Therelative performance of tires depends uponthe actual conditions oftheir use, however,andmay depart significantly fromthe norm duetovariations in driving habits, service practices anddifferences inroadcharacteristics and climateconditions.
Tractiongrade
&DANGERRisk of accident duetoinade‐quate traction
The tractiongrade assignedtothis tire isbased onstraight-ahead braking tractiontests, and does not include either accelera‐tion, cornering,hydroplaning or peak tractioncharacteristics.
#Always adaptyour drivingstyle anddrive at a speedtosuitthe prevailingtraffic andweather conditions.
*NOTEDamagetothe drivetrain fromwheelspin
#Avoid wheelspin.
The traction grades – from highesttolowest –are AA,A,B and C. Those gradesrepresentthetire's abilitytostop onwet pavement as meas‐ured under controlled conditions on specifiedgovernmenttestsurfaces made of asphalt andconcrete.
Temperaturegrade
&WARNINGRisk of accident from tireoverheating and tirefailure
Thetemperature gradeforthis tire is estab‐lishedfor a tirethat is properly inflated andnotoverloaded. Excessive speed, underinfla‐tion, orexcessive loading, either separatelyor in combination, can causeexcessive heatbuild-up and possible tirefailure.
#Observetherecommended tire pres‐sures andregularlycheckthe tire pres‐
sure of all tires includingthe sparewheel.
#Adjustthe tire pressure as necessary.
Thetemperature grades are A (the highest), Band C. Theyrepresentthe tire'sresistancetothegeneration of heat and its abilitytodissipateheat whentested under controlled conditions ona specified indoor laboratorytestwheel. Sus‐tained hightemperature can causethe materialofthe tiretodegenerate andreduce tire life, andexcessivetemperature can leadtosudden tirefailure. Grade C correspondstoa level of per‐formance which all passenger car tires mustmeet undertherequirements ofthe US Depart‐ment ofTransportation.
