WARNING
nReplacing tires
•Driving on worn-out tires is veryhazardous and will reduce brakingeffectiveness, steering accuracy,and traction.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Your vehicle is equipped with tiresdesigned to provide for safe rideand handling capability. Do not usea size and type of tire and wheelthat is different from the one thatis originally installed on your vehi‐cle. It can affect the safety andperformance of your vehicle,which could lead to handling failureor rollover and serious injury.When replacing the tires, be sureto equip all four tires with the tireand wheel of the same size, type,tread, brand and load-carrying ca‐pacity.
•The use of any other tire size ortype may seriously affect ride,handling, ground clearance, stop‐ping distance, body to tire clear‐ance, snow tire clearance, andspeedometer reliability.
•It is best to replace all four tires atthe same time. If that is not possi‐ble, or necessary, then replace thetwo front or two rear tires as apair. Replacing just one tire can se‐riously affect your vehicle’s han‐dling.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•The ABS works by comparing thespeed of the wheels. Tire size canaffect wheel speed. When replac‐ing tires, all 4 tires must use thesame size originally supplied withthe vehicle. Using tires of a differ‐ent size can cause the ABS (Anti-lock Brake System) and ESC (Elec‐tronic Stability Control) to work ir‐regularly.
