TYPICAL PASSENGER TIRE
The letters “DOT” certify compliance with all applicable safety
s t
andards established by the U.S. Department of Transportation
(DOT). Adjacent to this is a tire identification or serial number. This
serial number is a code with up to 12 digits that are a combination of
numbers and letters. The last characters are numbers identifying the
week and year of manufacture. (For example, “1502” means the
fifteenth week of the year 2002.)
The DOT requires tire manufacturers to grade passenger car tires
ba
sed on three performance factors: Treadwear, Traction and
Temperature resistance. (See the “Uniform Tire Quality Grading
(UTQG)” section for more details.)
The sidewall also shows the type of cord and the number of plies in
th
e sidewall and under the tread.

UNIFORM TIRE QUALITY GRADING (UTQG)
The Uniform Tire Quality Grading (UTQG) standards are intended to
a s
sist you in making an informed choice in your purchase of
passenger car tires by providing information indicating relative
performance in the areas of treadwear, wet stopping traction, and
temperature resistance. All passenger car tires must conform to
federal safety requirements in addition to these grades.
• Treadwear - The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on
t
he wear rate of the tire tested under controlled conditions on a spec -
ified government test track. For example, a tire graded 200 would
we
ar twice as long on the government course as a tire graded 100. It
is wrong to link treadwear grades with your projected tire mileage.
The relative performance of the tires depends upon the actual condi -

tions of their use and may vary due to driving habits, service prac-
tices, differences in road characteristics, and climate.
• Traction - The traction grades from highest to lowest are AA, A, B,
a
nd C, and they represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement
as measured under controlled conditions on specified government
test surfaces of asphalt and concrete.
• Temperature - The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C,
r
epresenting the tire’s resistance to the generation of heat and its
ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions on
a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high tempera -
tures can cause the materials of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire
li
fe, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The
grade C corresponds to a level of performance that all passenger car
tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
No. 139. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on
the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law.
• D OT Quality Grades - All passenger car tires must conform to
f
ederal requirements in addition to these grades. CAUTION!
The traction grade assigned to tires is based on locked braking
( s
traight ahead) traction tests and does not include cornering
(turning) traction.
WARNING!
The temperature grade is established for a tire that is properly
in
flated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinflation, or
excessive loading either separately or in combination can cause
heat buildup and possible tire failure. This can cause an accident,
which could lead to serious personal injury or death.

DOT SERIAL NUMBER SYSTEM
TIRE REGISTRATION
Your original equipment tires are registered through the vehicle
m a
nufacturer.
When you purchase replacement Toyo brand tires, the seller is required
by
the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to present you
with a tire registration form. Toyo Tire U.S.A. Corp. provides a
registration card at no charge to all Toyo Tires® dealers. The dealer
must fill in the dealer name, address, and serial numbers of the tires
purchased. You, the buyer, should then fill in your name and address,
place a stamp on the form, and mail it to the pre-addressed location on
the form. Be sure to have your dealer complete their portion of the
registration card included in this Limited Warranty at the time of
purchase. The information contained in the registration card is an
important means to notify you in the event of a product recall.

and select “Tire Registration.” Be prepared to
provide the name and address of the dealer, the quantity of tires, and
th
e DOT serial numbers from the sidewall of the tires.
IMPORTANT! If self-registering tires, make sure to include all letters
an
d numbers (up to 12 digits) following the letters “DOT” on the tire’s
sidewall near the bead. If you see only four letters next to the letters
“DOT”, look on the other side of the tire for the full DOT number.

. WHAT IS WARRANTED
Tires that have become unserviceable for reasons other than stated
ab
ove will be replaced in accordance with this warranty.
If a warrantable condition is found, tires will be replaced as follows:
A) Passenger Car and Light Truck Tires (Other than Temporary
Sp
are Tires)
When a tire becomes unserviceable during the first 2/32 inch (1.6 mm)
of

pu
rchase, whichever comes first, it will be replaced with a comparable
new YOKOHAMA tire free of charge. During this period, tires will be
mounted and balanced without charge. Other service charges such as
tire rotation, alignment or applicable taxes are payable by the
customer.
When a tire has worn past the above specified period for free
re
placement, the customer must pay for the cost of a new comparable
YOKOHAMA passenger car or light truck tire on a pro-rated basis.
The dealer shall determine this cost by multiplying the percentage of
Page 258 of 262

YOKOHAMA TIRES — LIMITED WARRANTY
257
usable tread worn by the current retail selling price of that tire at the
time of warranty replacement. The costs of mounting, balancing and
any other service charges or applicable taxes are payable by the
customer.
The tire is covered by this warranty for the life of the original usable
tr
ead (the original tread depth down to the level of tread wear
indicator bars molded at 2/32 inch or 1.6 mm) or for 48 months from
th
e date of vehicle purchase, whichever comes first. This time period
does not represent the expected service life for tires covered by this
warranty.

YOKOHAMA TEMPORARY SPARE TIRE
High Pressure Spare Operating Instructions
Any tire, no matter how well constructed, may fail due to improper
ma
intenance or service factors. Tire failure may create a risk of
property damage and serious or fatal injury. For your safety, please
follow the instructions below.
1. The YOKOHAMA high pressure spare tire is designed for tempo -
r
ary use only and must not be used continually as a regular tire.
2. Avoid driving over obstacles that may damage the tire through
i
mpact or cutting, such as potholes, glass, metal, etc.
3. Speed must not exceed 50
mph (80 km/h) for non-speed-rated
Te
mporary Spare tires.
4. A tread life of up to 3,000
miles (4,800 km) can be expected
de
pending on road conditions and your driving habits. To
conserve tire tread life, the spare should be returned to the trunk as
soon as the standard tire can be repaired or replaced.
5. Because the YOKOHAMA high pressure spare tire was specifically
d
esigned for your car, it should not be used on any other vehicle.

6. Do not use snow chains on your YOKOHAMA high pressure
spare. This could cause damage to your vehicle.
7. When the tread wear indicator appears on the tire, replace it only
w
ith the same type spare tire.
8. Check the tire’s cold inflation pressure monthly and maintain at 60
p
si (4.2 kg/cm2) even when not in use. Do not inflate over 60 psi.
9. The YOKOHAMA high pressure spare tire should not be used with
a
ny other rim nor should standard tires, wheel covers, or trim rings
be used on the YOKOHAMA high pressure spare tire rim on which
the YOKOHAMA high pressure spare tire was originally installed.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
All tires require owner maintenance regardless of how well a tire is
co
nstructed. Operational damages such as punctures, impact
damage, cuts, incorrect inflation, etc., may cause tire failure and
subsequent personal injury and/or property damage. Simple
operational and maintenance practices, as listed below, will reduce
the chances of tire problems.
Tire Inspection
Visually inspect your tires frequently for any tire damage such as
sc
rapes, bulges, cuts, nails, irregular wear, etc. resulting from
operation. This must be done immediately after any known or
suspected contact with an object in the road, a pothole, road
irregularity or after severe braking. Refer these conditions to a
reputable tire service center for repair or replacement. Never drive on
a tire if such conditions appear.
Tire Loading
Never exceed the maximum vehicle load limit listed on the vehicle
pl
acard, tire information label or in the Owners Manual. Be aware of
the load carrying limits molded into the tire’s sidewall and do not
exceed those limits. Maximum load can only be carried at the
maximum cold inflation pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall.
Speed Limits
Regardless of the speed capability of your tires, never exceed lawful
sp
eeds or speeds dictated by driving conditions.
