3. HOW A PRO RATA PRICE IS CALCULATED
The replacement tire price will be determined by multiply-
ing the percentage of the usable tread worn by the Retail-
er’s Selling Price (excluding all applicable taxes) at the time
of the adjustment or the Continental/General brand current
published Adjustment Base Price, whichever is lower. The
usable tread is the original tread down to the tread wear
indicators (2/32nds of an inch of tread remaining). The
Adjustment Base Price is intended to fairly represent a
Retailer’s Selling Price for the same or comparable tire.

TRAILER TOWING
If you anticipate towing a trailer, you should see a tire
retailer for advice concerning the correct size of tire and
pressure. Tire size and pressure will depend on the type
and size of the trailer and hitch utilized, but in no case
must the maximum cold inflation pressure or the tire
load rating be exceeded. Check the tire decal and your
Owner’s Manual for further recommendations on trailer
towing.
TIRE ALTERATIONS
Do not perform any alterations on your tires. Alterations
may prevent proper performance, leading to tire dam-
age, which can result in an accident. Tires which be-
come unserviceable due to alterations such as truing,
whitewall inlays, addition of balancing or sealant liq-
uids, may be excluded from warranty coverage. Consult
your tire warranty.
HIGH PRESSURE TEMPORARY SPARE TIRES
1) The high-pressure spare tire in your Infiniti ve-
hicle is designed for temporary use only and
must not be used continually as a regular tire.
The standard tire should be repaired and/or
replaced as soon as possible.
2) Avoid driving over obstacles that may damage
the tire through impact or cutting, such as
potholes, glass,metal, etc.
3) Speed must not exceed 50MPH (80km/h) for
non-speed-rated temporary spare tires.4) Temporary spare tires have a limited treadlife
which can vary depending on road conditions
and your driving habits. The spare tire should
be returned to the trunk as soon as the stan-
dard tire can be repaired or replaced.
5) Because the high-pressure spare tire was spe-
cifically designed for your car, it should not be
used on any other vehicle.
6) Do not use snow chains on your high-pressure
spare. This could cause damage to your
vehicle.
7) Check the tire’s cold inflation pressure monthly
and maintain at 60psi (4.2kg/cm2) even when
not in use.
8) The high-pressure spare tire should not be
used with any other rim nor should standard
tires, wheel covers, or trim rings be used on the
high-pressure spare tire rim which was origi-
nally installed.
9) When the tread wear indicator appears on the
tire, replace it only with the same type spare
tire.
10) Do not enter an automatic carwash with a tem-
porary spare tire fitted.
11) Do not make a sharp turn or apply the brakes
suddenly when driving on a high-pressure tem-
porary spare.
Note:When using any temporary type spare
tire, be sure to follow the vehicle Own-
er’s Manual instructions.
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 tothese 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 retailer or your
Infiniti retailer .
