TOYO TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY 37

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.

38 TOYO TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

Any tire, no matter how well constructed, may fail due to
improper maintenance or service factors. This could
create a risk of property damage and serious or fatal
injury. Disregarding any of the safety precautions and
instructions contained in this manual may result in tire
failure or explosion causing serious personal injury or
death. For your safety, comply with the following:
TIRE INFLATION
Keep tires inflated to the pressures recommended on
the tire data placard. (See your OWNER’S MANUAL for
location.) These inflation pressures must be maintained
as a minimum. However, do not exceed the maximum
pressure rating indicated on the tire sidewall.
CHECK INFLATION PRESSURES ON ALL YOUR
TIRES, INCLUDING THE SPARE, WHEN TIRES ARE
COLD, AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH BEFORE DRIV-
ING.
Failure to maintain correct inflation may result in im-
proper vehicle handling and may cause rapid and ir-
regular tire wear, sudden tire destruction, loss of vehicle
control and serious personal injury. Therefore, inflation
pressures should be checked at least once a month and
always prior to long distance trips.
Pressures should be checked when tires are cold. The
tires are cold when your vehicle has been driven less
than a mile at moderate speed after being stopped for
three or more hours.
CHECKING PRESSURE WHEN TIRES
ARE HOT
If you must add air when your tires are hot, add four
pounds per square inch (psi) (28kPa) above the recom-
mended cold air pressure. Recheck the inflation pres-
sure when the tire is cold.
For Example Only:
Gauge reading of hot tire: 32psi
If recommended pressure is: 30psi
Desired gauge reading of hot tire 30 + 4psi = 34psi
Check cold pressures as soon as possible, at least by
the next day. Never “bleed” air from hot tires as your tire
will be underinflated. Use an accurate tire gauge to
check pressures. Never allow children to air up tires.
DRIVING ON ANY TIRE THAT DOES NOT HAVE THE
CORRECT INFLATION PRESSURE IS DANGEROUS.
For replacement tires, the correct inflation pressure will
be provided by your tire dealer. If not, refer to the vehicle
decal.
Underinflation produces extreme flexing of the sidewalls
and builds up heat which may result in sudden tire
destruction and serious personal injury. Overinflating
can cause the tire to be more susceptible to impact
damage.
LOAD LIMITS
DO NOT OVERLOAD. DRIVING ON ANY OVER-
LOADED TIRE IS DANGEROUS.Never load your
tires beyond the load carrying limits molded into the
sidewall of the tires or the maximum vehicle load limit as
shown on the vehicle tire data placard, whichever is less. Overloading causes heat to build up which can
lead to sudden tire failure and serious personal injury.
SPEED LIMITS AND SPEED RATED
TIRES
HIGH SPEED DRIVING CAN BE DANGEROUS.
Never operate your vehicle in excess of lawful speeds or
the maximum speeds justified by the driving conditions.
Excessive speeds or racing can cause heat buildup in a
tire leading to possible failure and serious personal
injury.
Correct inflation pressure is especially impor-
tant.
However, at high speeds, even with the correct
inflation pressure, a road hazard, for example, is more
difficult to avoid and if contact is made, there is a greater
chance of causing tire damage than at the lower speed.
Moreover, driving at high speed reduces the reaction
time available to avoid accidents and bring your vehicle
to a safe stop. If you see any damage to a tire or wheel,
replace it with your spare tire and see your tire dealer at
once.
Tire speed ratings do not imply that a vehicle can be
safely driven at the maximum speed for which the tire is
rated. In addition, some damages or improper repairs
may cause a speed-rated tire to lose its speed rating.
Exceeding the tire’s maximum speed rating will cause
the tire to build up excessive heat which can cause tire
damage that could result in sudden tire destruction and
rapid air loss. Failure to control a vehicle with sudden air
loss can lead to an accident. In any case, you should not
exceed reasonable speeds as indicated by the legal
limits and driving conditions.

IMPORTANT TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION141

SPEED SYMBOLS -are shown on the sidewall of
some tires. The following table shows the maximum
speed corresponding to the symbol.
SPEED RATINGS †Speed Speed
Maximum Rating mph km/Hr
M 81 130
N 87 140
P 93 150
R 99 160
R 106 170
S 112 180
T 118 190
H 130 210
W 168 270
Y 186 300
V* 149 240
Z** 149 240
*Some V (or VR) rated tires may have a speed
capacity of greater than 149 mph (240 km/h) .
Consult your tire manufacturer for maximum speed rat-
ings if your vehicle capability exceeds this speed.
**Z (or ZR) rated tires are designed for use on
cars with maximum speed capabilities in excess
of 149 mph (240 km/h) . Consult your tire manufac-
turer for maximum speed capabilities.
†Although a tire may be speed rated, we do not endorse
the operation of any vehicle in an unsafe or unlawful
manner. Speed ratings are based on laboratory tests which relate to performance on the road, but are not
applicable if tires are underinflated, overloaded, worn
out, damaged, altered, improperly repaired, or re-
treaded. Furthermore, tire speed ratings do not imply
that vehicles can be safely driven at the maximum speed
for which the tire is rated, particularly under adverse
road and weather conditions or if the vehicle has un-
usual characteristics. Most highway passenger tires
that do not have a speed symbol in the sidewall have a
maximum speed rating of 105 mph. Light truck highway
tires that do not have a speed symbol on the sidewall of
the tire have a maximum speed of 87 mph. Some light
truck tires may have higher maximum speeds; consult
your tire dealer. The speed and other ratings of re-
treaded tires are assigned by the retreader and voids
the original manufacturer’s ratings.
IMPORTANT:
In order to maintain the speed capability
of the vehicle, replacement tires must have speed rat-
ings equal to or higher than those fitted as original
equipment (as indicated on the vehicle placard or
OWNER’S MANUAL) . If tires with lower speed ratings
are fitted, the speed capability of the vehicle will be
lowered to the maximum speed capability of the re-
placement tire as indicated on the above table.
Remember...High speed driving can be dangerous and
may be damaging to your tires.
And...When driving at highway speeds, correct inflation
pressure is especially important.
Contact the manufacturer of your tires for their position
and assistance on the repair of speed-rated tires. When
you are replacing tires that have a speed rating, you must replace with tires of the same or higher speed
rating if the speed capability of the vehicle is to be
maintained.
VISUAL INSPECTION
INSPECT YOUR TIRES. DO NOT DRIVE ON A
DAMAGED TIRE OR WHEEL.
Check your tires fre-
quently for scrapes, bulges, separations, cuts, snags,
cracks, penetrations or excessive localized wear from
hard braking. Also check for abnormal tire wear, particu-
larly on the edges of the tire tread which may be caused
by misalignment or underinflation. Impacts can damage
the inner portion of the tire without being visible on the
outside. If damage can be seen on the tires or wheels, or
if you suspect that possible impact damage may have
occurred, replace with spare at once and have your tire
store or dealer inspect your tires immediately. Use of a
damaged tire could result in tire destruction. When
inspecting your tires, including the spare, check your air
pressures. If your pressure check indicates that one of
your tires has lost pressure of two pounds or more, look
for signs of penetrations, valve leakage, or wheel dam-
age that may account for the air loss.
All tires will wear out faster when subjected to high
speeds as well as hard cornering, rapid starts, sudden
stops, frequent driving on roads which are in poor
condition, and off-road use. Roads with holes and rocks
or other objects can damage tires and cause misalign-
ment of your vehicle. When you drive on such roads,
drive on them carefully and slowly, and before driving
again at normal or highway speeds, examine your tires
for any damage, such as cuts, bulges, penetrations,
unusual wear patterns, etc.

42 IMPORTANT TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION1

TREAD WEAR INDICATORS (WEAR BARS):Tires
contain Tread Wear Indicators (Wear Bars) in the
grooves of the tire tread which show up when only
2/32nds of an inch (1.6mm) of tread is remaining.
At this stage, your tires must be replaced. Tires
worn beyond this stage are dangerous.
* Provided by and published at the request of the tire
manufacturers/warrantors.
HAZARDS
Objects in the road that threaten a tire should be safely
avoided. These objects are potholes, glass, metal,
rocks, wood debris and the like. Unavoidable contact
should prompt a thorough tire inspection.
You may not always recall hitting an object that can
damage or injure your tires. If while driving your vehicle
experiences any unusual vibrations, ride disturbance or
noise and/or you suspect that possible damage to the
tires or vehicle has occurred, DO NOT JAM OR LOCK
YOUR BRAKES! Rather reduce your speed and drive
with caution until you can safely pull off the road. Stop
and inspect the tires. If the tire is underinflated or
damaged, deflate, remove the tire and rim assembly and
replace it with your spare. If you cannot detect a cause,
have the vehicle towed to the nearest vehicle or tire
dealer to have the vehicle inspected.
REPAIRING, MOUNTING AND
DEMOUNTING OF TIRES
Do not attempt to repair, mount or demount a tire
yourself. Tire changing can be dangerous and must be
done by professionally trained persons using proper
tools and procedures as specified by the Rubber Manu-
facturers Association (RMA) . Follow these mounting
recommendations. Your tires should be mounted on
wheels of correct size and type and which are in good,
clean condition. Bent, chipped or rusted wheels may
cause tire damage. The inside of the tire must be free
from foreign materials. Have your dealer check the
wheels before mounting new tires. Mismatched tires
and rims can explode during mounting. Also, mis-
matched tires and rims can result in dangerous tire
failure on the road. If a tire is mounted by error on the
wrong-sized rim, do not remount it on the proper rim -
scrap it. It may be damaged internally (which is not
externally visible) by being dangerously stretched and
could fail on the highway.
Old valves may leak. When new tubeless tires are
mounted, have new valves of the correct type installed.
Tubeless tires must be mounted only on wheels de-
signed for tubeless tires, i.e., wheels which have safety
humps or ledges.
Never perform a temporary repair, use an innertube or
inject sealant as a permanent substitute for a proper
repair. Only qualified persons should repair tires.
Be sure that all your valves have suitable valve caps.
This will keep valve cores clean and clear and guard
against leakage. REPAIRS - WHENEVER POSSIBLE, SEE A TIRE
DEALER AT ONCE.
Some tire manufacturers do not
warrant any inspection or repair process. The repair is
entirely the responsibility of the repairer. Punctures in
the tread of a passenger tire which do not exceed 1/4 of
an inch (6mm) in diameter can usually be repaired by
following the Rubber Manufacturer’s Association
(RMA) Passenger and Light Truck Repair procedures.
Contact the manufacturer of your tires for its position
and assistance as to the acceptable location for a
proper repair and the repair of speed rated tires. Do not
use plug repairs. They may cause further damage
to the tire. They are not always air tight and the
plug may fail. Do not exceed posted speed limits on
any repaired tire. Certain tire manufacturers speed rat-
ings are voided if the tire is repaired.
Although a tire was properly repaired, internal structural
damage resulting from the puncture may have occurred.
Sometime later the damage may cause the tire to be
removed from service.
If the tire has a puncture in the tread which exceeds 1/4
inch (6mm) , the tire must be replaced. If any tire has
sustained a puncture, have the tire inspected internally by
a tire dealer for possible damage that may have occurred.
Improper mounting and inflation procedures can cause
an explosion of the tire/rim assembly. Only specially
trained persons should perform these tasks. Contact
your tire store or dealer for assistance.
CAUTION - Never, under any circumstance, in-
troduce a flammable substance into a tire.

IMPORTANT TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION143

WHAT IS COVERED?
Nissan2warrants your Genuine Nissan Replacement
Battery as described below except as stated under
What is not covered?
This warranty covers defects in materials and workman-
ship.
HOW LONG IS THE WARRANTY AND
WHAT WILL NISSAN DO
If your battery becomes unserviceable within the first 24
months of service Nissan will replace your battery, in-
cluding labor, without charge, providing the battery was
originally installed in your vehicle by an authorized
Nissan dealer.
If the battery becomes unserviceable after 24 months of
use, Nissan will provide a replacement battery at a
reduced price, charging only for the portion of the life of
the battery actually used. This is called a pro-rata
adjustment. You will be responsible for all labor
charges for the replacement of the battery.
This warranty and the pro-rata adjustmentend 84
months after the date of the battery’s purchase or
installation, whichever is earlier. However, the warranty
on a Genuine Nissan replacement battery installed dur-
ing the Nissan New Vehicle Limited Warranty will extend
through, and will not end before, the end of that original
warranty.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED?
This warranty does not cover:
1. Damage or failure resulting from:
Accident, theft, fire or freezing.Misuse of the battery or vehicle in which it is
installed, including the use in applications for
which the battery was not designed. Proper use is
described in the vehicles OWNER’S MANUAL.
Improper installation or battery charging.Vehicle electrical malfunctions not covered by
your New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Modification or improper repair of the vehicle or a
part of the vehicle.
Use of parts not equivalent in quality or design to
parts supplied by Nissan.
Environmental conditions, including, but not lim-
ited to flood, and salt spray or salt water.
2. Normal maintenance service and recharging of dis- charged batteries.
3. Batteries in service more than 84 months.
4.
Salvage Title. This warranty does not cover damage,
failure, or corrosion to any Genuine Nissan battery
installed in the vehicle, if the vehicle is issued a
salvage or similar title under any state’s law, and
this warranty is rendered void for any battery installed
in a vehicle prior to the vehicle being issued a sal-
vage or similar title unless state law expressly states
otherwise. (This exclusion does not extend to a new Genuine Nissan battery installed in the vehicle after
the issuance of a
salvageor similar title) .
WHAT YOU MUST DO
In order to obtain warranty service, you must deliver the
warranted battery or the vehicle in which the battery is
installed to an authorized Nissan dealer in the U.S. or
Canada at your expense, with proof of purchase (parts
invoice or service repair order from an authorized
Nissan dealer) . The names and addresses of authorized
Nissan dealers are listed in telephone directories or
www.NissanUSA.com
If thepro-rata adjustment applies, you must pay for the
portion of the 84 month warrantable life that you actually
used. The amount you pay is computed in two steps.
First, the customer pay percentage is determined from
the chart shown below based upon the months of actual
battery service.
Months Customer Pay
In ServicePercentage0-24 0%
25-32 25%
33-50 50%
51-84 75%
Second, the current suggested retail price of the new
battery is multiplied by the customer pay percentage.
For example, should the battery fail after 40 months of
service you would pay 50% of the suggested retail price
of the new battery.
(Continued on next page)1 Actual warranty is provided by the dealer at time of purchase and should be read carefully. This warranty is subject to change and the applicable warranty will be that which is in effect on
the date of purchase.
