TIRE DISABLEMENT
SAFETY WARNING
Any tire may fail as a result of an improperly repaired puncture, impact damage, improper
in

flation, overloading or other conditions resulting from use or misuse. Tire failures, such
as a rapid air loss or a tread and belt detachment, may increase risk of injury or death
and/or property damage. To reduce the risk of a tire failure, Michelin® recommends you
thoroughly read and follow the recommendations in the Michelin® Owner’s Manual,
vehicle Owner’s Manual, tire placard information, and tire sidewall information regarding
safety warnings, proper tire use and maintenance.
CONTROLLABILITY
Controlling a vehicle when a tire failure occurs
If a tire failure occurs, you may hear a loud noise, feel a vibration, and/or the vehicle may
p u

ll toward the side of the failed tire. If possible, step on the accelerator momentarily to
maintain forward momentum and ensure vehicle control. It is most important that you

MICHELIN®
125
DO NOT BRAKE OR ABRUPTLY TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. Slowly remove your foot
from the accelerator and hold the steering wheel firmly while steering to remain in your
lane. Once the vehicle has slowed and is fully under control, apply the brakes gently;
safely pull over to the shoulder and come to a stop. Inspect the tires. If one or more looks
flat or low, shows detachment or other damage, remove tire assembly and replace it with
a properly inflated spare. Bumps or bulges may indicate detachment within the tire body
and require inspection by a qualified tire technician.
DRIVING ON ANY TIRE THAT DOES NOT HAVE THE CORRECT INFLATION PRESSURE
IS DANGEROUS
Any underinflated tire builds up excessive heat that may result in sudden tire destruction.
If tires are supplied as original equipment, refer to the tire decal on the vehicle (check
vehicle and/or vehicle Owner’s Manual for decal location) for the recommended
operating pressures. For replacement tires, the correct inflation pressure will be provided
by your tire retailer; if not, refer to the vehicle decal.
These inflation pressures must be maintained as a minimum. However, do not exceed
th
e maximum pressure rating indicated on the tire sidewall.
SELF-SUPPORTING TIRES. ZERO PRESSURE (ZP) TIRES, AND PAX® SYSTEM TIRES, AT
LO W

OR ZERO AIR PRESSURE
The handling characteristics of a vehicle with a deflated PAX® System tire or Self-
S u

pporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tire (whether front or rear) are not the same as those of a
vehicle with normally inflated tires. Avoid high speeds and hard cornering whenever a low
pressure warning is activated.
Even a MICHELIN® PAX® System Tire or Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tire can build
u p

excessive heat when run underinflated for an extended period of time. The length of
time and distance a PAX® System Tire/Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tire will
perform at low or zero air pressure will depend upon the severity of the event causing air
loss, ambient temperature, speed at which the tire is operated, and the conditions under
which the tire is operated (i.e. hard braking, cornering and other sharp maneuvers will
greatly reduce the length of time the tire can perform at low or zero air pressure.)
Continuous use of an underinflated tire may lead to sudden tire destruction. If a tire at
low or zero pressure begins to vibrate or cause difficulty in vehicle handling, remove the
tire immediately and replace with the temporary spare. If Michelin® PAX® System Tire/
Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires are supplied as original equipment, refer to the
vehicle owner’s manual for complete details on the low tire pressure warning system
designed to alert you in the event of a low pressure condition.
NOTE:
MICHELIN® SELF-SUPPORTING ZERO PRESSURE (ZP) TIRES ARE TO BE USED ONLY IN
C O

NJUNCTION WITH AN OPERATIONAL, MICHELIN® APPROVED, LOW TIRE PRESSURE
WARNING SYSTEM. Otherwise, all provisions of the limited warranty are void. For a list of
approved systems, see your participating Michelin® tire retailer, or call toll
free:1-800-847-3435

MICHELIN®
126
NOTE:
Some MICHELIN® Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires can only be mounted on
s p

ecial SH-M (Symmetric Hump - Modified) wheels. These tires bear the special SH-M
designation, molded into the sidewall of the tire, next to the ZP designation. DO NOT
MOUNT A TIRE WITH THE SH-M DESIGNATION ON THE SIDEWALL ON A STANDARD
WHEEL. DOING SO VOIDS THIS LIMITED WARRANTY AND COULD CAUSE THE TIRE TO
BECOME UNSERVICEABLE AT LOW OR ZERO PRESSURE, RESULTING IN SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
NOTE:
MICHELIN® PAX® SYSTEM TIRES ARE TO BE USED ONLY IN CONJUNCTION WITH AN
O P

ERATIONAL, TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS), APPROVED BY THE
VEHICLE MANUFACTURER FOR USE WITH THE PAX® SYSTEM. Otherwise, all provisions
of the limited warranty are void. For a list of approved systems, see an authorized PAX®
System retailer, or call toll free: 1-877-PAX TIRE or 1-877-729-8473
For all types of tires, consult your vehicle tire placard or owner’s manual for
r e

commended operating pressures. If the tires are purchased as replacement tires,
operating instructions for the low pressure warning system will be provided by the
manufacturer of that system. Recommended operating pressures will be provided by a
participating Michelin® tire retailer for self supporting ZP tires. Recommended operating
pressure for PAX® System Tires will be provided by a PAX® System retailer. These
inflation pressures must be maintained as a minimum. However, do not exceed the
maximum pressure rating indicated on the tire sidewall.
CHECK THE COLD INFLATION PRESSURES IN ALL YOUR TIRES, INCLUDING THE SPARE,
A T

LEAST ONCE EACH MONTH
Failure to maintain correct inflation may result in improper vehicle handling and may
c a

use rapid and irregular tire wear, sudden tire destruction, loss of vehicle control and
serious personal injury. Therefore, inflation pressures should be checked at least once
each month and always prior to long distance trips. This applies to all tires, including
sealant types, and Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires which are as susceptible to
losing air pressure as any other type of tire if not properly maintained.
UNDERINFLATION
It is impossible to determine whether tires are properly inflated by simply looking at them.
It is almost impossible to “feel or hear” when a tire is being run underinflated or nearly
flat. Tires must be checked monthly with a tire pressure gauge.
Pressures should be checked when tires are cold, in other words, before they have been
d r

iven on. Driving, even for a short distance, causes tires to heat up and air pressure to
increase.
Checking pressure when tires are hot:
If pressures are checked after tires have been driven for more than three minutes or
m o

re than 1 mile, (2 km) the tires become hot and the pressures will increase by
a p

proximately 4 psi. Therefore when the tire pressure is adjusted under these
conditions, it should be increased to a gauge reading of 4 psi greater than the
recommended cold inflation pressure.

MICHELIN®
128
should have the recommended pressure listed by your vehicle’s manufacturer. This
information can be found in the vehicle Owner’s Manual and often on a placard located
in the vehicle’s door jamb, inside the fuel hatch, or on the glove compartment door. If you
have a plus size fitment that requires a higher inflation pressure, your tire pressure
monitoring system will require re-calibration to new inflation pressure. Refer to your tire
dealer/installer of plus size tires for proper inflation pressure.
We recommend checking air pressure once each month, and before a long trip. Whether
yo

u have a full-sized or mini-spare, make sure that it is properly inflated as well. If the
TPMS generates improper monitoring or signals we recommend that you consult your
Owner’s Manual provided with your vehicle and follow-up with your vehicle’s
manufacturer.
TIRE SPINNING
Do not spin wheels in excess of 35 mph (55 km/h) as indicated on the speedometer.
Ex
cessive speed in a free-running, unloaded tire can cause it to “explode” from
centrifugal force. The energy released by such an explosion is sufficient to cause serious
physical injury or death. Never allow anyone to stand near or behind the spinning tire.
When in mud, sand, snow, ice or other slippery conditions, do not engage in excessive
w h

eel spin. Accelerating the motor excessively, particularly with automatic transmission
vehicles, may cause a drive tire that has lost traction to spin beyond its speed capability.
This is also true when balancing a drive tire/wheel assembly on the vehicle using the
vehicle engine to spin the tire/wheel assembly.
HIGH SPEED DRIVING CAN BE DANGEROUS
Correct inflation pressure is especially important. However, at high speeds, even with the
correct inflation pressure, a road hazard, for example is more difficult to avoid and if
contact is made, has a greater chance of causing tire damage than at a lower speed.
Moreover, driving at high speed reduces the reaction time available to avoid accidents
and bring your vehicle to a safe stop. If you see any damage to a tire or wheel, replace it
with the spare at once and visit a participating Michelin® tire retailer.
Exceeding the maximum speeds shown on the following page for each type of Michelin®
t i

re will cause the tire to build up excessive heat which can cause tire damage that could
result in sudden tire destruction and rapid air loss. Failure to control a vehicle when one
or more tires experience a sudden air loss can lead to an accident.
In any case, you should not exceed reasonable speeds as indicated by the legal limits
a n

d driving conditions.
SPEED RATINGS
Speed Symbols are shown on the sidewall of some Michelin® tires. The following table
shows the maximum speed corresponding to the symbol.

*Some V (or VR) rated tires may have a speed capacity greater than 149 mph (240 km/h).
C o

nsult your participating Michelin® tire retailer for maximum speed rating if your vehicle
capability exceeds this speed.

MICHELIN®
129
**Z (or ZR) rated tires are designed to use on cars with maximum speed capabilities in
excess of 149 mph (240 km/h).
(W and Y speed ratings are subcategories of Z).
Consult your Michelin® tire retailer for maximum speed capabilities. For PAX® System
Ti
res consult an authorized PAX® System Tire Retailer. Although a tire may be
speed-rated, we do not endorse the operation of any vehicle in an unsafe or unlawful
manner. Speed ratings are based on laboratory tests which relate to performance on the
road, but are not applicable if tires are underinflated, overloaded, worn out, damaged,
altered, improperly repaired or retreaded.
Furthermore, a tire’s speed rating does not imply that vehicles can be safely driven at the
m a

ximum speed for which the tire is rated, particularly under adverse road and weather
conditions or if the vehicle has unusual characteristics.
Michelin® highway passenger tires that do not have a speed symbol on the sidewall have
a

maximum speed rating of 105 mph (170 km/h). Light truck highway tires that do not
h a

ve a speed symbol on the sidewall of the tire have a maximum speed rating of 87 mph
( 1

40 km/h).
Michelin® Winter tires that do not have a speed symbol on the sidewall or tires with Q
s y

mbols have a speed rating of 100 mph (160 km/h). Winter tires with a speed symbol
h a

ve a maximum speed rating in accordance with the symbol.
The speed and other ratings of retreaded tires are assigned by the retreader and replace
t h

e original manufacturer’s ratings.
IMPORTANT: In order to maintain the speed capability of the vehicle, replacement tires
m u

st have speed ratings equal to or higher than those fitted as original equipment (as
indicated on the vehicle tire placard or Owner’s Manual). If tires with lower speed ratings
are fitted, the vehicle’s handling may be affected and the speed capability of the vehicle
will be lowered to the maximum speed capability of the replacement tires as indicated in
the following table.
REMEMBER H
igh speed driving can be dangerous and may damage your tires.
AND When driving at highway speeds, correct inflation pressure is especially important.

INSPECT YOUR TIRES, DO NOT DRIVE ON A DAMAGED TIRE OR WHEEL
HAZARDS
Objects in the road, such as potholes, glass, metal, rocks, wood, debris and similar items,
ca

n damage a tire and should be safely avoided. Unavoidable contact with such objects
should prompt a thorough tire inspection.
Anytime you see any damage to your tires or wheels, replace with the spare at once and
i m

mediately visit any Michelin® tire retailer. For PAX® System Tires see an authorized
PAX® System tire retailer.
IMPACT DAMAGE
A tire impacted by a road hazard (curb, pothole, debris) may be damaged but not have
v i

sible signs of damage on its surface. A tire damaged by an impact may sustain a
sudden failure a day, week, or even months later. You may not recall hitting an object that
damaged or injured your tires. Air loss, unusual tire wear, localized wear or vibrations can
also be signs of internal tire damage.
If you suspect any damage to your tire or wheel from an impact with a curb, pothole or
de
bris on the road or any other road hazard, or if you feel or hear any unusual vibration,
replace with a properly inflated spare at once and immediately visit any qualified tire
technician.
INSPECTION
When inspecting your tires, including the spare, check the air pressures. If the pressure
c h

eck indicates that one of your tires has lost pressure of two pounds or more, look for
signs of penetration, valve leakage or wheel damage that may account for the air loss.
Always look for bulges, cracks, cuts, penetrations, and abnormal tire wear, particularly
o n

the edges of the tire tread, which may be caused by misalignment or underinflation.
If any such damage is found, the tire must be inspected by any Michelin® tire retailer at
once. Use of a damaged tire could result in tire destruction.
All tires will wear out faster when subjected to high speeds as well as hard cornering,
r a

pid starts, sudden stops, frequent driving on roads which are in poor condition, and off
road use. Roads with holes and rocks or other objects can damage tires and cause H

misalignment of your vehicle. When driving on such roads, drive carefully and slowly, and
before driving again at normal or highway speeds, examine your tires for any damage,
such as cuts, bulges, penetrations, unusual wear patterns, etc.
WEAR-BARS
Michelin® tires contain “Wear-Bars” in the grooves of the tire tread which show up when
o n

ly 2/32 of an inch (1.6 mm) of tread is remaining. At this stage, your tires must be
r e

placed. Tires worn beyond this stage are extremely dangerous.
DO NOT OVERLOAD - DRIVING ON ANY OVERLOADED TIRE IS DANGEROUS
The maximum load rating of your tires is molded on the tire sidewall. Do not exceed this
rating. Follow the loading instructions of FCA US LLC for your vehicle and this will ensure
that your tires are not overloaded. Tires which are loaded beyond their maximum
allowable loads for the particular application will build up excessive heat that may result
in sudden tire destruction.
Do not exceed the gross axle weight rating for any axle on your vehicle.
TRAILER TOWING
If you anticipate towing a trailer, you should visit any Michelin® tire retailer for advice
c o

ncerning the correct size tire and pressures. Tire size and pressures will depend upon
the type and size of trailer and hitch utilized, but in no case must the maximum cold
inflation pressure or tire load rating be exceeded. Check the tire decal and the owner’s
manual supplied by FCA US LLC for your vehicle for further recommendations on trailer
towing.
MICHELIN® PAX® System Tires/Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) Tires and Trailer
T o

wing
Operation of Pax® or ZP tires at low or zero air pressure with a trailer in tow, is dangerous
a n

d is not recommended. If the low pressure warning indicator is activated when a trailer
is in tow, stop, disconnect the trailer, and do not continue to tow the trailer until the tire
has been repaired and re-inflated to the proper air pressure. If the tire cannot be
repaired, it must be replaced with a new full size, PAX®/ZP tire, and inflated to the proper
air pressure, before the trailer can be safely towed again.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCING ARE IMPORTANT FOR SAFETY AND MAXIMUM
M I

LEAGE FROM YOUR TIRES.
CHECK HOW YOUR TIRES ARE WEARING AT LEAST ONCE EACH MONTH
If your tires are wearing unevenly, such as the inside shoulder of the tire wearing faster
th
an the rest of the tread, or if you detect excessive vibration, your vehicle may be out of
alignment or balance. These conditions not only shorten the life of your tires but
adversely affect the handling characteristics of your vehicle, which could be dangerous.
If you detect irregular wear or vibration, have your alignment and balance checked
immediately. Tires which have been ran underinflated will show more wear on the
shoulders than in the center of the tread.

MICHELIN®
133
Full-size Spare
Full-size spare tires (not temporary spares) of the same size and construction should be
u s

ed in a five tire rotation. Always check the inflation pressure of the full-size spare
immediately before incorporating it into rotation. Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s
recommended pattern for rotation, or if not available, see a qualified tire technician.
Replacement of Two Tires
It is recommended that all four tires are replaced at the same time. However, when only
t w

o tires are replaced, the new tires should be put on the rear. The new tires, with deeper
tread, may provide better grip and water evacuation in wet driving conditions.
CUSTOMIZATION OF TIRES, WHEELS, OR SUSPENSION ON SUVS AND LIGHT
TRUCKS
Due to their size, weight and higher center of gravity, vehicles such as SUVs and light
trucks do not have the same handling characteristics as automobiles. Because of these
differing characteristics, failure to operate your SUV/truck in a proper and safe manner
can increase the likelihood of vehicle rollover. Modifications to your SUV/truck tire size,
tire type, wheels or suspension can change its handling characteristics and further
increase the likelihood of vehicle rollover. Whether your SUV/truck has the original
equipment configuration for tires, wheels and suspension or whether any of these items
have been modified, always drive safely, avoid sudden, sharp turns or lane changes and
obey all traffic laws. Failure to do so may result in loss of vehicle control leading to an
accident and serious injury or death.
TIRE ALTERATIONS
Do not make or allow to be made any alterations on your tires. Alterations may prevent
proper performance, leading to tire damage which can result in an accident. Tires which
become unserviceable due to alterations such as truing, whitewall inlays, addition of
balancing or sealant liquids, or the use of tire dressing containing petroleum distillates
are excluded from warranty coverage.
REPAIRS WHEREVER POSSIBLE, SEE YOUR MICHELIN® TIRE RETAILER AT ONCE
If any MICHELIN® tire sustains a puncture, have the tire demounted and thoroughly
inspected by any MICHELIN® tire retailer for possible damage that may have occurred.
A tread area puncture in any MICHELIN® passenger or light truck tire can be repaired
provided that the puncture hole is not more than 1/4 inch in diameter, not more than
o n

e radial cable per casing ply is damaged, and the tire has not been damaged further
by the puncturing object or by running underinflated. Tire punctures consistent with
these guidelines can be repaired by following the US Tire Manufacturers Association
(USTMA) recommended repair procedures.
TIRE REPAIRS
Repairs of all tires must be of the combined plug and inside patch type. Your MICHELIN®
PAX® System tires must be removed from the wheel for inspection prior to repair. Plug
only repairs are improper. A tire should be removed from the rim and inspected prior to

MICHELIN®
134
repair. Any tire repair done without removing the tire from the rim is improper. An
improperly repaired tire will cause further damage to the tire by either leaking air or
allowing air, moisture and contaminants to enter the structure of the tire. An improperly
repaired tire can fail suddenly at a later date.
Never repair a tire with less than 2/32nds of an inch tread remaining. At this tread depth,
th

e tire is worn out and must be replaced.
STORAGE
Tires contain waxes and emollients to protect their outer surfaces from ozone and
weather checking. As the tire rolls and flexes, the waxes and emollients continually
migrate to the surface, replenishing this protection throughout the normal use of the tire.
Consequently, when tires sit outdoors, unused for long periods of time (a month or more)
their surfaces become dry and more susceptible to ozone and weather checking and the
casing becomes susceptible to flat spotting. For this reason, tires should always be
stored in a cool, dry, clean, indoor environment. If storage is for one month or more,
eliminate the weight from the tires by raising the vehicle or by removing the tires from
the vehicle. Failure to store tires in accordance with these instructions could result in
damage to your tires or premature aging of the tires and sudden tire failure.
When tires are stored, be sure they are placed away from sources of heat and ozone such
a s

hot pipes and electric generators. Be sure that surfaces on which tires are stored are
clean and free from grease, gasoline or other substances which could deteriorate the
rubber. Tires exposed to these materials during storage or driving could be subject to
sudden failure.
FOLLOW THESE MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS
Tire changing can be dangerous and must be done by professionally trained persons
using proper tools and procedures as specified by the Rubber Manufacturers
Association (RMA). PAX® System tires must be mounted and dismounted only by
specially trained, authorized PAX® System retailers, utilizing PAX® System authorized
equipment.
Your tires should be mounted on wheels of correct size and type and which are in good,
cle
an condition. Wheels that are bent, chipped, rusted (steel wheels) or corroded (alloy
wheels) may cause tire damage. The inside of the tire must be free from foreign material.
Have your retailer check the wheels before mounting new tires. Mismatched tires and
rims can explode during mounting. Also, mismatched tires and rims can result in
dangerous tire failure on the road. If a tire is mounted by error on the wrong-sized rim, do
not remount it on the proper rim, scrap it. It may have been damaged internally (which is
not externally visible) by having been dangerously stretched and could fail on the
highway.
Old valves may leak. When new tubeless tires are mounted, have new valves of the
c o

rrect type installed. Tubeless tires must only be mounted on wheels designed for
tubeless tires i.e., wheels which have safety humps or ledges. As with any other tire air
valve, the PAX® System valve stem-pressure sensor combination must be in good

MICHELIN®
135
condition to assure its performance. Always utilize valve caps capable of containing the
tire’s air pressure, should the valve core leak. The valve cap is the primary seal against
air loss.
It is recommended that you have your tires and wheels balanced. Tires and wheels which
a r

e not balanced may cause steering difficulties, a bumpy ride, and irregular tire wear.
SPECIAL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR PAX® SYSTEM TIRES
PAX® System wheels are different from all other wheels. Never attempt to mount a
non-PAX® System tire on a PAX® System wheel, or a PAX® System tire on a non-PAX®
System wheel. Attempting to do so could cause serious injury or death. All PAX® System
components (tire, wheel, support ring, pressure sensor and gel) must be utilized. Never
utilize a PAX® System tire and wheel without every other properly functioning component
part, correctly installed by an Authorized PAX® System retailer. The PAX® System must
be used on all wheel positions.
After a low or zero pressure driving event, the PAX® System tire and wheel may be hot to
th

e touch. Always allow a PAX® System tire to cool before attempting to handle it. Failure
to do so could result in injury.
SPECIAL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR SELF-SUPPORTING ZERO PRESSURE™ (ZP)
T I

RES
ZP tires can be more difficult to mount than conventional tires. They should be mounted
a n

d demounted only by a properly trained tire professional. ZP tires can generate a
tremendous amount of heat when run at low or zero pressure. ALWAYS ALLOW A ZP TIRE
TO COOL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO HANDLE IT. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN
INJURY.
MICHELIN® ZP tires are tubeless tires designed to operate in emergency conditions at
lo
w or zero air pressure.
MICHELIN® SELF SUPPORTING Zero Pressure™ (ZP) TIRES AND SPECIAL SYMMETRIC
H U

MP-MODIFIED (SH-M) WHEELS
Some MICHELIN® ZP tires can only perform with zero pressure capability when mounted
o n

special SH-M wheels. These tires bear the SH-M designation immediately following
the ZP designation on the sidewall of the tire. DO NOT MOUNT ZP TIRES WITH THE SH-M
DESIGNATION ON STANDARD WHEELS. IN SUCH APPLICATIONS, THE TIRES MAY
BECOME UNSERVICEABLE AT LOW OR ZERO PRESSURE, CAUSING SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY OR DEATH.
SPECIAL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR MICHELIN® TRX™ TIRES
The MICHELIN® TRX™ tire is a tubeless tire that must only be mounted on special wheels
( T

R 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 tubes. The MICHELIN®
T R

X™ tire must be used on all wheel positions.
