APPLICATIONS, THE TIRES MAY BECOME UNSERVICEABLE AT
LOW OR ZERO PRESSURE, CAUSING SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY OR DEATH.
SPECIAL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR MICHELIN® TRX™
TI
RES
The MICHELIN® TRX™ tire is a tubeless tire that must only be
mo
unted on special wheels (TR or JM type) with millimetric seat
diameter. If TRX tires are mounted on standard wheels, they will not
retain air due to an air escape feature designed into the bead area of
these tires.
Do not try to override this feature by mounting TRX tires with
tu
bes. The MICHELIN® TRX™ tire must be used on all wheel
positions.
TEMPORARY TYPE SPARE TIRES
When using any temporary type spare tire, be sure to follow the
ve
hicle manufacturer’s instructions.
READING THE DOT
DOT XXXX XXXX XXX (prior to August 2000)
DOT XXXX XXXX XXX (1990-1999)
DOT XXXX XXXX XXXX (after July 2000)
THE DOT
The “DOT” symbol certifies tire manufacturer’s compliance with US
De
partment of Transportation tire safety standards. Next to the
symbol is the tire identification or “serial number”. The first two
characters identify the plant where the tire was manufactured. The
next two characters reflect the tire size. The following one to four
digits may be used at the tire manufacturer’s option as a descriptive
code. The last three characters are numbers identifying the week and
year of manufacture. (Example: “O25” means second week of the year
of decade, eg.: 1995, 1985, etc.) For the 1990-1999 decade MICHELIN®
brand tires are marked with a triangle pointing to the last three
numeric characters. Tires produced after July 2000 have an additional
digit to identify a given decade. For example, 2800 means the tire was
pr
oduced during the 28th week of 2000; 0201 during the 2nd week of
2001. If the last digits of your DOT number contains three numeric
characters and is not marked with a triangle, consult a qualified tire
technician to determine the year of manufacture.

SERVICE LIFE FOR PASSENGER CAR AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
INCLUDING SPARE TIRES
The following recommendation applies to passenger car and light
tr
uck tires. Tires are composed of various types of material and rubber
compounds, having performance properties essential to the proper
functioning of the tire itself. These component properties evolve over
time. For each tire, this evolution depends upon many factors such as
weather, storage conditions, and conditions of use (load, speed,
inflation pressure, maintenance etc.) to which the tire is subjected
throughout its life. This service-related evolution varies widely so that
accurately predicting the serviceable life of any specific tire in advance
is not possible.
That is why, in addition to regular inspections and inflation pressure
m a
intenance by consumers, it is recommended to have passenger car
and light truck tires, including spare tires, inspected regularly by a
qualified tire specialist, such as a tire dealer, who will assess the tire’s
suitability for continued service. Tires which have been in use for five
years or more should continue to be inspected by a specialist at least
annually. Consumers are strongly encouraged to be aware not only of
their tires’ visual condition and inflation pressure but also of any
change in dynamic performance such as increased air loss, noise or
vibration, which could be an indication that the tires need to be
removed from service to prevent tire failure. It is impossible to predict
when tires should be replaced based on their calendar age alone.
However the older a tire the greater the chance that it will need to be
replaced due to the service-related evolution or other conditions
found upon inspection or detected during use.
While most tires will need replacement before they achieve 10 years,
i t
is recommended that any tires in service 10 years or more from the
date of manufacture, including spare tires, be replaced with new tires
as a simple precaution even if such tires appear serviceable and even
if they have not reached the legal wear limit. For tires that were on an
original equipment vehicle (i.e., acquired by the consumer on a new
vehicle), follow the vehicle manufacturer’s tire replacement
recommendations, when specified (but not to exceed 10 years).
The date when a tire was manufactured is located on the sidewall of
ea
ch tire. Consumers should locate the Department of Transportation
(DOT) code on the tire which begins with DOT and ends with the
week and year of manufacture. For example, a DOT code ending with
“2204” indicates a tire made in the 22nd week (May) of 2004.

TOTAL COVERAGE WARRANTY™
(Effective February 1, 2016)
FOR STEEL BELTED RADIAL TIRES MANUFACTURED BY NEXEN
TI
RE
ABOUT NEXEN TOTAL COVERAGE WARRANTY
This limited warranty only applies to the original purchaser of new
re
placement tires sold by NEXEN TIRE USA (as below NEXEN TIRE),
and has been used on the same vehicle that it was originally installed
on.
This warranty applies to tires purchased after February 1st 2016. Tires
pu
rchased before February 1st 2016 are subject to the previous
published warranty.
The Nexen Total Coverage Warranty offers the consumer the
fo
llowing benefits:
Coverage for Defects in Workmanship and Materials
• Mileage Tread Wear Limited Warranty*
•
Road Hazard Replacement Program*
•
Roadside Assistance – Flat Tire Change or Tow Service
*
Most, but not all Nexen Tire patterns come with a Mileage Tread
We
ar Warranty and/or Road Hazard Replacement. Check each
pattern for coverage.
For purposes of this warranty, the term “usable tread life” will be
de
termined as having at least 2/32” (1.6 mm) of tread remaining
ev
enly across the tire. If less than 2/32” (1.6 mm) of tread remains at
an
y point on the face of the tire, the tire will be considered past its
usable tread life and subject to any and all conditions stated below.
WORKMANSHIP AND MATERIALS
All NEXEN tires are warranted against defects in workmanship and
ma
terial and will be replaced 100% free of charge for the initial
warranty period which is the first 2/32" (1.6 mm) of original usable
tr
ead life, or within 12 months from the period of purchase, whichever
co
mes first.
Page 185 of 262

NEXEN TIRE
184
After the 100% replacement term expires and the tire is still within
72 months from date of manufacture, the amount of credit will be
de
termined by the percentage of original tread depth remaining on
the tire. Under all circumstances, the cost of mounting, balancing and
any other service charges including applicable taxes are required to be
paid by the consumer.
MILEAGE TREAD WEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
Most patterns manufactured by NEXEN TIRE are assigned a mileage
wa
rranty that protects the consumer against premature tread wear.
If a tire reaches the end of its “usable tread life” before the stated
mileage warranty, the consumer will be issued a replacement Nexen
tire on a pro rata basis, which means the consumer will be
responsible for a percentage of the replacement cost. In order to
maintain tread wear warranty, all tires must be rotated at least every
5,000-6,000 miles (8,000-10,000 km). Under all circumstances, the cost
of
mounting, balancing and any other service charges including
applicable taxes are required to be paid by the consumer.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY
• Ride complaints after the first 2/32" of tread wear or replacement of
t
hree or more tires from the same vehicle will not be accepted.
• Road hazard damage such as cuts, snags, punctures or tire repair,
b
ruises, impact breaks, etc. Check Road Hazard Replacement
Program for patterns that are covered against this type of damage.
• Premature or irregular wear due to vehicle mechanical deficiencies
o
r failure to rotate the tires at recommended intervals.
• Tires on any vehicle registered and normally operated outside the
U
nited States.
• Damage from incorrect mounting or dismounting of the tire, incor -
r
ect application, water or other material trapped inside the tire
du
ring mounting or failure to balance the tires.
• Damage from over or under inflation, overloading, fire, theft, and
d
efective vehicle mechanical conditions.
• Racing, off road use and misapplications of tire to vehicle.
•
Ozone or weather cracking on tires after 48
months from the date of
ma
nufacture or other abuse, misuse, tire alteration, run flat.
• Any tires worn beyond the wear indicators. Less than 2/32"
r
emaining tread depth.
• Flat spotting caused by improper storage or brake lock.

OTHER LIMITATIONS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO THE
FO
LLOWING:
• Failure to rotate tires as recommended voids the tread wear
w
arranty.
• If tires are different size on front and rear of vehicle, and therefore
c
an’t be rotated, the mileage warranty for the rear tires will be half
of the stated mileage warranty.
• Winter tires must be used only in winter months, which are deter -
m
ined to be September 1st through April 30th of the following year.
Do
cumentation is required showing date of installation and

ROAD HAZARD REPLACEMENT PROGRAM
Most patterns sold by NEXEN TIRE are covered by a road hazard
wa
rranty that protects the consumer against non-repairable damage
caused by puncture, snag, cut, bruise or impact break. Typical road
hazards are nails, glass, potholes and other debris. Covered tires will
be eligible for a free replacement for the first 3/32" of original tread
depth, or for a period of two years from the date of purchase;
whichever comes first. If the DOT number on the tire is greater than
two years from the adjustment date, an invoice showing date of
purchase is necessary. The cost of mounting, balancing and any other
service charges including applicable taxes are required to be paid by
the consumer.

PIRELLI ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT & REPLACEMENT LIMITED
WARRANTY PASSENGER & LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
What Is Warranted and Who Is Eligible Under the Warranty?
Pirelli Tire Inc. (PTI), 1111, Boul. Dr. Frederik-Philips, suite 506,
St
.Laurent, Quebec, H4M 2X6, warrants to the original purchaser that
all Pirelli brand or PTI private brand Original Equipment and
Replacement Passenger and Light Truck radial tires with a complete
DOT identification number and branded Pirelli or a PTI private brand,
which are supplied by PTI, either directly or through an authorized
Pirelli Dealer, and which are mounted on passenger cars, vans and
light trucks within the US and Canada will be free from defects in
workmanship and materials. The Pirelli Original Equipment &
Replacement Limited Warranty is subject to periodic revision: see the
Warranty section at
www.ca.pirelli.com
for the latest version.
Original Equipment and Replacement Tires
Original Equipment Tires are defined as tires supplied as original
e q
uipment by the vehicle manufacturer on new vehicles. Original
Equipment tires are backed by Workmanship and Materials coverage.
The PTI Limited Tread wear warranty does not apply to Original
Equipment tires.
Replacement Tires are defined as tires mounted to your vehicle after
th
e Original Equipment tires have been removed. Replacement Tires
are backed by both Workmanship and Materials and PTI Limited
Tread wear coverage as defined in this document.
Tire Registration
Please request your dealer register your replacement tires, provide
yo
u with a registration card, or go to
www.ca.pirelli.com
to register
your tires on line. In case of a tire recall, we can reach you only if we
ha
ve your name and address. You must register your tires to be on our
list.
What Is The Adjustment Policy And For How Long?
If a Pirelli tire becomes unserviceable due to workmanship or material
an
omalies during the initial warranty period, which is one year from
the date of original retail purchase of the vehicle or purchase of
replacement tires (purchase receipt required) or within the first 2/32”

of the original usable tread, whichever occurs first, the tire will be
replaced with the same or comparable tire at no charge to the owner.
To receive consideration for warranty coverage, tires must be returned
to a PTI authorized dealer. Tire Inspection Personnel designated by
PTI make the final determination regarding qualification for
Workmanship and Materials and Limited Tread wear coverage on
tires submitted to Pirelli via an authorized Pirelli dealer. If the tire is
presented for ride related anomalies the warranty period is one year
from the date of original retail purchase of the vehicle or purchase of
replacement tires (purchase receipt required) or within the first 2/32”
of the original usable tread, whichever occurs first. The owner must
pay for any associated service charges, including costs associated with
mounting and balancing in both the aforementioned cases.
After the initial warranty period, if a Pirelli tire becomes unserviceable
d u
e to workmanship or material anomalies the owner must pay the
cost for a comparable new Pirelli brand or PTI private brand
replacement tire on a pro-rata basis. The authorized Pirelli Dealer will
determine the cost by multiplying the percentage of the original
usable tread worn by the current dealer selling price. The owner must
pay for any associated service charges, including costs associated with
mounting and balancing of the tire.
A tire has delivered its original usable tread life and is considered
10
0% worn when the tread wear indicators (2/32” tread remaining)
become visible regardless of age or mileage.
Pirelli Confidence Program™
Select Pirelli tires are covered by a 30 day trial period. At any time
d u
ring the 30 day period if you are not satisfied with any of the
qualifying lines listed below, the set of four tires with the original sales
receipt may be returned to the authorized Pirelli dealer from which
they were purchased and may be exchanged for a set of Pirelli tires for
equal or lesser value.

Road Hazard Policy For Run Flat Tires Only
Pirelli Run Flat tires are manufactured with technology that allows
li
mited low-inflation operation in the event of sudden loss of pressure.
Pirelli does not recommend the repair of run flat tires and as a result,
Pirelli provides road hazard coverage on all Pirelli produced tires that
are manufactured with run flat technology. To qualify for Run Flat
Road Hazard coverage, a completed claim form along with the tire
exhibiting the road hazard must be returned to Pirelli through an
authorized Pirelli dealer.
If a Run Flat tire becomes unserviceable due to workmanship or
ma
terials anomalies or road hazard injury during the initial warranty
period, which is one year from the date of original retail purchase of
the vehicle or purchase of replacement tires (purchase receipt
required) or within the first 2/32” of the original usable tread,
whichever occurs first, the tire will be replaced with the same or
comparable tire at no charge for the tire to the owner. After the initial
warranty period, if a Run Flat tire becomes unserviceable due to
workmanship or materials anomalies or road hazard injury, the owner
must pay the cost of a comparable new Pirelli brand or PTI private
brand replacement tire on a pro-rata basis. The authorized Pirelli
dealer will determine the cost by multiplying the percentage of the
original usable tread worn by the current dealer selling price. The
owner must pay for any associated service charges, including costs
associated with mounting and balancing of the tire. This Road Hazard
Policy is not a warranty. PTI does not warranty that a Pirelli tire will
not fail due to road hazard and does not authorize any person,
including authorized Pirelli dealers, to make such a warranty.
Pirelli “Seal Inside” Technology
Select Pirelli tires incorporate “Seal Inside” technology, a construction
d e
signed to stop the loss of air from a tire when punctured by an
object. Providing the puncture does not compromise the structural
integrity of the tire, a sealing material layer prevents possible air
leakage in the event of a carcass puncture.
The “Seal Inside” technology is not designed or intended to be a
pe
rmanent repair, and is only meant to allow the consumer to go to a
Pirelli dealer for an inspection to determine if repair or replacement is
needed.
