Safety first
(I] Tips
• Whe n mounting tires with unidirection al tread de sign make sure
the tread pattern is pointed the rig ht way~
page 321.
• T he wheel bolts should be clea n and easy to turn. Check for dirt
and corrosion on the mating surfaces of both the whee l and the hub .
Remove all d irt from these surfaces before remounting the whee l.
• Do not use the hexagonal socket in the screwdriver hand le to
loose n or tig hten the wheel bolts .•
Tires with unidirectional tread design
Tires with unidirectional tread design mus t be mounte d
with their tread pattern pointed in the right direc tio n .
Using a spare tire with a tread pattern intended for
use in a specific direction
Whe n using a spare tire with a tread patte rn intended fo r use in a
specific direction, p lease note the fo llow ing:
• T he direction of ro ta t ion is ma rked by an
arrow on th e side of the
t ir e.
• If the spare tire has to be installed in the incorrect d irect ion, use
the spare t ire only temporar ily since the tire w ill not be ab le to
achieve its optimum pe rformance characterist ics with rega rd to
aquaplaning, noise and wear.
• We recommend tha t you pay particular attent ion to th is fact
dur ing wet weather and that you adjust your speed to match road
condi tions.
• Replace the flat ti re with a new one and have it installed on your
veh icle as soon as possible to restore the handling adva ntages of a
unidirect ional tire. •
