OWNER’S OBLIGATIONS
At least monthly, the vehicle owner(s) should check the
tires’ air pressure with a gauge and inflate to the recom-
mended cold air pressure level listed on the driver’s
door placard. Do not rely on car servicers to perform the
checks. The tires should be rotated at least every
8,000km (5,000 miles) or earlier if uneven wear is
occurring, and proof of maintenance records should be
kept. The owner(s) should have the tires rebalanced if
vibration is experienced, and the vehicle’s alignment
should be checked if uneven or rapid wear is occurring,
or when suggested by the vehicle’s manufacturer.
All warranty claims must be presented to an authorized
Falken dealer or participating car dealership. The own-
er(s) must present any supporting maintenance records
and documentation necessary to help determine if the
tire(s) in question are deemed covered by the limited
warranty or not.
LEGAL RIGHTS
All implied warranties, including warranties of mer-
chantability and fitness for a particular purpose shall be
limited in duration to the above period. To the extent
permitted by law, Falken Tire Corporation shall not be
responsible for incidental or consequential damages,
such as loss of use of the tire or the vehicle on which it
is used, inconvenience, or commercial loss, some states
do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty
lasts, or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or con-
sequential damages, so the above limitations or exclu-sions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you
specific legal rights and you may also have other rights,
which vary from state to state. This is the only express
warranty applicable to Falken brand tires and super-
sedes the terms of any previous warranty. Falken neither
assumes nor authorizes anyone to make or assume for it
any other warranty.
TIRE CARE AND RECOMMENDATIONS
PROPER INFLATION and FUEL ECONOMY*
Ensure maximum performance and a long life from your
tires by checking the air pressures at least once a month
and set them to the vehicle manufacturer’s recom-
mended pressure(s) listed on the vehicle’s tire placard
or in your owner’s manual. Always check and adjust your
air pressure when your tires are cold, preferably first
thing in the morning before driving. Never release air
pressure from tires when they are hot. Wait until the tires
cool down and recheck, adding air or releasing as
required. Falken endorses the use of nitrogen in your
tires because it helps your tires maintain optimal pres-
sure for longer periods of time and reduces the amount
of moisture inside of the tire and wheel assembly.
TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE
Tires need to be properly inflated to effectively operate
and perform as intended. Tires carry the weight of the
vehicle, passengers, and cargo as well as bear the
forces of braking, accelerating, and turning. The vehicle
manufacturer sets the inflation pressures for the original
equipment tires that are on your vehicle.Driving with improperly inflated tires is dangerous. An
under inflated tire will generate excessive heat build-up
that will cause damage to the internal structure and
inner liner of the tire. Besides tire damage, improper tire
inflation pressures can also affect your vehicle’s ride
and handling, tire tread wear, and fuel economy. It is
recommended to always keep all of your tires, including
the spare, at the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended
inflation pressures and be sure to check the air pressure
monthly and before going on long road trips or carrying
extra weight in your vehicle.
Your vehicle’s tire placard and/or owner’s manual will
list the cold inflation pressure(s) for your vehicle’s origi-
nal equipment tires, including the spare. The placard
can be found on the driver’s side door or door jamb area.
If you have questions about understanding your vehi-
cle’s tire placard, please refer to your owner’s manual or
ask a qualified tire service professional.

CHECKING YOUR TIRE’S AIR PRESSURE
Checking your air pressure at least once a month is vital
to help your tires perform properly and help you get the
best gas mileage possible. Tires can lose up to 7 kPa
(1 psi) per month under normal conditions and lose up
to 7 kPa (1 psi) per every 9°C (16°F) drop in tempera-
ture. Here are some simple steps on how to check the
air pressures in your tires: 1. Remove the valve stem cap.

* Some plus size applications may require different air pressure(s) than what is listed on your vehicle’s placard or owner’s manual. In this case, please consult your tire dealer or Falken Tire for proper inflation pressure(s) .

break, bulge, puncture, improper use of tire
chains, stone drill, chip, scale) . These types of
damages or air loss always require tire re-
moval and inspection by a qualified tire
professional.
(3) Irregular tread wear or rapid tread wear due to failure to rotate the tires at recommended in-
tervals or from vehicle misalignment.
(4) Damage resulting from improper repair materi- als or procedures such as rope type plugs.
Toyo does not warrant any inspection or repair
process. The repair is entirely the responsibil-
ity of the repairer and should be made in ac-
cordance with procedures as specified by the
Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) .
(5) Damage from incorrect mounting or dismount- ing of the tire, incorrect wheel size, water or
other material trapped inside the tire during
mounting or failure to balance the tires. (6) Damage or uneven tread wear from incorrect
inflation, overloading, fire, theft, defective me-
chanical conditions such as brakes, shocks,
rims, wreck or collision, misuse,
misapplication, negligence, willful damage or
abuse, vandalism, tire alteration, tire spinning,
racing or competition purposes.
(7) Damage, corrosion or rubber deterioration due to the use of oil-based chemicals, water-
based sealers, balancing substances, or flam-
mable gases.
(8) Uniformity problems such as ride, balance and vibration complaints after the first 25% of
tread wear.
(9) Replacement of four (4) or more tires from the same vehicle will not be accepted for ride dis-
turbance complaints i.e. vibration, out of
round, out of balance, pulling, noise, due to
the unlikely event of multiple tires with unifor-
mity problems.
(10) Claims for weather/ozone cracking after 5 years from the date of manufacture.
(11) Any tire which has been run with low air pres- sure or while flat.
(12) Tires used in commercial service.
(13) Tires on vehicles regularly operated outside the United States.
(14) Claims made by anyone other than the original retail purchaser of the vehicle. (15) Tires with the D.O.T. identification number re-
moved or rendered illegible.
(16) Any tire not presented and available for Toyo’s inspection.
(17) Any tire for which mileage and tire rotation records are not available or verifiable.
(18) Any tires worn beyond the wear bars (less than 2/32nds of an inch of tread remaining) .
(19) Tires not supplied as original equipment on new vehicles (refer to Owner’s Manual for
coverage) .
(20) “T” Type temporary spare tires used at speeds over 50 miles per hour, exhibiting such
damage.
(21) Dealer service charges are not covered for routine or required maintenance of the tires
such as alignments, rotation or balancing.
(22) The cost of applicable federal, state and local taxes and fees.
(23) Retreaded passenger and light truck tires are not warranted.

TIRE STORAGE
All tires should be stored in a cool dry place indoors so
that there is no danger of water collecting inside them.
When tires are stored they should be stored in a cool
place away from sources of heat and ozone such as 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.)
To Avoid Damage to your Tires and Possible
Accident:
●Check tire pressure at least once a month when
tires are cold and before long trips.
● Do not underinflate/overinflate.
● Do not overload.
● Drive at moderate speeds, observe legal limits.
● Avoid driving over potholes, obstacles, curbs or
edges of pavement.
● Avoid excessive wheel spinning.
● If you see any damage to a tire, replace with
spare and see the tire manufacturer’s dealer or
your Nissan dealership.
