2014 NISSAN LEAF maintenance

You pay the cost of mounting, balancing and any
other service charges and applicable taxes.
Treadwear
A tire meeting the conditions forpro ratareplacement,
which wears evenly across the tread, down to the tread
wear indicators (2/32nds of an inch tread remaining)
within 6 years of the date of purchase, and before
delivering the warranted miles of service, will be re-
placed with a comparable new MICHELIN® tire based
on mileage received. The participating MICHELIN® tire
retailer will determine the charge by multiplying the
percent of mileage received by the current actual selling
price at the adjustment location or the price of the tire in
the current Michelin Base Price List, whichever is lower.
This list is based on a predetermined price intended to
fairly represent the actual selling price of the tire.Yo u
pay the cost of mounting, balancing and any
other dealer services and applicable taxes.
Tires which wear out evenly before delivering the war-
ranted mileage will be replaced on a pro ratabasis only if:
1You are the original purchaser of the tires, you own
the vehicle on which they were originally installed,
and the tires have been used only on that vehicle;
2The tires have been rotated and inspected by a
participating MICHELIN® tire retailer every
7,500 miles, and the attached Mounting and Rota-
tion Service Record has been fully completed and
signed;
3The completed Service Record form, Original
Owner/Tire Installation Information form, and the
Original Invoice are presented to a participating
Michelin tire retailer at the time of adjustment claim;
and
4The tires have not become unserviceable due to a
condition listed under WHAT IS NOT COVERED.
WHAT YOU MUST DO WHEN MAKING
A CLAIM
When making a claim under the terms of this limited
warranty, you must present your tire(s) to a participating
Michelin retailer. The vehicle on which the tires were
used must be available for inspection.
Michelin tire retailers are listed in the yellow pages
under “Tire Dealers-Retail”. Personal identification (i.e.
Driver’s License, Credit Card, etc.) and vehicle registra-
tion may be required.
You pay service charges for normal vehicle and
tire maintenance.
CONDITIONS AND EXCLUSIONS
This limited warranty does not provide compensation for
loss of time, loss of use of vehicle, inconvenience or
incidental or consequential damages.
Tires presented for claim remain the property of the
consumer and Michelin accepts no responsibility for
loss or damage to tires which are in the custody or
control of a Michelin tire retailer for the purpose of
inspection for warranty adjustment.
In the event of a disputed claim, the consumer
must make the tire available for further inspection.
Tires accepted for claim become the property of Mi-
chelin North America, Inc. No Michelin representative, employee or retailer has the
authority to make or imply any representation, promise
or agreement, which in any way varies from the terms of
this warranty.
This warranty applies only in the United States and
Canada.

sidewall of your tires, your vehicle owner’s manual and
vehicle tire information placard for essential safety and
maintenance information.

WARNING
SAFETY WARNING
DISREGARDING ANY OF THE SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS
CONTAINED IN THIS MANUAL MAY RE-
SULT IN TIRE FAILURE OR EXPLOSION
CAUSING SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
(Continued on next page)
MICHELIN TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY 17

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) (28 kPa) above the rec-
ommended cold air pressure. Recheck the inflation
pressure when the tire is cold.
For Example Only:
Gauge reading of hot tire: 32 psi
If recommended pressure is: 30 psi
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 de-
struction 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.
