2017 NISSAN MURANO HYBRID mileage

3. HOW A PRO RATA PRICE IS
CALCULATED
The replacement tire price will be determined by multi-
plying the percentage of the usable tread worn by the
Dealers Selling Price (excluding all applicable taxes) at
the time of the adjustment or the Continental/General
brand current published Adjustment Base Price, which-
ever is lower. The usable tread is the original tread down
to the tread wear indicators (2/32nds of an inch of tread
remaining) . The Adjustment Base Price is intended to
fairly represent a Dealer’s Selling Price for the same or
comparable tire.

Important Tire Safety Information in this booklet may
result in tire failure or explosion causing serious
personal injury or death.
34CONTINENTAL/GENERAL TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

CHECKING YOUR TIRE’S AIR PRESSURE
Checking your air pressure at least once a month is vital
to help your tires perform properly and help you get the
best gas mileage possible. Tires can lose up to 7 kPa
(1 psi) per month under normal conditions and lose up
to 7 kPa (1 psi) per every 9°C (16°F) drop in tempera-
ture. Here are some simple steps on how to check the
air pressures in your tires:1. Remove the valve stem cap.
2. Place the end of the tire gauge firmly against the tire’s valve stem.
3. Read the current pressure displayed on the gauge that is currently in the tire.
4. Increase pressure at this time (if needed) and re- check with your tire gauge.
5. Replace the valve stem cap.
6. Repeat until all of your tires have been checked and adjusted accordingly.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
A tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is a safety
system found in most vehicles manufactured after
2005. There are pressure sensing transmitters mounted
inside of each tire that sends readings to the central
computer (ECU) in your vehicle. The TPMS system will
alert you when one or more of your tires are underin-
flated by 25% or more by turning on a warning light on
your vehicle’s dashboard or heads up display (HUD)
screen. This means that one or more of your tires may
have a low-pressure condition. Follow the instructions
in your owner’s manual. ROTATION and WEAR**
Falken recommends rotating your tires at least every
8,000km (5,000 miles) and periodically inspecting your
tires to make sure they are free of road hazards (such as
nails, screws, large wood splinters, etc.) that might pen-
etrate your tires causing them to lose air pressure and to
ensure they are wearing evenly. Common irregular wear
patterns are: misalignment wear, where the tire shows
excessive outer or inner tread wear. Tire sidewalls should
also be inspected for cuts, snags, bruises, and weather
cracking. If any of these noted conditions are present
during inspection, we recommend returning to your ser-
vicing tire dealer to be corrected to ensure long tire life.
TIRE REPLACEMENT
Falken recommends replacing your tires when the tread
wears down to the wear bars at 1.6mm (2/32 of an inch) ,
which are located across the tread in several locations
around the tire. If only two tires are being replaced, the two
new tires should always be installed on the rear of the
vehicle to aid in preventing your vehicle from hydroplaning,
even if your car is front wheel drive. It’s always recom-
mended to have your new tires balanced during installa-
tion, and alignment checked if the previous tires show and
irregular wear. Tires that have been in use for 5 (five) years
or more should continue to be inspected by a qualified tire
specialist, at least annually. It is recommended that any
tires 10 (ten) years old or older from the date of manufac-
ture, including spare tires, be replaced with new tires as a
precaution even if such tires appear serviceable and even
if they have not reached the legal worn out limit at 1.6mm
(2/32 of an inch) .
TIRE REPAIRS
In the event that you get a flat tire while driving, it is best to
find a nearby, safe place to stop and install your spare tire
or call a tow truck. The less distance that you drive on your
low or flat tire, the better chances your tire has of being
repairable. Once you are able to get to your local servicing
tire dealer, have them dismount the tire from the rim and
thoroughly inspect the inside of the tire. It is important to
know the difference between a proper tire repair and an
improper one because it can be critical to you and your
vehicle’s safety. An improper repair could pose a safety
threat to you and your family and could also affect your
tire’s manufacturer warranty. Here are some tips in deter-
mining if your damaged tire can be properly repaired or not:
●Always have the tire removed from the wheel and
inspected before any repair is performed.
●Tires with less than 1.6mm (2/32 of an inch) of tread
should NOT be repaired.
●Never repair a tire with a puncture larger than 6mm
(1/4 of an inch) .
●Repairs should be limited to the tread area only.
●Repairs cannot overlap one another.
●A plug and patch or plug/patch combo should be
used to effectively repair a tire puncture.
●If anything seems questionable at any time during the
repair process, ask your service advisor for more
details and/or call the tire manufacturer to make sure
the tire’s warranty isn’t being voided.

FALKEN TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY 37

●WORN TIRES
Never drive on worn tires. Tires should be replaced
by trained personnel when 2/32nds inch (1.6mm) of
tread depth remain, as indicated by treadwear indi-
cators molded into the tread grooves. Use of worn-
out tires (less than 2/32nds of an inch remaining
tread depth) increases the probability of tire failure.
In most states, it is illegal to drive with less than
2/32nds of an inch of remaining tread depth.
●SPEED LIMITS
Operating your vehicle in excess of lawful speed
limits or the maximum speeds justified by driving
conditions can be dangerous. Excessive speed cre-
ates heat buildup in a tire, leading to possible tire
failure.
●SPEED-RATED TIRES
Speed-rated tires are identified by letters S, T, H, V,
W, or Z as either part of the size designation (e.g.,
HR) , or part of the service description adjacent to the
size designation (e.g., 94H) and indicates the maxi-
mum speed capability of the tire when properly
loaded and inflated. However, even when properly
loaded and inflated, driving for prolonged periods at
high speeds can cause tire damage and possible tire
failure which could lead to an accident. Original
equipment speed-rated tires must be replaced with
tires of the same or higher speed rating if the speed
capability of the vehicle is to be maintained. Consult
your Hankook dealer for the tires best suited to your
vehicle driving habit. Repairing of speed-rated tires
must be done in accordance with RMA repair pro-
cedures and is limited to one 1/4 diameter repair in
the tread area.
●TIRE ROTATION
Rotate your tires for longer tire life. Front and rear
tires perform different jobs and can wear differently.
Consult your vehicle Owner’s Manual for mileage
recommendations and rotation patterns.
●ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION FOR TEM-
PORARY TIRE
A. Air pressure. Check inflation pressure as soon as practical after
installation and inflate to 60 psi. The tire pressure
should be checked monthly and maintained at
60 psi while the tire is stored or in service.
B. Vehicle restriction. The temporary spare tire was specifically designed
for your car and should not be used on any other
vehicle.
C. Other restrictions. The temporary spare tire should not be used with
other wheels, nor should standard tires, snow tires,
wheel covers, or trim rings be used with the tempo-
rary spare wheel. If such use is attempted, damage
to these items or other vehicle components may
occur.

WARNING FOR YOUR SAFETY
●TIRE DEMOUNTING AND MOUNTING
Improper tire mounting and inflation procedures may
cause tire beads to break with explosive force during
installation of the tire on the rim, causing personal
injury and property damage. Follow the Rubber
Manufacturers Association installation and safety
procedure for mounting and inflating tires. Tire and
rim must match in size. Rim parts must match by
manufacturer’s design. Clean rim. Lubricate rim and
beads. Do not exceed the maximum recommended
pressure to seat beads on rim. Use remote control
inflation equipment and inflation cage. NOTE:
Never inflate over 40 psi to seat beads. Mount
radial ply tires only on rims designated by wheel
manufacturer as suitable for radial tire. Only spe-
cially trained persons shall mount tires.
●AIR PRESSURE
Check the pressure in your tires, including your
spare, at least monthly, and always before and during
extended driving, when tires cold (at least 3 hours
after the vehicle has been stopped and before it is
driven more than 1 mile / 1.6 kilometers) . Do not
reduce pressure when tires are hot, use an accurate
air pressure gauge to check pressure and maintain it
at the level recommended on the vehicle tire placard
or in the Owner’s Manual. Underinflation produces
extreme flexing of sidewalls and builds up heat to the
point that premature tire failure may occur. Overin-
flation can cause the tires ‘to be more susceptible to
impact damage. Cold tire pressures,” however,
should never be higher than the limit molded on the
sidewall.
●LOAD LIMITS
Never exceed the load-carrying limits molded onto
the sidewall of your tires or the maximum vehicle load
limit as shown on the vehicle tire placard, whichever
is less. Overloading builds up excessive heat in the
tire and leads to early and/or sudden failure.

KUMHO TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY 45

●HAZARDS
Avoid running over objects (e.g., chuckholes, rocks,
curbs, metal, glass, etc.) which may possibly cause
internal tire damage. Continued use of a tire that has
suffered internal damage (which may not be exter-
nally visible) can lead to dangerous tire failure. De-
termination of suspected internal damage requires
demounting the tire from its rim and examination by
trained tire personnel.
●WORN TIRES
Never drive on worn tires. Tires should be replaced
by trained personnel when 2/32nds inch (1.6mm) of
remaining tread depth, as indicated by treadwear
indicators molded into the tread grooves. Use of
worn-out tires (less than 2/32nds of an inch remain-
ing tread depth) increases the probability of tire
failure. In most states, it is illegal to drive with less
than 2/32nds of an inch of remaining tread depth.
●SPEED LIMITS
Operating your vehicle in excess of lawful speed
limits or the maximum speeds justified by driving
conditions can be dangerous. Excessive speed cre-
ates heat buildup in a tire, leading to possible tire
failure.
●SPEED-RATED TIRES
Speed-rated tires are identified by letters P, Q, S, T,
H, V, W, or Z as either part of the size designation
(e.g., HR) , or part of the service description adjacent
to the size designation (e.g., 94H) and indicates the
maximum speed capability of the tire when properly
loaded and inflated. However, even when properly
loaded and inflated, driving for prolonged periods at
high speeds can cause tire damage and possible tire
failure which could lead to an accident. Original
equipment speed-rated tires must be replaced with
tires of the same or high speed rating if the speed
capability of the vehicle is to be maintained. Consult
your Kumho dealer for the tires best suited to your
vehicle driving habit. Repairing of speed-rated tires
must be done in accordance with RMA” repair pro-
cedures and is limited to one 1/4 diameter repair in
the tread area.
●TIRE ROTATION

52 TOYO TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

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
life of your tires, but adversely affect the handling char-
acteristics of your vehicle which could be dangerous. If
you detect irregular wear or vibration, have your align-
ment and balance checked immediately. Tires which
have been run underinflated will show more wear on the
shoulders than in the center of the tread.
HARD BRAKING
You must inspect your tires after any hard braking cir-
cumstances or after tires have slid on the pavement.
This can cause a flat spot in a section of the tire tread.
TIRE SPINNING
Never spin your tires above a speedometer reading of
35 mph (55 km/h) if your vehicle becomes stuck. The
centrifugal force generated by the free spinning
tire/wheel assembly may cause a sudden tire explosion,
resulting in vehicle damage and/or serious personal
injury or death. Never allow anyone to stand near or
behind a tire spinning at high speed while attempting to
push a vehicle that is stuck. When in mud, sand, snow,
ice or other slippery conditions, do not indulge in exces-
sive wheel spin. In such conditions, with automatic
transmission vehicles, by accelerating the engine ex-
cessively, it is possible to spin one of the drive tires
beyond its speed capability. This is also true whenbalancing a drive tire/wheel assembly using the engine
of the vehicle to spin the wheel.
TIRE TREAD
Tires must be replaced when the depth of the tread
reaches 2/32 inch (1.6 mm) . Tires are manufactured
with tread wear indicators molded into the tire grooves
which indicate tread wearout. As tires approximate
2/32 inch (1.6 mm) wearout, the tread gauge becomes
thinner and more vulnerable to the effects of road haz-
ards. Also, worn tires are more subject to hydroplaning,
which can cause loss of control. Therefore, visual tire
inspection becomes more crucial as the tires wear out.
WORN TIRES
Never drive on worn tires. Tires should be replaced by
trained personnel when 2/32nds of an inch tread depth
remains, as indicated by the tread wear indicators molded
into the tread grooves. In most states, it is illegal to drive
with less than 2/32nds of an inch of tread remaining.
TIRE MIXING
For best performance select tires similar in size and load
rating to the original equipment tires. It is recommended
that the same size and type of tire be used on all four wheel
positions. In certain tires, casing ply material and ply
construction may vary as indicated on the sidewall of the
tire. When changing or replacing tires, it is preferred that
all four tires are the same construction type (i.e., High
Performance, All Season, Mud & Snow) and construction
(Radial or Bias Ply) . Before mixing tires of different types
on a vehicle in any configuration, be sure to check the
vehicle Owner’s Manual for its recommendations.
Tires which meet the Rubber Manufacturer’s Associa-
tion (RMA) definition of mud and snow tires are marked
M/S, M+S, M&S. On such tires, this designation is
molded into the sidewall. Tires without this notation are
not recommended for mud and/or snow driving.
If snow tires are needed, it is necessary to select tires
equivalent in size and load rating to the original equip-
ment tires. Always fit performance snow tires in sets of
four (4) for optimum mud & snow traction and mainte-
nance of vehicle handling characteristics. If you do not,
it may adversely affect the safety and handling of your
vehicle. It is also important to check the vehicle Owner’s
Manual before mixing or matching tires on 4-wheel drive
vehicles as this may require special precautions.
Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for more informa-
tion on tire replacement precautions.
TIRE ROTATION
Tires on your Nissan vehicle should be rotated every
7,500 miles or as irregular wear develops. If irregular wear
becomes apparent or if the wear rate on the tires is
perceptibly uneven, the tires should be rotated in such a
way to alleviate the problem. Check your vehicle for any
mechanical problems and correct if necessary. Any rota-
tion pattern or procedure may be followed including those
indicated in the Owner’s Manual. Some tires have arrows
on the sidewall showing the direction in which the tire
should turn. When rotating this type of tire, care must be
taken to maintain the proper turning direction as indicated
by the arrows. Some vehicles have different tire sizes
specified for front and rear axles. Tires on these vehicles
should not be rotated side to side (unless they are non-
directional) . Where a temporary type spare tire is avail-
able, it should not be included in the tire rotation schedule.
Such tires are intended for temporary use only.
