ABOUT THIS WARRANTY
As the original purchaser of a MICHELIN® passenger
or light truck tire, you are covered by all the benefits and
conditions (subject to the maintenance recommenda-
tions and safety warnings) contained in this booklet. To
ensure your understanding of and compliance with the
terms and conditions of this warranty, please read it
carefully. It is essential that you also read and under-
stand the safety and maintenance recommendations for
tires contained in this booklet.
Limited Mileage Warranty:
MICHELIN passenger and light truck tires – replace-
ment and original equipment – are covered by a limited
mileage warranty (hereafter referred to as limited war-
ranty for treadwear) . For the mileage warranty associ-
ated with each tire line, please see your Michelin tire
retailer – or visit us at www.michelinman.com/promise.
Certain conditions and limitations apply. Mileage war-
ranties vary by tire line and certain exclusions may
apply.
SELF-SUPPORTING TIRES
Zero Pressure (ZP)
As the purchaser of a MICHELIN® Self-Supporting
Zero Pressure (ZP) passenger tire, mounted on a ve-
hicle approved for ZP tires, equipped with a properly
operating low tire pressure warning system, you are
covered by this warranty. Please pay close attention to
the Owner’s Manual part of this booklet since it provides
specific safety and maintenance information for your ZP
tires.
MICHELIN® Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires
are part of a very sophisticated system which is de-signed to provide a very simple benefit: Peace of Mind.
With these tires, you can maneuver the vehicle up to
50 miles (80 kilometers) at 55 mph (90 kph) , unless
otherwise specified in your vehicle owner’s manual,
even though the tire has lost all air! That means time to
exit from the highway and get to a place where the tire
can be inspected, replaced, or possibly returned to
service. The distance that can safely be travelled follow-
ing an air loss incident will depend upon the conditions
under which the vehicle is operating, the degree of air
loss, the extent of the damage causing the air loss, the
ambient temperature,the load, and the operating speed
of the vehicle. The fewer miles you travel after an air loss
incident, the greater the likelihood that the tire can be
re-inflated (or, if punctured, repaired) and returned to
service.
Pax System
The MICHELIN® PAX® System is a very sophisticated
system that includes the tire, support ring and gel,
pressure sensing device, and wheel. In the event of a
loss of tire air pressure, with this system you can still
carefully maneuver the vehicle at speeds up to 55 miles
per hour, for a distance of up to 125 miles, even though
a tire has lost all air! That means time to get off the
highway and get to a place where the tire can be
inspected, replaced, or possibly repaired and returned
to service. That’s peace of mind!
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW
LONG
Passenger and Light Truck Tires
MICHELIN® Passenger and Light Truck tires, used in
normal service on the vehicle on which they were origi-nally fitted and in accordance with the maintenance
recommendations and safety warnings contained in the
attached owner’s manual, are covered by this warranty
against defects in workmanship and materials for the life
of the original usable tread, or 6 years from the date of
purchase, whichever occurs first. At that time, all war-
ranties, express or implied, expire. The usable tread is
the original tread down to the level of the tread wear
indicators - 2/32nds of an inch (1.6 mm) of tread
remaining. Date of purchase is documented by new
vehicle registration or tire sales invoice. If no proof of
purchase is available, coverage will be based on the
date of manufacture.
Replacement will be made in accordance with the terms
and conditions described under “How Replacement
Charges are Calculated”.
Note: your vehicle manufacturer may provide additional
tire warranty coverage over and above what is provided
by Michelin. Consult your vehicle owner’s manual for
further information.
NOTE: Some MICHELIN® Self-Supporting Zero Pres-
sure (ZP) tires can only be mounted on special SH-M
(Symmetric Hump - Modified) wheels. These tires bear
the special SH-M designation, molded into the sidewall
of the tire, next to the ZP designation. DO NOT MOUNT
A TIRE WITH THE SH-M DESIGNATION ON THE
SIDEWALL ON A STANDARD WHEEL. DOING SO
VOIDS THIS LIMITED WARRANTY AND COULD
CAUSE THE TIRE TO BECOME UNSERVICEABLE AT
LOW OR ZERO PRESSURE, RESULTING IN SERI-
OUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

Treadwear – Mileage Warranty Coverage for MI-
CHELIN® Passenger and Light Truck Tires
MICHELIN® passenger and light truck tires are cov-
ered by a manufacturer’s limited warranty for treadwear.
For the mileage warranty associated with a specific tire
line, please see your Michelin tire retailer or visit us at
www.michelinman.com/promise. Some vehicles come
from the vehicle manufacturer with “split fitments” –
meaning different size tires on the front and rear axles.
Because these tires cannot be rotated as recom-
mended by Michelin, the mileage warranty on each rear
tire will cover half the number of miles as the standard
mileage warranty for that particular tire design. Michelin
Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires have the same
mileage warranty as the standard tire line of which they
are a part, up to but not exceeding 30,000 miles.
DOT-approved competition tires (e.g., MICHELIN® Pi-
lot® Sport Cup tires) are excluded from any mileage
warranty. MICHELIN® Winter tires must be used during
winter months only, defined as a period beginning on or
after September 1st of a given year and ending no later
than April 30th of the following year. MICHELIN winter
tires require documentation of the timing of the installa-
tion and removal of the tires each winter to maintain
coverage under the limited warranty for treadwear.
An important reminder:
No tire manufacturer can guarantee you a certain num-
ber of miles from a given tire. Driving habits, driving
conditions, road conditions, and vehicle maintenance all
play a part in the tread life of a tire. If a tire does not reach
the warranted mileage, and the owner of the tires has
complied with the terms and conditions of the warranty,
Michelin will replace the tires as described under “How
Replacement Charges are calculated”.Temporary Spares
MICHELIN® temporary spare tires are covered by this
warranty for 6 years from the date of purchase or until
the first 2/32nds of an inch (1.6 mm) of the original tread
is worn off. Date of purchase is documented by new
vehicle registration or tire sales invoice. If no proof of
purchase is available, coverage will be based on date of
manufacture. At that time, all warranties, express or
implied, expire.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED
Tires which become unserviceable due to:Road hazard injury (e.g., a cut, snag, bruise, impact
damage, or puncture);
Incorrect mounting of the tire, tire/wheel imbalance,
or improper repair;
Misapplication, improper maintenance, racing, un-
derinflation, overinflation or other abuse;
Uneven or rapid wear which is caused by mechani-
cal irregularity in the vehicle such as wheel misalign-
ment (a measured tread difference of 2/32nds of an
inch (1.6 mm) or more across the tread on the same
tire);
Accident, fire, chemical corrosion, tire alteration, or
vandalism;
Use in commercial applications for treadwear; by
this warranty for 6 years;
Flat spotting caused by improper storage or brake-
lock;
The addition of liquid, solid or gaseous materials
other than air, nitrogen, or carbon dioxide (e.g. wa-
terbase sealers or balancing substances) .
Cosmetic ozone or weather cracking;
Use of MICHELIN Self-Supporting Zero Pressure
(AP) tires without a properly operating low air pres-
sure warning system.
HOW REPLACEMENT CHARGES ARE
CALCULATED
Passenger and Light Truck Tires
A tire which becomes unserviceable due to a condition
covered by this workmanship and materials limited war-
ranty will be replaced with a comparable new MI-
CHELIN® tire, free of charge, when 2/32nds of an inch
(1.6 mm) or less of the original tread is worn, (or 25% or
less, whichever is more beneficial to the user) and within
12 months of the date of purchase. Mounting and
balancing of the tire is included.
You pay the cost of any other service charges and
applicable taxes.
When more than 2/32nds of an inch (1.6 mm) of original
tread has been worn (or more than 25%, whichever is
more beneficial to the user) or after 12 months from the
date of purchase, you must pay the cost of a compa-
rable new MICHELIN® passenger or light truck re-
placement tire on a pro rata basis. The retailer will
determine the charge by multiplying the percentage of
the original usable tread worn, by the current selling
price at the adjustment location or the price in the
current MICHELIN® Base Price List, whichever is
lower. This list is based on a predetermined price in-
tended to fairly represent the actual selling price of the
tire.

16 MICHELIN TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

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

20 ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT TIRE LIMITED WARRANTIES

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.

IMPORTANT TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION121

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 Manufactur-
ers Association (RMA) . Follow these mounting rec-
ommendations. 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, mismatched 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 re-
mount it on the proper rim - scrap it. It may be damaged
internally (which is not externally visible) by being danger-
ously 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 (6 mm) 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 (6 mm) , 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, intro-
duce a flammable substance into a tire.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCING
Wheel alignment and balancing are important for safety
and maximum mileage from your tires. Check how your
tires are wearing at least once a month. If your tires are
wearing unevenly, such as the inside shoulder of the tire
wearing faster than the rest of the tread, or if you detect
excessive vibration, your vehicle may be out of align-
ment or balance. These conditions not only shorten the

IMPORTANT TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION123

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 liquids,
may be excluded from warranty coverage. Consult your
tire warranty.
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 to these 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 dealer or
your Nissan dealership.
