LIMITED WARRANTY
FOR ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT PASSENGER & LIGHT
TRUCK TIRES INCLUDING TEMPORARY TIRES
1. WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW
LONG.
Kumho warrants that a tire manufactured by Kumho
and/or equipped originally on the vehicle is free from
defects in materials and/or workmanship in normal use
for the life of the original usable tread. The life of the
original usable tread ends when the tire tread has been
worn down with only 1.6mm (2/32nds inch) remaining,
at which point the tire is considered to be fully worn out.
●PASSENGER AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
(A) Free replacement If Kumho Radial Passenger & Light Truck
Tires fail as a result of defect in material
and/or workmanship within the first 2/32” of
the original tread depth, the tire will be re-
placed with a new, comparable Kumho Tire
at no charge including mounting and balanc-
ing charges. ●
PASSENGER AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
(B) Pro-rata replacement Tires not qualifying for free replacement will
be allowed a credit toward purchase of a
new, comparable Kumho Tire based upon
the amount of tread actually worn. The cost
of mounting, balancing and any other service
charges or applicable taxes shall be paid by
the user.
Otherwise adjustment for compensation will
be made on a pro-rata basis calculated by
multiplying the actual current dealer selling
price by the percentage of remaining usable
tread depth.
● KUMHO TEMPORARY TIRE
(A) A Temporary Tire weighs less and provides
more trunk storage space than a conven-
tional tire. To conserve tire tread life, tempo-
rary tire should be returned to the trunk as
soon as it is convenient to have your stan-
dard tire repaired or replaced.
(B) If Kumho Temporary Tire fails as a result of
defect in materials and workmanship during
the first 50% of usable treadwear, the tire
will be replaced with a new, comparable tire
at no charge including mounting and balanc-
ing charges. No adjustment will be made for
tires that are worn more than 50%.
2. WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THE
WARRANTY
●NON-ADJUSTABLE CONDITIONS
A. Irregular wear or tire damage due to: – Road hazards such as punctures, cuts, snags,scuffs, carcass bruised or impact breaks.
– Fire, wreck or collision.
– Improper inflation, overloading, high speed spin- ning, improper mounting or demounting, running
flat, off-road use, racing, vandalism, willful dam-
age or abuse.
– Misalignment, wheel imbalance, defective brakes or shock absorber, use of tire chains.
– Any tire which has failed as a result of adding material (e.g. tire fillers, sealant, or balancing
substances) .
B. Tires fitted to anything other than the original ve- hicles.
C. Tire worn beyond treadwear indicator (2/32nds inch or 1.6mm tread remaining) .
D. Tire presented by other than the actual owner-user.
E. Tire branded “NA” (meaning no adjustment) or “blem” (meaning blemished) .
F. Loss of time inconvenience, loss of use of the vehicle or consequential damage.
G. Ride disturbance after free-replacement conditions.
H. Tire with weather cracking which was purchased more than four years prior to presentation for adjust-
ment.
I. No Flat Spot Warranty for Original tires.

WHO IS COVERED
The original owner of a Michelin Passenger or Light
Truck tire which bears the Michelin name and complete
DOT identification number.
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG
Michelin Passenger and Light Truck tires, used in nor-
mal service on the vehicle on which they were originally
fitted and in accordance with the maintenance recom-
mendations and safety warnings contained in the Own-
er’s Manual and in the Important Tire Safety Information
Section of this booklet, are covered by this limited
warranty against defects in workmanship and material
for the life of the original usable tread, or 6 years from
the date of purchase, whichever comes first. At that
time, all warranties, express or implied, are terminated.
The usable tread is the original tread down to the level of
the tread wear indicators - 2/32nds of an inch (1.6mm)
of tread remaining. Date of purchase is documented by
new vehicle registration or tire sales invoice. If no proof
of purchase, coverage will be based on date of manu-
facture. Replacement will be made in accordance with
the terms and conditions described underWhat Mi-
chelin Will Do.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED
Tires which become unserviceable due to:Road hazard injury (e.g., a cut, snag, bruise, impact
damage, or puncture, whether repairable or not);
Incorrect mounting of the tire, tire/wheel imbalance,
or improper repair;
Misapplication, underinflation, overinflation, im-
proper maintenance, racing, 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 (1.6mm) or more across the tread on the same
tire) resulting in uneven or rapid wear;
Accident, fire, chemical corrosion, tire alteration, or
vandalism;
Ozone or weather cracking;Flat spotting caused by improper storage or brake-
lock;
The adding of liquid, solid or gaseous materials other
than air, nitrogen, or carbon dioxide (e.g. waterbase
sealers or balancing substances) .
WHAT MICHELIN WILL DO
PASSENGER AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
A tire which becomes unserviceable due to a condition
covered by this limited warranty will be replaced with a
comparable new Michelin tire, free of charge, when
2/32nds of an inch (1.6mm) or less of the original tread
is worn, (or 25% or less, whichever is most beneficial to
the user) and within 12 months of the date of purchase.
Mounting and balancing of tires is included. The cost of
any other service charges or applicable taxes are pay-
able by the user. When more than 2/32nds of an inch of original tread
has been worn (or more than 25%, whichever is most
beneficial to the user) or after 12 months from date of
purchase, the user must pay the cost of a comparable
new Michelin passenger or light truck replacement tire
on a pro-rata basis. The dealer shall determine the
charge by multiplying the percentage of the original
usable tread worn by the current actual selling price at
the adjustment location or the price on the current
Michelin Base Price List, whichever is lower. This List is
based on a predetermined price intended to fairly rep-
resent the actual selling price of the tire. The cost of
mounting, balancing and any other service charges or
applicable taxes are payable by the user.
WHAT THE CONSUMER MUST DO
When making a claim under the terms of this limited
warranty, the consumer must present the tire to an
authorized Michelin Dealer. To locate an Authorized Tire
Dealer, check the yellow pages under “Tire Dealers -
Retail.”
The vehicle on which the tire was used should be
available for inspection.

PASSENGER TIRES AND LIGHT TRUCK
TIRES LIMITED WARRANTY
Toyo Tire (U.S.A.) Corporation warrants Toyo brand
passenger tires, light truck tires and “T” Type temporary
spare tires mounted on vehicles as original equipment
for adjustable conditions as follows:
Important:In accordance with Federal Law, this war-
ranty has been designated as a “Limited Warranty.”
Nothing in this limited warranty is intended to be a
representation that tire failures cannot occur:
WHAT IS COVERED BY THE LIMITED
WARRANTY
Toyo brand passenger tires, light truck tires and full size
spare tires are warranted for adjustable conditions for
the new, original usable tread until worn down to the
tread wear indicators (2/32nds of an inch of tread
remaining) or for 60 months from the date of purchase
(as verified by a copy of the original new vehicle pur-
chase invoice) , whichever comes first. In the event the
original new vehicle purchase invoice is unavailable, the
DOT serial number will be used to determine eligibility.
See “What Is Not Covered” listed below. Presence of a
manufacturing anomaly is not necessarily required to
qualify for adjustment. (1) When 25% or less of the original usable tread
of a radial tire has been worn, the tire will be
replaced with a comparable new Toyo tire free
of charge, including mounting and balancing.
The original usable tread is the original tread
down to the level of the tread wear indicators
(2/32nds of an inch of tread remaining) . Ad-
justments for ride disturbances or vibration,
which cannot be corrected by balancing, are
only adjustable in the first 25% of usable tread
(a set of four tires will not be accepted for ride
disturbance) . Service charges or any applicable
taxes are payable by you.
(2) When more than 25% of the original usable tread of a radial tire has been worn, the user
must pay for the cost of a comparable new
Toyo replacement tire based on the amount of
tread used. This is calculated by dividing the
number of 32nds of an inch used by the origi-
nal usable tread depth and multiplying by the
actual current dealer selling price. The original
usable tread is the original tread down to the
level of the tread wear indicators (2/32nds of
an inch of tread remaining) . Service charges or
any applicable taxes are payable by you. (3) The tires must be used in normal highway ser-
vice on the vehicle they were originally installed,
used in non-commercial service and in accor-
dance with the maintenance recommendations
and safety warnings contained in the Owner’s

temporary spare tire does not conform to this limited
warranty, it will be replaced with a comparable new Toyo
tire by an authorized Toyo dealer as follows:
(1) When 50% or less of the original usable tread has been worn, the tire will be replaced with a
comparable new Toyo tire free of charge.
Mounting and balancing, service charges or
any applicable taxes are payable by you.
(2) When more than 50% of the original usable tread has been worn, you must pay for the cost
of a comparable new Toyo replacement tire
based on the amount of tread used. Mounting
and balancing, service charges or any appli-
cable taxes are payable by you.

When a tire becomes unserviceable during the first
25% of original usable tread depth or 12 months from
date of vehicle purchase, whichever is to the customer’s
benefit, it will be replaced with a comparable new
YOKOHAMA tire free of charge. During this period, tires
will be mounted and balanced without charge. Other
service charges such as tire rotation, alignment or ap-
plicable taxes are payable by the customer.
When a tire has worn past the above specified period
for free replacement, the customer must pay for the cost
of a new comparable YOKOHAMA passenger car or
light truck tire on a pro-rated basis. The dealer shall
determine this cost by multiplying the percentage of
usable tread worn by the current retail selling price of
that tire at the time of warranty replacement. The costs
of mounting, balancing and any other service charges or
applicable taxes are payable by the customer.
The tire is covered by this warranty for the life of the

mended cold air pressure level listed on the driver’s
door placard. Do not rely on car servicers to perform the
checks. The tires should be rotated at least every
8,000km (5,000 miles) or earlier if uneven wear is
(Continued on next page)
FALKEN TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

TREAD WEAR INDICATORS (WEAR BARS):Tires
contain Tread Wear Indicators (Wear Bars) in the
grooves of the tire tread which show up when only
2/32nds of an inch (1.6mm) of tread is remaining.
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 Manu-
facturers Association (RMA) . Follow these mounting
recommendations. 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, mis-
matched 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 remount it on the proper rim -
scrap it. It may be damaged internally (which is not
externally visible) by being dangerously 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 (6mm) 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 (6mm) , 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.

60 IMPORTANT TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION1
REPLACING TWO TIRES
If your vehicle was originally equipped with four tires that
were the same size and you are only replacing two of the
four tires, install the new tires on the rear axle. Placing
new tires on the front axle may cause loss of vehicle
control in some driving conditions and cause an acci-
dent and personal injury.
TRAILER TOWING
If you anticipate towing a trailer, you should see a tire
dealer for advice concerning the correct size of tire and
pressure. Tire size and pressure will depend on the type
and size of the trailer and hitch utilized, but in no case
must the maximum cold inflation pressure or the tire load
rating be exceeded. Check the tire decal and your
Owner’s Manual for further recommendations on trailer
towing.
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.
HIGH PRESSURE TEMPORARY SPARE
TIRES
1) The high-pressure spare tire in your Nissanvehicle is designed for temporary use only and
must not be used continually as a regular tire.
The standard tire should be repaired and/or
replaced as soon as possible.
2) Avoid driving over obstacles that may damage the tire through impact or cutting, such as
potholes, glass, metal, etc.
3) Speed must not exceed 50MPH (80km/h) for non-speed-rated temporary spare tires.
4) Temporary spare tires have a limited treadlife which can vary depending on road conditions
and your driving habits. The spare tire should
be returned to the trunk as soon as the stan-
dard tire can be repaired or replaced.
5) Because the high-pressure spare tire was spe- cifically designed for your car, it should not be
used on any other vehicle.
6) Do not use snow chains on your high-pressure spare. This could cause damage to your
vehicle.
7) Check the tire’s cold inflation pressure monthly and maintain at 60psi (4.2kg/cm2) even when
not in use. 8) The high-pressure spare tire should not be
used with any other rim nor should standard
tires, wheel covers, or trim rings be used on
the high-pressure spare tire rim which was
originally installed.
9) When the tread wear indicator appears on the tire, replace it only with the same type spare
tire.
10) Do not enter an automatic carwash with a tem- porary spare tire fitted.
11) Do not make a sharp turn or apply the brakes suddenly when driving on a high-pressure tem-
porary spare.
Note: When using any temporary type spare
tire, be sure to follow the vehicle Own-
er’s Manual instructions.
