WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, includ-
ing tire pressure checks. For additional
information, refer to “Changing wheels
and tires” in the “Maintenance and do-it-
yourself” section of this manual. Many fac-
tors including tire inflation, alignment,
driving habits and road conditions affect
tire wear and when tires should be re-
placed. Setting the tire replacement indi-
cator for a certain driving distance doesnot mean your tires will last that long. Use
the tire replacement indicator as a guide
only and always perform regular tire
checks. Failure to perform regular tire
checks, including tire pressure checks
could result in tire failure. Serious vehicle
damage could occur and may lead to a
collision, which could result in serious
personal injury or death.
