INFORMATION

Summer tires are high-speed performance tires best suited to highway driving under
dry conditions. Since summer tires do not have the same traction performance as
snow tires, summer tires are inadequate for driving on snow-covered or icy roads. For driving on snow-covered roads or icy roads, the use of snow tires is recommended.
When installing snow tires, be sure to replace all four tires.

Run-flattirefeatures*
When run-flat tires are installed, the vehicle can be driven for a maximum of 50 miles (80 km) at a speed below 50 mph (80 km/h) after any tire goesflat. (However, the vehicle speed may not increase to near 50 mph [80 km/h@
depending on weather or driving conditions.)
Make sure to replace the flat tire before the vehicle has been driven for near 50
miles (80 km). Also, do not use a repaired tire.
A run-flat tire has a
mark on the side wall.

Operationofthetirepressurewarningsystem
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure warning system that uses tire pressure
warning valves and transmitters to detect low tire inflation pressure before serious
problems arise.
The tire pressure warning system of this vehicle adopts a 2-type warning system.

When the tire inflation pressure is to be other than specified, such as when tires
other than the specified size are used, etc., set the tire inflation pressure using
the current pressure. Make sure to adjust the tire inflation pressure of each tire
to the appropriate level before performing tire pressure setting. The tire pressure warning system operates based on this tire inflation pressure.
