terminals on the back
surface of the circuit
board.

indicated in the Service Maintenance Guide that
comes with your vehicle) will help your tires wear
more evenly providing better tire performance and
longer tire life. Unless otherwise specified, rotate the
tires approximately every 8,000 km (5,000 miles).
