3.OWNER’S OBLIGATIONS
At least monthly, the vehicle owner(s) should check the tires’ air
pressure with a gauge and inflate to the recommended 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 occurring, and
proof of maintenance records should be kept. The owner(s) should
have the tires rebalanced if vibration is experienced, and the vehicle’s
alignment should be checked if uneven or rapid wear is occurring, or
when suggested by the vehicle’s manufacturer.
All warranty claims must be presented to an authorized Falken dealer
or participating car dealership. The owner(s) must present any sup-
porting maintenance records and documentation necessary to help
determine if the tire(s) in question are deemed covered by the limited
warranty or not.
4. LEGAL RIGHTS
All implied warranties, including warranties of merchantability and
fitness for a particular purpose shall be limited in duration to the above
period. To the extent permitted by law, Falken Tire Corporation shall not
be responsible for incidental or consequential damages, such as loss of
use of the tire or the vehicle on which it is used, inconvenience, or
commercial loss, some states do not allow limitations on how long an
implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not
apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may
also have other rights, which vary from state to state. This is the only
express warranty applicable to Falken brand tires and supersedes the
terms of any previous warranty. Falken neither assumes nor authorizes
anyone to make or assume for it any other warranty.
C) UNDERSTANDING YOUR TIRES
TIRE SPEED SYMBOLS
Tires that are speed-rated are identified by the following letter symbols:
Q, S, T, U, H, V, W, Y, (Y), or (ZR). The Speed Rating’s Symbol can be
found as a part of the tire size designation (ex: 215/65HR16) or after the
load index immediately following the tire size designation (ex: 215/
65R16 97H). The Speed Rating’s Symbol indicates the maximum speed
that a tire can handle when properly inflated and loaded.

WARNING!
The traction grades assigned to this tire is based on straight ahead
braking traction tests, and does not include acceleration, cornering,
hydroplaning, or peak traction characteristics.
TEMPERATURE
The temperature grades are A(the highest), B, andC, representing the
tire’s resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat
when tested under controlled conditions or on a specified indoor
laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material
of the tire to degenerate and reduce in tire life, and excessive temperature
can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade Ccorresponds to a level of
performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No.109. Grades Band Arepresent higher
levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than minimum
required by law.
WARNING!
The temperature grade for each tie is established for a tire that is
properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, under-
inflation, or excessive loading either separately or in combination,
can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.

IN OBSERVANCE OF U.S. FEDERAL LAW, THIS LIMITED WAR-
RANTY AND ADJUSTMENT POLICY HAS BEEN DESIGNATED A
“LIMITED WARRANTY”. CTNA DOES NOT INTEND TO REPRE-
SENT THROUGH THIS LIMITED WARRANTY AND ADJUSTMENT
POLICY THAT TIRE FAILURES CAN OR CANNOT HAPPEN.
CTNA’S OBLIGATIONS
Contact the vehicle dealer from where you purchased the vehicle. Your
tires may be covered under the vehicle manufacturer ’s limited warranty.
If not, this CTNA Policy applies and replacement of Eligible Tires can be
made by any vehicle dealer authorized to handle General brand tire
adjustments or a General brand authorized dealer (“Authorized Dealer”).
CTNA will replace the tire pursuant to the terms of this Limited Warranty
and Adjustment Policy. Tires that are replaced under an adjustment basis
under this Limited Warranty and Adjustment Policy become the property
of CTNA.
OWNER’S OBLIGATIONS
To make an eligible claim under this Limited Warranty and Adjustment
Policy, the owner must present a claim with the tire to an Authorized
Dealer. For the nearest Authorized Dealer, consult the Yellow Pages, the
General brand internet address, or the 800 telephone numbers shown on
the back of this Limited Warranty and Adjustment Policy. Owner must
present new vehicle registration form or new vehicle sales invoice
indicating the date of purchase. Owner will be required to sign the CTNA
Limited Warranty Claim Form or dealer replacement sales receipt.
Owner is responsible for paying all applicable taxes set forth under this
Limited Warranty and Adjustment Policy. Owner is also responsible for
paying local tire disposal fees and any parts or service regardless of
mileage or months of service. This includes payment for tire rotation,
alignment, towing, road service, valve stems and tire repairs. Owner is
responsible for maintaining proper tire air pressure and for proper
maintenance of the tire.

is important for proper tire load distribution and function. The maximum
load capacity stamped on the sidewalls of P-Metric & European Metric
tires is reduced by 10% when used on a light truck, utility vehicle or
trailer. Never fit P-Metric or European Metric tires to light trucks that
specify LT-type replacement tires.
DON’T SPIN YOUR TIRES EXCESSIVELY
Avoid excessive tire spinning when your vehicle is stuck in snow, ice,
mud or sand. The centrifugal forces generated by a free-spinning
tire/wheel assembly may cause sudden tire explosion, resulting in
vehicle damage and/or serious personal injury to you or a bystander.
Never exceed 35 mph / 55 kph, as indicated on your speedometer. Use a
gentle backward and forward rocking motion to free your vehicle for
continued driving. Never stand near or behind a tire spinning at high
speeds, for example, while attempting to push a vehicle that is stuck or
when an on-the-car spin balance machine is in use.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR WEAR
Always remove tires from service when they reach two thirty-seconds of
an inch (2/32) remaining tread depth. All new tires have tread wear
indicators which appear as smooth banks in the tread grooves when they
wear to the two thirty seconds of an inch (2/32) level. Many wet weather
accidents result from skidding on bald or nearly bald tires. Excessively
worn tires are also more susceptible to penetrations.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR DAMAGE
Frequent (at least monthly) inspection of your tires for signs of damage
and their general condition is important for safety. If you have any
questions, have your tire Dealer inspect them. Impacts, penetrations,
cracks, knots, bulges or air loss always require tire removal and expert
inspection. Never perform a temporary repair or use an inner tube as a
substitute for a proper repair. Only qualified persons should repair tires.
PROPER TIRE REPAIR
NOTE:Goodyear does not warrant any inspection or repair process.
The repair is entirely the responsibility of the repairer and should be
made in accordance with established Rubber Manufacturers Association
(RMA) procedures.

RUN-FLAT TECHNOLOGY EXTENDED MOBILITY TECHNOLOGY
(EMT™), RUNONFLAT® (ROF) AND DUNLOP SELFSUPPORTING
TECHNOLOGY (DSST®) ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT TIRES
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
OPERATIONAL MONITORING
The information contained in this Limited Warranty Brochure applies
only to the Original Equipment tires supplied with your vehicle. In order
for Goodyear Run-Flat (Extended Mobility Technology [EMT], RunOn-
Flat [ROF]) or Dunlop Run-Flat (Dunlop Self- Supporting Technology
[DSST]) tires to obtain the performance criteria stated within this Limited
Warranty, Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tires must use specific parts,
such as a low tire pressure monitoring system authorized by the Original
Equipment vehicle manufacturer.
RUN-FLAT TIRE FEATURE:
The Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tire is a high-performance tire with a
remarkable feature: It can operate for limited distances with very low or
even no inflation pressure (refer to your Vehicle Owner ’s Manual for
these limitations). This is an important benefit, especially if inflation loss
occurs at a location where immediately stopping your vehicle could be
hazardous. TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM ALERT Refer to
your vehicle Owner ’s Manual for more information on what to do if the
tire pressure warning system activates.
WARNING!
If the tire pressure-monitoring system signals an alert, follow these
safety precautions to prevent a loss of vehicle control that could
result in serious personal injury or death:
•Slow your speed. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 kph).
• Avoid hard cornering, hard braking and severe handling maneu-
vers.
• Avoid potholes and other road hazards.
Remember that when your tires have lost air pressure, your vehicle’s
handling capability is reduced, particularly during severe
maneuvers.

TIRE DISABLEMENT
SAFETY WARNING
Any tire may fail as a result of an improperly repaired puncture, impact
damage, improper inflation, overloading or other conditions resulting
from use or misuse. Tire failures, such as a rapid air loss or a tread and
belt detachment, may increase risk of injury or death and/or property
damage. To reduce the risk of a tire failure, Michelin recommends you
thoroughly read and follow the recommendations in the Michelin
Owner ’s Manual, vehicle owner ’s manual, tire placard information, and
tire sidewall information regarding safety warnings, proper tire use and
maintenance.

For Example Only:
Gauge reading of hot tire:.............................................. 32 psi (220 kPa)
If recommended cold inflation pressure is: .................... 30 psi (205 kPa)
Desired gauge reading of hot tire 30 + 4 psi =.............34 psi (205 + 30 = 235 kPa)
Therefore: add 2 psi....................................................... (15 kPa)
Check cold pressure as soon as possible, preferably within 24 hours.
“Bleeding” air from hot tires could result in underinflation. Use an
accurate tire gauge to check pressures. Never allow children to inflate
or deflate tires.
FOR MICHELIN® PAX® SYSTEM TIRES/SELF-SUPPORTING ZERO
PRESSURE (ZP) TIRES CHECK INFLATION PRESSURES AS SOON
AS POSSIBLE FOLLOWING A LOW PRESSURE WARNING
The PAX® System requires a functioning, correctly calibrated on-board
vehicle tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) to monitor the air
pressure and alert the driver when a low pressure event occurs. Be
certain to ensure that your vehicle’s Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) is functioning and is correctly calibrated. Refer to your vehicle
owner ’s manual or your vehicle dealer.
Low pressure warning systems are designed to alert the driver to a low
air pressure situation in at least one tire on the vehicle. While your ZP
tires are designed to provide continued mobility in the event of an air
loss, the sooner you respond to a warning and take corrective action, the
greater the likelihood that the tire can be returned to service.
Always visually inspect your MICHELIN® PAX® System tire and
self-supporting tires and use a pressure gauge to check the air pressure
in all 4 tires following any low pressure warning. (Unless advised to do
otherwise by the manufacturer of your low pressure warning system.)
If the tire pressure is at or below 18 PSI, proceed to the nearest
Authorized PAX System Retailer for PAX tires or a participating Michelin
tire retailer for ZP tires (or a representative of your vehicle manufacturer
if advised to do so in your vehicle owner ’s manual) and have the tire
demounted and thoroughly inspected for possible internal damage.
If you are unable to see any damage to the tire, and the tire pressure is
more than 18 PSI, reinflate your tire to the proper air pressure. (See
instructions for checking pressures when tires are hot.) When tires
have cooled, check air pressure again. If any tire has lost more than
