WARNING!(Continued)
•Check the cold inflation pressure in all of your tires, including the
spare tire, at least once every week and always prior to long
distance trips. Failure to maintain the proper air inflation pressure
may result in improper vehicle handling, and may cause rapid and
irregular tire wear, reduction in tire durability, loss of vehicle
control, or sudden tire failure that may lead to property damage,
serious personal injury or death.
•Use an accurate tire gauge to check tire air pressures. Always
maintain the proper recommended air inflation pressure in all
tires. If there is an indication that one of your tires has lost four or
more pounds of air pressure, immediately look for signs of
penetration through the tire, valve leaks or wheel damage that may
account for the air loss. You should also have your tires inspected
by a tire retailer immediately.
•Air pressure should be checked when tires are cold (before they
have been driven), ideally in the early morning. Driving, regard-
less of distance, causes tires to heat up and simultaneously
increase air pressure.
•Never exceed the maximum inflation pressure for the tire.
•Never bleed air from hot tires as this may result in underinflation.
•→Inspect your tires daily. If you notice any damage to your tires
or wheels, replace them with a spare and immediately visit any tire
retailer for advice. Driving over potholes, curbs, wood debris,
metal, etc., can damage a tire and should be safely avoided. Contact
with such hazards requires an immediate and thorough tire
inspection by your tire retailer.
•Always examine your tires for penetrations, bulges, cracks, cuts,
and abnormal wear – particularly at the tire edges – which may be
caused by, for example, vehicle misalignment or tire underinfla-
tion. Failure to properly control a vehicle when one or more tires
are underinflated may result in an accident. Use of a damaged tire
may result in rapid air loss, including sudden tire failure.
•An explosion of the tire/rim assembly may occur due to improper
mounting. Only specially trained persons should mount tires.
•→Failure to store tires in accordance with the following recom-
mendations may result in damage to your tires, reduction in tire
durability, or sudden tire failure:

Temporary Spares
MICHELIN® temporary spare tires are covered by this warranty for
6 years from the date of purchase or until the first 2/32 nds of an inch
(1.6 mm) of the original tread is worn off. Date of purchase is docu-
mented by new vehicle registration or tire sales invoice. If no proof of
purchase is available, coverage will be based on date of manufacture. At
that time, all warranties, express or implied, expire.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED
Tires which become unserviceable due to:
•Road hazard injury (e.g., a cut, snag, bruise, impact damage or
puncture);
•Incorrect mounting of the tire, tire/wheel imbalance or improper
repair;
•Misapplication, improper maintenance, racing, underinflation, overin-
flation or other abuse;
•Uneven or rapid wear which is caused by mechanical irregularity in
the vehicle such as wheel misalignment, (a measured tread difference
of 2/32 nds of an inch (1.6 mm) or more across the tread on the same
tire);
•Accident, fire, chemical corrosion, tire alteration, or vandalism;
•Use in commercial applications for tread wear; by this warranty for
6 years;
•Flat spotting caused by improper storage or brake lock;
•The addition of liquid, solid or gaseous materials other than air,
nitrogen or carbon dioxide (for example, waterbase sealers or balanc-
ing substances);
•Cosmetic ozone or weather cracking;
•Use of MICHELIN Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (AP) tires without a
properly operating low air pressure warning system.

IMPACT DAMAGE
A tire impacted by a road hazard (curb, pothole, debris) may be damaged
but not have visible 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, debris 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 check 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 on 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, rapid 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 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 only 2/32 nds of an inch (1.6 mm) of tread is
remaining. At this stage, your tires must be replaced. Tires worn beyond
this stage are extremely dangerous.
MICHELIN

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 the manufac-
turer of 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 concerning 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 the manufacturer of your vehicle for further recommenda-
tions on trailer towing.
MICHELIN® PAX® System Tires/Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP)
Tires and Trailer Towing
Operation of Pax or ZP tires at low or zero air pressure with a trailer in
tow, is dangerous and 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 MILEAGE 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 than 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

TIRE CARE AND MAINTENANCE GUIDE
Tire failure can result in serious damage and/or personal injury. To
reduce the risk of tire failure we recommend the following:
•Maintain proper inflation pressure and do not use at under inflation or
over inflation. Pressure should be set at the level recommended by
vehicle manufacturer.
•Wheel alignment and balancing should be checked at regular intervals.
•Do not overload. The maximum load carrying capacity is molded on
the sidewall of the tire.
•Do not spin your tires excessively and avoid driving over curbs,
potholes, obstacles and edges of pavement.
•Never drive on smooth (bald) tires. By law, tires must be replaced
when 2/32of tread depth remained, as indicated by tread wear
indicator molded in the tread grooves.
•Check your tires frequently for any scrapes, cuts, foreign objects,
separations or bulges. If damage is found, do not attempt to dismount
a tire yourself. Change damaged tire with the spare and contact your
local authorized NEXEN TIRE dealer immediately.
•Do not drive in excess of speed limits allowed by law or the maximum
speed justified by driving conditions.
•To achieve proper even wear and gain maximum tread life, tire
rotation at regular intervals is required.

Pirelli “Seal Inside” Technology
Select Pirelli tires incorporate “Seal Inside” technology, a construction
designed 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
permanent 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.
