WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, includ-
ing tire pressure checks. See “Changing

It-Yourself” section. Many factors includ-
ing tire inflation, alignment, driving habits

when tires should be replaced. Setting the

ment indicator as a guide only and always

ure. Serious vehicle damage could occur
