Tires with unidirectional tread design
Tires with unidirectional tread design must be
mounted with their tread pattern pointed in the
right direction.
Using a spare tire with a tread pattern
intended for use in a specific direction
When using a spare tire with a tread pattern in ­
tended for use in a specific direction, please note
the following:
- The direction of rotation is marked by an
arrow
on the side of the tire.
-If the spare tire has to be installed in the incor­
rect direction, use the spare tire only tempora­
rily since the tire w ill not be ab le to achieve its
opt imum performance character istics with re­
gard to aquaplaning, noise and wear.
- We recommend that you pay particular atten­
t ion to this fact during wet weather and that
you adjust your speed to match road condi­
t ions.
- Replace the f lat t ire with a new one and have it
installed on your vehicle as soon as possible to
restore the hand ling advantages of a unidirec­
t iona l tire.
