TIRES INCLUDING TEMPORARY TIRES
LIMITED WARRANTY FOR ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT
PASSENGER CAR & LIGHT TRUCK TIRES INCLUD-
ING TEMPORARY TIRES.
1. WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW
LONG.
Hankook warrants that a tire manufactured by Hankook
and equipped originally on the vehicle is free from
defects in materials or workmanship in normal use for
the life of the original usable tread. The life of the original
usable tread ends when the tire tread has been worn
down with only 1.6mm (2/32nds inch) remaining, at
which point the tire is considered to be fully worn out.
●PASSENGER CAR AND LIGHT TRUCK
TIRES
(A) Free replacement
If Hankook Radial Passenger & Light Truck
Tires fail as a result of defect in material
and/or workmanship within the first 25% of
treadwear, the tire will be replaced with a
new, comparable Hankook Tire at no charge
including mounting and balancing charges. ●
PASSENGER CAR AND LIGHT TRUCK
TIRES
(B) Pro rata replacement
Tires not qualifying for free replacement will
be allowed a credit toward purchase of a
new, comparable Hankook Tire based upon
the amount of tread actually worn. The cost
of mounting, balancing and any other service
charges or applicable taxes shall be paid by
the user. Otherwise adjustment for compen-
sation will be made on a prorata basis calcu-
lated by multiplying the actual current dealer
selling price by the percentage of remaining
usable tread depth.
● HANKOOK TEMPORARY TIRE
(A) A Temporary tire weighs less and provides
more trunk storage space than a conven-
tional tire. To conserve tire tread life, tempo-
rary tire should be returned to the trunk as
soon as it is convenient to have your stan-
dard tire repaired or replaced.
(B) If Hankook Temporary Tire fails as a result of
defect in materials and/or workmanship dur-
ing the first 50% of usable treadwear, the
tire will be replaced with a new, comparable
tire at no charge including mounting charge.
No adjustment will be made for tires that are
worn more than 50%.
2. WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THE
WARRANTY
●NON-ADJUSTABLE CONDITIONS
A. Irregular wear or tire damage due to: – Road hazards such as punctures, cuts, snags,scuffs, carcass bruises or impact breaks.
– Fire, wreck or collision.
– Improper inflation, overloading, high speed spin- ning, improper mounting or demounting, running
flat, off-road use, racing, vandalism, willful dam-
age or abuse.
– Misalignment, wheel imbalance, defective brakes or shock absorber, use of tire chains.
– Any tire which has failed as a result of adding materials (e.g. tire fillers, sealant, or balancing
substances) .
– Mechanical failure or design of vehicle.

ise or agreement on behalf of Hankook Tire except as
stated in this policy.
J. Tires used in racing related activities or competitive events are not covered by this warranty.
K. Limitation of remedy: to the extent permitted by law, HANKOOK disclaims liability for all consequential
and incidental damages. Some provinces and states
do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental
or consequential damages, so the above limitation
or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty
gives you specific legal rights, and you may also
have the rights which vary from province to province
in Canada, and from state to state in the U.S.A.
3. HANKOOK’S OBLIGATIONS
Replacement qualifying under this warranty will be
made by a participating Hankook Dealer or a participat-
ing Car Dealer.

C. No claim will be recognized unless submitted on a Hankook claim form completely filled out and signed
by the owner or a participating Hankook Dealer or
Car Dealer.
WARNING FOR YOUR SAFETY
●TIRE DEMOUNTING AND MOUNTING
Improper tire mounting and inflation procedures may
cause tire beads to break with explosive force during
installation of the tire on the rim, causing personal
injury and property damage. Follow the Rubber
Manufacturers Association installation and safety
procedure for mounting and inflating tires. Tire and
rim must match in size. Rim parts must match by
manufacturer’s design. Clean rim. Lubricate rim and
beads. Do not exceed the maximum recommended
pressure to seat beads on rim. Use remote control
inflation equipment and inflation cage.
NOTE:
Never inflate over 40 psi to seat beads. Mount
radial ply tires only on rims designated by wheel
manufacturer as suitable for radial tire. Only spe-
cially trained persons shall mount tires.
●AIR PRESSURE
Check the pressure in your tires, including your
spare, at least monthly, and always before and during
extended driving. Check tires cold (at least 3 hours
after the vehicle has been stopped and before it is
driven more than 1.6 kilometers or 1 mile) . Do not
reduce pressure when tires are hot, use an accurate
air pressure gauge to check pressure and maintain it
at the level recommended on the vehicle tire placard
or in the Owner’s Manual. Underinflation produces
extreme flexing of sidewalls and builds up heat to the
point that premature tire failure may occur. Overin-
flation can cause the tires to be more susceptible to
impact damage. Cold tire pressures, however,
should never be higher than the limit molded on the
sidewall.
●LOAD LIMITS
Never exceed the load-carrying limits molded onto
the sidewall of your tires or the maximum vehicle load
limit as shown on the vehicle tire placard, whichever
is less. Overloading builds up excessive heat in the
tire and leads to early and/or sudden failure.
●HAZARDS
Avoid running over objects (e.g., chuckholes, rocks,
curbs, metal, glass, etc.) which may possibly cause
internal tire damage. Continued use of a tire that has
suffered internal damage (which may not be exter-
nally visible) can lead to dangerous tire failure. De-
termination of suspected internal damage requires
demounting the tire from its rim and examination by
trained tire personnel.
(Continued on next page)
36 HANKOOK TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

●WORN TIRES
Never drive on worn tires. Tires should be replaced
by trained personnel when 2/32nds inch (1.6mm) of
tread depth remain, as indicated by treadwear indi-
cators molded into the tread grooves. Use of worn-
out tires (less than 2/32nds of an inch remaining
tread depth) increases the probability of tire failure.
In most states, it is illegal to drive with less than
2/32nds of an inch of remaining tread depth.
●SPEED LIMITS
Operating your vehicle in excess of lawful speed
limits or the maximum speeds justified by driving
conditions can be dangerous. Excessive speed cre-
ates heat buildup in a tire, leading to possible tire
failure.
●SPEED-RATED TIRES
Speed-rated tires are identified by letters S, T, H, V,
W, or Z as either part of the size designation (e.g.,
HR) , or part of the service description adjacent to the
size designation (e.g., 94H) and indicates the maxi-
mum speed capability of the tire when properly
loaded and inflated. However, even when properly
loaded and inflated, driving for prolonged periods at
high speeds can cause tire damage and possible tire
failure which could lead to an accident. Original
equipment speed-rated tires must be replaced with
tires of the same or higher speed rating if the speed
capability of the vehicle is to be maintained. Consult
your Hankook dealer for the tires best suited to your
vehicle driving habit. Repairing of speed-rated tires
must be done in accordance with RMA repair pro-
cedures and is limited to one 1/4 diameter repair in
the tread area.
●TIRE ROTATION
Rotate your tires for longer tire life. Front and rear
tires perform different jobs and can wear differently.
Consult your vehicle Owner’s Manual for mileage
recommendations and rotation patterns.
●ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION FOR TEM-
PORARY TIRE
A. Air pressure. Check inflation pressure as soon as practical after
installation and inflate to 60 psi. The tire pressure
should be checked monthly and maintained at
60 psi while the tire is stored or in service.
B. Vehicle restriction. The temporary spare tire was specifically designed
for your car and should not be used on any other
vehicle.
C. Other restrictions. The temporary spare tire should not be used with
other wheels, nor should standard tires, snow tires,
wheel covers, or trim rings be used with the tempo-
rary spare wheel. If such use is attempted, damage
to these items or other vehicle components may
occur.

40 KUMHO TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

WHO IS COVERED
The owner of a Michelin Passenger or Light Truck tire
which bears the Michelin name and complete DOT
identification number.
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG
Michelin Passenger and Light Truck tires, used in nor-
mal service on the vehicle on which they were originally
fitted and in accordance with the maintenance recom-
mendations and safety warnings contained in the Own-
er’s Manual and in the Important Tire Safety Information
Section of this booklet, are covered by this limited
warranty against defects in workmanship and material
for the life of the original usable tread, or 6 years from
the date of purchase, whichever comes first. At that
time, all warranties, express or implied, are terminated.
The usable tread is the original tread down to the level of
the tread wear indicators - 2/32nds of an inch (1.6mm)
of tread remaining. Date of purchase is documented by
new vehicle registration or tire sales invoice. If no proof
of purchase, coverage will be based on date of manu-
facture. Replacement will be made in accordance with
the terms and conditions described underWhat Mi-
chelin Will Do.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED
Tires which become unserviceable due to:Road hazard injury (e.g., a cut, snag, bruise, impact
damage, or puncture, whether repairable or not);
Incorrect mounting of the tire, tire/wheel imbalance,
or improper repair;
Misapplication, underinflation, overinflation, im-
proper maintenance, racing, or other abuse;
Uneven or rapid wear which is caused by mechani-
cal irregularity in the vehicle such as wheel misalign-
ment (a measured tread difference of 2/32nds of an
inch (1.6mm) or more across the tread on the same
tire) resulting in uneven or rapid wear;
Accident, fire, chemical corrosion, tire alteration, or
vandalism;
Ozone or weather cracking;Flat spotting caused by improper storage or brake-
lock;
The adding of liquid, solid or gaseous materials other
than air, nitrogen, or carbon dioxide (e.g. waterbase
sealers or balancing substances) .
WHAT MICHELIN WILL DO
PASSENGER AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
A tire which becomes unserviceable due to a condition
covered by this limited warranty will be replaced with a
comparable new Michelin tire, free of charge, when
2/32nds of an inch (1.6mm) or less of the original tread
is worn, (or 25% or less, whichever is most beneficial to
the user) and within 12 months of the date of purchase.
Mounting and balancing of tires is included. The cost of
any other service charges or applicable taxes are pay-
able by the user. When more than 2/32nds of an inch of original tread
has been worn (or more than 25%, whichever is most
beneficial to the user) or after 12 months from date of
purchase, the user must pay the cost of a comparable
new Michelin passenger or light truck replacement tire
on a pro-rata basis. The dealer shall determine the
charge by multiplying the percentage of the original
usable tread worn by the current actual selling price at
the adjustment location or the price on the current
Michelin Base Price List, whichever is lower. This List is
based on a predetermined price intended to fairly rep-
resent the actual selling price of the tire. The cost of
mounting, balancing and any other service charges or
applicable taxes are payable by the user.
WHAT THE CONSUMER MUST DO
When making a claim under the terms of this limited
warranty, the consumer must present the tire to an
authorized Michelin Dealer. To locate an Authorized Tire
Dealer, check the yellow pages under “Tire Dealers -
Retail.”
The vehicle on which the tire was used should be
available for inspection.
It is essential that you read and understand the safety
and maintenance recommendations (see Safety Main-
tenance Information) for your tires.
(Continued on next page)
MICHELIN TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

(3) Limited warranty duration is the life of the origi-nal usable tread (down to 2/32nds of an inch of
tread remaining) or for 60 months from the date
of purchase (as verified by a copy of the origi-
nal new vehicle purchase invoice) , whichever
comes first. In the event the original new ve-
hicle purchase invoice is unavailable, the DOT
serial number will be used to determine
eligibility.
TEMPORARY SPARE TIRE SAFETY
INFORMATION
The spare tire your car is equipped with may be of a
different size and construction from the other tires on
your vehicle. When using any temporary type spare tire,
be sure to follow the vehicle manufacturer’s instruc-
tions. FAILURE TO OBSERVE RECOMMENDED PRE-
CAUTIONS COULD LEAD TO ERRATIC VEHICLE BE-
HAVIOR AND/OR TIRE DAMAGE POSSIBLY
RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT.
(1) A “T” Type temporary spare tire is designed for temporary use only. It must not be used as a
standard tire continuously. The temporary
spare tire should be returned to the trunk as
soon as it is convenient to have your standard
tire repaired or replaced.
(2) “T” Type temporary spare tires should NOT BE used for speeds exceeding 50 miles per hour.
(3) NEVER use chains on “T” Type temporary spare tires because it could cause damage to
your vehicle. (4) When you replace the temporary spare tire,
replace it only with the same type of tire.
(5) Check inflation pressure before use. Failure to have proper inflation pressure when using your
spare tire can result in serious personal injury
or death. Maintain inflation pressure of 35 psi
for the temporary full size spare and 60 psi for
the “T” Type, high pressure, temporary spare
tire. When inflating or adding air to a “T” Type
temporary spare tire, be very careful since the
smaller tire volume can gain pressure much
more rapidly than a normal full size tire.
(6) Placing (mounting) your temporary use tire on a wheel which is not specifically designed for
use with the temporary use tire or placing an-
other type tire on your temporary use wheel
can be dangerous. Your vehicle’s handling
characteristics can be seriously affected. You
could have an accident resulting in serious
personal injury or death. Consult your vehicle
Owner’s Manual for proper use of your “tem-
porary use” spare tire.
(7) The “T” Type high pressure temporary spare tire should not be used with any other wheel
nor should standard tires, snow tires, wheel
covers or trim rings be used on the high pres-
sure spare tire wheel. (8) Do not operate your vehicle with more than
one temporary spare in use (this does not ap-
ply to a full size spare) and only at limited
speeds and distances as indicated on the
sidewall of the tire.
(9) The “T” Type temporary spare tire may lower ground clearance when used. Avoid driving
over large obstacles and other road hazards.
Check your vehicle Owner’s Manual for other
special clearance precautions when using the
“T” Type temporary spare tire provided in your
vehicle.
(10) Follow the maintenance recommendations and safety warnings contained in the Owner’s
Manual and in the Important Tire Safety Infor-
mation section of this booklet.

TOYO TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY 45

CONSUMER’S OBLIGATION
The consumer is responsible for proper tire care and
maintenance:(1) It is recommended tires be rotated every 3,500 miles or less for high performance (low
profile) tires or every 7,500 miles or less for
standard passenger and light truck tires. More
frequent rotation may be necessary if, upon
inspection, irregular or erratic tread wear is
beginning to appear. As a general rule, front
and rear tire tread depth differential should be
kept to 2/32nds of an inch or less. Keep a
record of the rotation.
(2) The consumer must maintain the recom- mended air pressure in the tires according to
vehicle manufacturer’s recommendation.
Check inflation pressures on all your tires, in-
cluding the spare tire, when tires are cold, at
least once a month before driving. Maintaining
proper inflation pressure is the single most
important thing you can do to ensure optimum
tread life and tire durability. To avoid injury,
NEVER reinflate a tire that has been run se-
verely underinflated.
(3) The consumer must maintain the vehicle’s alignment in accordance with vehicle manu-
facturer’s specifications.
(4) The load capacity of the tires must not be exceeded. (5) The tire’s maximum speed capability must not
be exceeded.
(6) Follow the maintenance recommendations and safety warnings contained in the Owner’s
Manual and in the Important Tire Safety Infor-
mation section of this booklet.
TO MAKE A CLAIM UNDER THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY
In the event that you make a claim under the terms of the
warranty, we ask the consumer to:
(1) Present your tires and your vehicle to an au- thorized Toyo dealer. Call consumer relations
at (800) 442- 8696 (Pacific Time) or (888)
444-8696 (Eastern Time) for assistance locat-
ing the nearest Toyo tire dealer or visit our
web site at www.toyo.com for our dealer
locator.
(2) Complete and sign the Toyo Limited Warranty Claim form provided by the dealer and leave
the tire with the dealer for warranty
processing.
NOTE: Check with your vehicle dealership. They may
also assist you with your tire service requirements or in
obtaining tire warranty service from the tire manufac-
turer.
The consumer is entitled to an adjustment in accor-
dance with the warranty that was in effect when the tire
was installed on the vehicle as original equipment. The
adjustment policy provides for replacement with a com-
parable new Toyo tire if a Toyo tire becomes unservice- able due to an adjustable condition verified by Toyo’s
inspection of the tire. Free replacement or a pro rata
charge depends on the remaining usable tread when
tire is presented for adjustment.
