is important for proper tire load distribution and function. The maximum
load capacity stamped on the sidewalls of P-Metric & European Metric
tires is reduced by 10% when used on a light truck, utility vehicle or
trailer. Never fit P-Metric or European Metric tires to light trucks that
specify LT-type replacement tires.
DON’T SPIN YOUR TIRES EXCESSIVELY
Avoid excessive tire spinning when your vehicle is stuck in snow, ice,
mud or sand. The centrifugal forces generated by a free-spinning
tire/wheel assembly may cause sudden tire explosion, resulting in
vehicle damage and/or serious personal injury to you or a bystander.
Never exceed 35 mph / 55 kph, as indicated on your speedometer. Use a
gentle backward and forward rocking motion to free your vehicle for
continued driving. Never stand near or behind a tire spinning at high
speeds, for example, while attempting to push a vehicle that is stuck or
when an on-the-car spin balance machine is in use.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR WEAR
Always remove tires from service when they reach two thirty-seconds of
an inch (2/32) remaining tread depth. All new tires have tread wear
indicators which appear as smooth banks in the tread grooves when they
wear to the two thirty seconds of an inch (2/32) level. Many wet weather
accidents result from skidding on bald or nearly bald tires. Excessively
worn tires are also more susceptible to penetrations.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR DAMAGE
Frequent (at least monthly) inspection of your tires for signs of damage
and their general condition is important for safety. If you have any
questions, have your tire Dealer inspect them. Impacts, penetrations,
cracks, knots, bulges or air loss always require tire removal and expert
inspection. Never perform a temporary repair or use an inner tube as a
substitute for a proper repair. Only qualified persons should repair tires.
PROPER TIRE REPAIR
NOTE:Goodyear does not warrant any inspection or repair process.
The repair is entirely the responsibility of the repairer and should be
made in accordance with established Rubber Manufacturers Association
(RMA) procedures.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System Alert
Refer to your vehicle Owner ’s Manual for more information on what to
do if the tire pressure warning system activates.
THE CONVENIENCE (TEMPORARY) SPARE
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare is designed, built and tested to the
high engineering standards set by North America’s leading car manufac-
turers and to Goodyear ’s own high standards of quality control. It is
designed to take up a minimum of storage space and, at the same time,
fulfill the function of a spare tire when needed. The spare is kept in its
storage space, fully inflated at 60 psi. To be sure it is always ready for use,
the air pressure should be checked on a regular basis.
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare can be used in combination with the
original tires on your vehicle. You can expect a tire tread life of up to 3,000
miles (4,800 kilometers), depending on road conditions and your driving
habits. To conserve tire tread life, return the spare to the storage area as
soon as it is convenient to have the standard tire repaired or replaced.
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare weighs less than a standard tire so
it’s easier to handle. It also helps reduce the total car weight, which
contributes to fuel economy. The wheels used with the Convenience
(Temporary) Spare are specifically designed for use with high pressure
spares and should never be used with any other type tire.
DON’T ATTEMPT TO MOUNT YOUR OWN TIRES
Serious injury or death may result from explosion of tire/rim assembly
due to improper mounting procedures. Follow tire manufacturer ’s
instructions and match tire diameter to rim diameter. Mount light truck
radials on rims approved for radial service. Do not apply bead sealer.
This can inhibit bead seating. Lubricate beads and tire rim (including
tube or flap) contact surfaces. Lock assembly on mounting machine or
place in safety cage. STAND BACK and never exceed 40 psi to seat beads.
Never use a volatile substance or a rubber “donut” (also known as a bead
expander or “O-Ring”) to aid bead seating. Only specially trained
persons should mount tires.

DON’T MIX TIRES OF DIFFERENT SIZES AND TYPES ON THE
SAME AXLE
For optimum handling and control, Goodyear recommends fitment of
four (4) tires of the same type and size unless otherwise specified by the
vehicle manufacturer.
WARNING!
Before you replace your tires, always consult the vehicle owner ’s
manual and follow the vehicle manufacturer ’s replacement tire
recommendations. Vehicle handling may be significantly affected
by a change in tire size or type. When selecting tires that are
different from the Original Equipment size, see a professional
installer in order to make certain that proper clearance, load-
carrying capacity and inflation pressure are selected. Never exceed
the maximum load capacity and inflation pressure listed on the
sidewall of the tire. Always drive safely and obey all traffic laws.
Avoid sudden, sharp turns or aggressive lane changes. Failure to
follow this warning may result in loss of control of the vehicle,
leading to an accident and serious injury or death.
When replacing tires, you must maintain the outside diameter and
load-carrying capacity of the Original Equipment tire. Inflation pressure
may need to be adjusted to avoid overloading the tire. Consult the Tire &
Rim Association Load and Inflation Tables, ETRTO or JATMA standards
for correct load and inflation information.
NEVER FIT TIRES TO A VEHICLE THAT HAVE LESS LOAD-
CARRYING CAPACITY THAN REQUIRED BY THE ORIGINAL
EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER
Examples: Many vehicles, such as large passenger vans, require Load
Range E tires as designated by the vehicle manufacturer. Fitment of a tire,
such as a Load Range D, with less carrying capacity is not allowed. In
other cases, tires of the same size may carry different load indexes in the
service description. You must make certain the replacement tires fitted to
the vehicle have a load-carrying capacity equal to or greater than what
the Original Equipment manufacturer specifies.
GOODYEAR DUNLOP TIRES

NOTE:Goodyear manufactured and/or marketed European- Metric
passenger tires and P-Metric passenger tires are interchangeable as long
as they have the same section width, same aspect ratio, same rim
diameter.
CAUTION!
Never substitute a “Standard Load” (SL) tire for an Extra Load (XL)
or Reinforced tire. If the vehicle was originally equipped with
“Extra Load” (XL) or Reinforced tires, replace those tires with
similar-sized Extra Load (XL) or Reinforced tires.
FOLLOW THESE ADDITIONAL GUIDELINES
When installing only two tires, fit the tires with the deepest tread depth
on the rear axle. If radials and non-radials must be fitted to the same
vehicle, fit radials on rear axle. Never mix radials and non-radials on the
same axle. When fitting winter tires or all-season tires to performance
vehicles, always fit in sets of four. It is not recommended to fit tires with
different speed ratings. If tires with different speed ratings are installed
on a vehicle, they should be installed with like pairs on the same axle.
The speed capability of the vehicle will become limited to that of the
lowest speed rated tires.
Use of lift kits with some vehicle/tire combinations can cause instability.
When changing tire sizes, always consult Dealer for optimum rim width
and carefully check vehicle/tire clearances.
RETREADED TIRES
Retreaded passenger and light truck tires are not warranted by Goodyear
for any reason. Speed ratings and U.S. Department of Transportation test
compliance certifications are voided for retreaded tires.
DO MAINTAIN VEHICLE SUSPENSION, WHEEL ALIGNMENT
AND BALANCE AND ROTATE YOUR TIRES
Lack of rotation, worn suspension parts, underinflation/ overinflation,
wheel imbalance and misalignment can cause vibration or irregular tire
wear. Rotate your tires according to your vehicle manufacturer ’s recom-
mendations or at maximum intervals of 6,000 miles / 10,000 km.

HOW TO READ A TIRE D.O.T. SERIAL NUMBER
D.O.T. stands for Department of Transportation and the number is on the
lower sidewall of each tire to show that the tire meets or exceeds the
Department of Transportation safety standards.
TIRE SERVICE LIFE
Tires are designed and built to provide many thousands of miles of
excellent service. For maximum benefit, tires must be maintained prop-
erly to avoid tire damage that may result in removal from service before
the tread is worn down to minimum depth.
It is not practical to accurately predict the service life of any specific tire
in chronological time since service conditions vary widely. The service-
ability of a tire over time is a function of the storage and service
conditions (inflation pressure, load, speed, road hazard injury, etc.) to
which a tire is subjected. Consumers should not rely solely on the
appearance of the tire, but should be aware of any change in dynamic
performance such as increased air loss, noise or vibration, which could be
a sign to remove the tire. Therefore, it is essential to have tires, including
spares, inspected regularly (at least monthly) for proper inflation pres-
sure, damage and treadwear.
Check your vehicle’s owner ’s manual (or your vehicle) to determine if
it is equipped with run-flat (extended mobility) tires. If your vehicle is
equipped with run-flat tires, the following applies:

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
OPERATIONAL MONITORING
The information contained in this Limited Warranty Brochure applies
only to the Original Equipment tires supplied with your vehicle. In order
for Goodyear Run-Flat (Extended Mobility Technology [EMT], RunOn-
Flat [ROF]) or Dunlop Run-Flat (Dunlop Self- Supporting Technology
[DSST]) tires to obtain the performance criteria stated within this Limited
Warranty, Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tires must use specific parts,
such as a low tire pressure monitoring system authorized by the Original
Equipment vehicle manufacturer.
RUN-FLAT TIRE FEATURE:
The Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tire is a high-performance tire with a
remarkable feature: It can operate for limited distances with very low or
even no inflation pressure (refer to your Vehicle Owner ’s Manual for
these limitations). This is an important benefit, especially if inflation loss
occurs at a location where immediately stopping your vehicle could be
hazardous. TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM ALERT Refer to
your vehicle Owner ’s Manual for more information on what to do if the
tire pressure warning system activates.
WARNING!
If the tire pressure-monitoring system signals an alert, follow these
safety precautions to prevent a loss of vehicle control that could
result in serious personal injury or death:
•Slow your speed. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 kph).
•Avoid hard cornering, hard braking and severe handling maneu-
vers.
•Avoid potholes and other road hazards.
Remember that when your tires have lost air pressure, your vehicle’s
handling capability is reduced, particularly during severe maneuvers.

TO PROLONG TIRE LIFE DURING A SYSTEM ALERT
The Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tire can be driven at low or zero air
pressure (refer to your vehicle Owner ’s Manual for these limitations). To
help prolong the life of a tire operating under low-inflation conditions,
drive at a speed as far below 50 mph (80 kph) as possible. Also, drive the
shortest distance possible before obtaining tire service. Taking these
precautions will increase the chance that your tire will be repairable.
SERVICE AFTER A SYSTEM ALERT
To obtain service after operating under low-inflation conditions, contact
your Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility. Trained service
personnel will inspect your tires to determine if they are in need of repair
or replacement. To locate the nearest authorized Goodyear or Dunlop
Run-Flat service facility, call 1-800- GOODYEAR 1-800-466-3932 .
WARNING!
Because of the unique characteristics of Run-Flat tires, the wheels
on which they are mounted and your vehicle’s tire pressure
monitoring system, all tire service work other than routine inflation
maintenance and external inspections must be performed by service
personnel at a Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility.
Do not attempt to mount or demount Run-Flat tires yourself; serious
injury or death could result. Only specially trained persons should
mount, demount and repair Run-Flat tires, and more than 40 psi
(270 kPa) may be required to seat beads. A safety cage and clip-on
extension air hose must be used if more than 40 psi (270 kPa) is need
to seat beads.
TIRE REPAIR
Like any other Goodyear or Dunlop speed-rated, high-performance tire,
the Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tire may be repaired to correct a
puncture in the tread, but PROPER MATERIALS AND PROCEDURES
MUST BE USED. Contact a Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility
for information on proper repairs. For the location of the nearest facility,
call 1-800-GOODYEAR 1-800-466-3932 .

WARNING!
Goodyear and Dunlop Run-Flat tires are designed for use only on
certain original equipment wheels supplied with a properly
operating low tire pressure-monitoring system. If applied to a
vehicle without a properly operating low tire pressure monitoring
system, the tires may fail when operated in an underinflated
condition, resulting in loss of vehicle control and possible serious
injury or death. Application of these tires to a vehicle not equipped
with specified operational low tire pressure-monitoring system
constitutes improper and unsafe use of this product.

HANKOOK TIRES
LIMITED WARRANTY FOR ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT PASSENGER
CAR & LIGHT TRUCK TIRES INCLUDING TEMPORARY TIRES
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG
Hankook warrants that a tire manufactured by Hankook and equipped
originally on the vehicle is free from defects in materials or workmanship
in normal use for the life of the original usable tread. The life of the
original usable tread ends when the tire tread has been worn down with
only 1.6 mm (2/32 nds inch) remaining, at which point the tire is
considered to be fully worn out.
PASSENGER CAR AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
1. Free replacement
If Hankook Radial Passenger & Light Truck Tires fail as a result of
defect in material and/or workmanship within the first 25% of
treadwear, the tire will be replaced with a new, comparable Hankook
Tire at no charge including mounting and balancing charges.
2. Pro rated replacement
Tires not qualifying for free replacement will be allowed a credit
toward purchase of a new, comparable Hankook Tire based upon the
amount of tread actually worn. The cost of mounting, balancing and
any other service charges or applicable taxes shall be paid by the user.
Otherwise adjustment for compensation will be made on a prorata
basis calculated by multiplying the actual current dealer selling price
by the percentage of remaining usable tread depth.
HANKOOK TEMPORARY TIRE
1. A Temporary tire weighs less and provides more trunk storage space
than a conventional tire. To conserve tire tread life, temporary tire
should be returned to the trunk as soon as it is convenient to have your
standard tire repaired or replaced.
