CONSUMER’S OBLIGATION
The consumer is responsible for proper tire care and
maintenance:(1) It is recommended tires be rotated every 3,500 miles or less for high performance (low
profile) tires or every 7,500 miles or less for
standard passenger and light truck tires. More
frequent rotation may be necessary if, upon
inspection, irregular or erratic tread wear is
beginning to appear. As a general rule, front
and rear tire tread depth differential should be
kept to 2/32nds of an inch or less. Keep a
record of the rotation.
(2) The consumer must maintain the recom- mended air pressure in the tires according to
vehicle manufacturer’s recommendation.
Check inflation pressures on all your tires, in-
cluding the spare tire, when tires are cold, at
least once a month before driving. Maintaining
proper inflation pressure is the single most
important thing you can do to ensure optimum
tread life and tire durability. To avoid injury,
NEVER reinflate a tire that has been run se-
verely underinflated.
(3) The consumer must maintain the vehicle’s alignment in accordance with vehicle manu-
facturer’s specifications.
(4) The load capacity of the tires must not be exceeded. (5) The tire’s maximum speed capability must not
be exceeded.
(6) Follow the maintenance recommendations and safety warnings contained in the Owner’s
Manual and in the Important Tire Safety Infor-
mation section of this booklet.
TO MAKE A CLAIM UNDER THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY
In the event that you make a claim under the terms of the
warranty, we ask the consumer to:
(1) Present your tires and your vehicle to an au- thorized Toyo dealer. Call consumer relations
at (800) 442- 8696 (Pacific Time) or (888)
444-8696 (Eastern Time) for assistance locat-
ing the nearest Toyo tire dealer or visit our
web site at www.toyo.com for our dealer
locator.
(2) Complete and sign the Toyo Limited Warranty Claim form provided by the dealer and leave
the tire with the dealer for warranty
processing.
NOTE: Check with your vehicle dealership. They may
also assist you with your tire service requirements or in
obtaining tire warranty service from the tire manufac-
turer.
The consumer is entitled to an adjustment in accor-
dance with the warranty that was in effect when the tire
was installed on the vehicle as original equipment. The
adjustment policy provides for replacement with a com-
parable new Toyo tire if a Toyo tire becomes unservice- able due to an adjustable condition verified by Toyo’s
inspection of the tire. Free replacement or a pro rata
charge depends on the remaining usable tread when
tire is presented for adjustment.
LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY APPLIES ONLY TO
THE 50 UNITED STATES, AND THE DISTRICT OF
COLUMBIA. THIS WARRANTY IS THE ONLY
WRITTEN WARRANTY PROVIDED BY TOYO.
No
Toyo employee, representative or dealer has the author-
ity to make or imply any representation, promise or
agreement, which in any way varies the terms of this
limited warranty.
LIMITATION AND EXCLUSION ON DAMAGES:
TOYO SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR ANY IMPLIED WAR-
RANTY, (including, for example loss of time, loss of use
of vehicle, towing charges, road service or inconve-
niences) . Some states do not allow the exclusion or
limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so
the above exclusions may not apply to you.
YOUR RIGHTS UNDER STATE LAW
This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights; and
you may also have other rights, which vary from state to
state.

The warrantor of Toyo Tires is Toyo Tire (U.S.A.)
Corporation, 6261 Katella Ave., Suite 2B, Cypress,
California 90630.

arrows on the sidewall showing the direction in which
the tire should turn. When rotating this type of tire, care
must be taken to maintain the proper turning direction
as indicated by the arrows. Some vehicles have differ-
ent tire sizes specified for front and rear axles. Tires on
these vehicles should not be rotated side to side (unless
they are non-directional). Where a temporary type spare
tire is available, it should not be included in the tire
rotation schedule. Such tires are intended for temporary
use only.
REPLACING TWO TIRES
If your vehicle was originally equipped with four tires that
were the same size and you are only replacing two of the
four tires, install the new tires on the rear axle. Placing
new tires on the front axle may cause loss of vehicle
control in some driving conditions and cause an acci-
dent and personal injury.
TRAILER TOWING
If you anticipate towing a trailer, you should see a tire
dealer for advice concerning the correct size of tire and
pressure. Tire size and pressure will depend on the type
and size of the trailer and hitch utilized, but in no case
must the maximum cold inflation pressure or the tire load
rating be exceeded. Check the tire decal and your
Owner’s Manual for further recommendations on trailer
towing.
TIRE ALTERATIONS
Do not perform any alterations on your tires. Alterations
may prevent proper performance, leading to tire dam-
age, which can result in an accident. Tires which be-
come unserviceable due to alterations such as truing,whitewall inlays, addition of balancing or sealant liquids,
may be excluded from warranty coverage. Consult your
tire warranty.
HIGH PRESSURE TEMPORARY SPARE
TIRES
1) The high-pressure spare tire in your Nissan
vehicle is designed for temporary use only and
must not be used continually as a regular tire.
The standard tire should be repaired and/or
replaced as soon as possible.
2) Avoid driving over obstacles that may damage the tire through impact or cutting, such as
potholes, glass, metal, etc.
3) Speed must not exceed 50MPH (80km/h) for non-speed-rated temporary spare tires.
4) Temporary spare tires have a limited treadlife which can vary depending on road conditions
and your driving habits. The spare tire should
be returned to the trunk as soon as the stan-
dard tire can be repaired or replaced.
5) Because the high-pressure spare tire was spe- cifically designed for your car, it should not be
used on any other vehicle.
6) Do not use snow chains on your high-pressure spare. This could cause damage to your
vehicle.
7) Check the tire’s cold inflation pressure monthly and maintain at 60psi (4.2kg/cm2) even when
not in use. 8) The high-pressure spare tire should not be
used with any other rim nor should standard
tires, wheel covers, or trim rings be used on
the high-pressure spare tire rim which was
originally installed.
9) When the tread wear indicator appears on the tire, replace it only with the same type spare
tire.
10) Do not enter an automatic carwash with a tem- porary spare tire fitted.
11) Do not make a sharp turn or apply the brakes suddenly when driving on a high-pressure tem-
porary spare.
Note: When using any temporary type spare
tire, be sure to follow the vehicle Own-
er’s Manual instructions.
