Door combination FORD F-150 2022 Owners Manual

Traction AA A B C
WARNING: The traction
grade assigned to this tire is
based on straight-ahead braking
traction tests, and does not
include acceleration, cornering,
hydroplaning or peak traction
characteristics.
The traction grades, from highest
to lowest are AA, A, B, and C. The
grades represent the tire ’s ability
to stop on wet pavement as
measured under controlled
conditions on specified
government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete. A tire
marked C may have poor traction
performance.
Temperature A B C WARNING:
The
temperature grade for this tire is
established for a tire that is
properly inflated and not
overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive
loading, either separately or in
combination, can cause heat
buildup and possible tire failure.
The temperature grades are A
(the highest), B and C,
representing 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
temperature can cause the
material of the tire to degenerate
and reduce tire life, and excessive
temperature can lead to sudden
tire failure. The grade C
corresponds to a level of
performance which 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.
INFORMATION ON THE TIRE
SIDEWALL
Both United States and Canada
Federal regulations require tire
manufacturers to place
standardized information on the
sidewall of all tires. This
information identifies and
describes the fundamental
characteristics of the tire and also
provides a U.S. DOT Tire
Identification Number for safety
standard certification and in case
of a recall.

USING BEAD-LOCK WHEELS -
RAPTOR
Your vehicle comes with unique wheels
matched to the tires. To avoid damage to
your wheels:
•
Maintain proper tire pressure.
• Due to extreme tire and wheel width,
do not take your vehicle through an
automatic car wash that uses
mechanical tracks, as wheel damage
may result.
• When installing wheels, always torque
lug nuts to specification with a torque
wrench.
• Inspect your wheels for damage on a
regular basis. If you have a damaged
wheel, replace it immediately.
• If you encounter an abnormally harsh
impact, inspect the outside tire wall of
your wheels, both inside and out, for
damage.
Note: Ford Performance only recommends
using bead-lock rings from Ford
Performance Parts, in conjunction with the
original equipment manufacturer (OEM)
tire. Any other combination using this wheel
could result in air loss or tire failure.
Note: Converting the bead-lock compatible
wheel to true bead-locks is for off-road use
only. We do not approve of the use of true
bead-locks for on-road driving.
If your vehicles equipped with the optional
bead lock compatible wheel, you can
convert this wheel to use a true bead-lock
ring, which allows operation at low tire
pressures when off-road to minimize the
risk of de-beading the tire. See your local
Ford Performance Parts Dealer for more
information. Tire Care WARNING: Always re-inflate tires
to recommended tire pressures before
the vehicle is operated on-road. The
recommended pressure is located on the
tire label or safety certification label,
located on the B-pillar, inside the driver's
door. WARNING:
After off-road use,
before returning to the road, check the
wheels and tires for damage. Off-road
use may cause damage to your wheels
and tires that can lead to tire failure, loss
of vehicle control, serious injury or death. WARNING:
Replace the wheels
and tires with the exact original brand,
size and construction that came
originally on your vehicle. Use of any
other wheel or tire combinations, even
with identical size ratings, may result in
insufficient running clearances, tire
rubbing and eventual puncture. Failure
to follow tire replacement
recommendations can lead to tire failure,
loss of vehicle control, serious injury or
death.
Note: If you have reduced your tire pressure
for off-road use, the tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) warning light then activates
in the instrument panel as a reminder to
re-inflate the tires before returning to the
road.
