin a tire above 55 km/h (35 mph).

Temporary Spares
MICHELIN® temporary spare tires are covered by this warranty for 6
years from the date of purchase or until the first 2/32 nds of an inch (1.6
mm) of the original tread is worn off. Date of purchase is documented by
new vehicle registration or tire sales invoice. If no proof of purchase is
available, coverage will be based on date of manufacture. At that time, all
warranties, express or implied, expire.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED
Tires which become unserviceable due to:
•Road hazard injury (e.g., a cut, snag, bruise, impact damage or
puncture);
• Incorrect mounting of the tire, tire/wheel imbalance or improper
repair;
• Misapplication, improper maintenance, racing, underinflation, overin-
flation or other abuse;
• Uneven or rapid wear which is caused by mechanical irregularity in
the vehicle such as wheel misalignment, (a measured tread difference
of 2/32 nds of an inch (1.6 mm) or more across the tread on the same
tire);
• Accident, fire, chemical corrosion, tire alteration, or vandalism;
• Use in commercial applications for tread wear; by this warranty for 6
years;
• Flat spotting caused by improper storage or brake lock;
• The addition of liquid, solid or gaseous materials other than air,
nitrogen or carbon dioxide (for example, waterbase sealers or balanc-
ing substances);
• Cosmetic ozone or weather cracking;
• Use of MICHELIN Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (AP) tires without a
properly operating low air pressure warning system.

CONTROLLABILITY
Controlling a vehicle when a tire failure occurs
If a tire failure occurs, you may hear a loud noise, feel a vibration, and/or
the vehicle may pull toward the side of the failed tire. If possible, step on
the accelerator momentarily to maintain forward momentum and ensure
vehicle control. It is most important that you DO NOT BRAKE OR
ABRUPTLY TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. Slowly remove your foot
from the accelerator and hold the steering wheel firmly while steering to
remain in your lane. Once the vehicle has slowed and is fully under
control, apply the brakes gently; safely pull over to the shoulder and
come to a stop. Inspect the tires. If one or more looks flat or low, shows
detachment or other damage, remove tire assembly and replace it with a
properly inflated spare. Bumps or bulges may indicate detachment
within the tire body and require inspection by a qualified tire technician.
DRIVING ON ANY TIRE THAT DOES NOT HAVE THE CORRECT
INFLATION PRESSURE IS DANGEROUS
Any underinflated tire builds up excessive heat that may result in sudden
tire destruction. If tires are supplied as original equipment, refer to the
tire decal on the vehicle (check vehicle and/or vehicle owner ’s manual
for decal location) for the recommended operating pressures. For replace-
ment tires, the correct inflation pressure will be provided by your tire
retailer; if not, refer to the vehicle decal.
These inflation pressures must be maintained as a minimum. However,
do not exceed the maximum pressure rating indicated on the tire
sidewall.
SELF-SUPPORTING TIRES. ZERO PRESSURE (ZP) TIRES, AND PAX
SYSTEM TIRES, AT LOW OR ZERO AIR PRESSURE
The handling characteristics of a vehicle with a deflated PAX System tire
or Self- Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tire (whether front or rear) are not
the same as those of a vehicle with normally inflated tires. Avoid high
speeds and hard cornering whenever a low pressure warning is acti-
vated.
