5 PSI from the previous pressure check, have the tire inspected at once
by an authorized PAX System Retailer for PAX tires or a participating
Michelin tire retailer (or representative of your vehicle manufacturer if
your vehicle owner ’s manual so advises.) Failure to do so may cause
irreparable damage to the tire and result in sudden tire destruction and
personal injury.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEMS (TPMS):
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) that is designed to monitor the pressure of tires mounted on your
vehicle and sends a signal to the driver if a tire pressure falls below a
predetermined level. A TPMS should not replace monthly manual
pressure checks for all four (4) tires and the spare. We recommend that
you manually monitor and check tire pressure inflation with a pressure
gauge. Your tires should have the recommended pressure listed by your
vehicle’s manufacturer. This information can be found in the vehicle
owner ’s manual and often on a placard located in the vehicle’s door
jamb, inside the fuel hatch, or on the glove compartment door. If you
have a plus size fitment that requires a higher inflation pressure, your tire
pressure monitoring system will require re-calibration to new inflation
pressure. Refer to your tire dealer/installer of plus size tires for proper
inflation pressure.
We recommend checking air pressure once each month, and before a long
trip. Whether you have a full-sized or mini-spare, make sure that it is
properly inflated as well. If the TPMS generates improper monitoring or
signals we recommend that you consult your owner ’s manual provided
with your vehicle and follow-up with your vehicle’s manufacturer.
TIRE SPINNING
Do not spin wheels in excess of 35 mph (55 km/h) as indicated on the
speedometer. Excessive speed in a free-running, unloaded tire can cause
it to “explode” from centrifugal force. The energy released by such an
explosion is sufficient to cause serious physical injury or death. Never
allow anyone to stand near or behind the spinning tire.
When in mud, sand, snow, ice or other slippery conditions, do not engage
in excessive wheel spin. Accelerating the motor excessively, particularly
with automatic transmission vehicles, may cause a drive tire that has lost
traction to spin beyond its speed capability. This is also true when
balancing a drive tire/wheel assembly on the vehicle using the vehicle
engine to spin the tire/wheel assembly.
MICHELIN
171

DO NOT OVERLOAD - DRIVING ON ANY OVERLOADED TIRE IS
DANGEROUS
The maximum load rating of your tires is molded on the tire sidewall. Do
not exceed this rating. Follow the loading instructions of the manufac-
turer of your vehicle and this will ensure that your tires are not
overloaded. Tires which are loaded beyond their maximum allowable
loads for the particular application will build up excessive heat that may
result in sudden tire destruction.
Do not exceed the gross axle weight rating for any axle on your vehicle.
TRAILER TOWING
If you anticipate towing a trailer, you should visit any Michelin tire
retailer for advice concerning the correct size tire and pressures. Tire size
and pressures will depend upon the type and size of trailer and hitch
utilized, but in no case must the maximum cold inflation pressure or tire
load rating be exceeded. Check the tire decal and the owner ’s manual
supplied by the manufacturer of your vehicle for further recommenda-
tions on trailer towing.
MICHELIN® PAX® System Tires/Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP)
Tires and Trailer Towing
Operation of Pax or ZP tires at low or zero air pressure with a trailer in
tow, is dangerous and is not recommended. If the low pressure warning
indicator is activated when a trailer is in tow, stop, disconnect the trailer,
and do not continue to tow the trailer until the tire has been repaired and
re-inflated to the proper air pressure. If the tire cannot be repaired, it must
be replaced with a new full size, PAX/ZP tire, and inflated to the proper
air pressure, before the trailer can be safely towed again.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCING ARE IMPORTANT FOR
SAFETY AND MAXIMUM MILEAGE FROM YOUR TIRES.
CHECK HOW YOUR TIRES ARE WEARING AT LEAST ONCE EACH
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 alignment or balance. These
conditions not only shorten the life of your tires but adversely affect the
handling characteristics of your vehicle, which could be dangerous. If
you detect irregular wear or vibration, have your alignment and balance
MICHELIN176

checked
immediately.
Ti re s

will
show

more
wear

TIRE ROTATION AND REPLACEMENT
To obtain maximum tire wear, it may be necessary to rotate your tires.
Refer to your vehicle owner ’s manual for instructions on tire rotation. If
you do not have an owner‘s manual for your vehicle, Michelin recom-
mends rotating your tires every 6,000 to 8,000 miles (10,000 to 12,000 km).
Monthly inspection for tire wear is recommended. Your tires should be
rotated at the first sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs before 6,000
miles (10,000 km). This is true for all vehicles.
MICHELIN
177

When rotating tires with a directional tread pattern, observe the arrows
molded on the sidewall which show the direction the tire should turn.
Care must be taken to maintain the proper turning direction.
Some Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) may not recognize
that a tire has been moved to a different position on your vehicle. Make
certain that your TPMS system is reset, if necessary, so as to correctly
identify the location of each tire on your vehicle. Refer to your vehicle
owner ’s manual or your vehicle dealer.
Determine whether rotated tires require tire inflation adjustment as front
and rear position tire pressure may vary according to the vehicle
manufacturer ’s specification due to the actual load on that wheel
position. Some vehicles may have different sized tires mounted on the
front and rear axles, and these different sized tires have rotation
restrictions. Always check the vehicle owner ’s manual for the proper
rotation recommendations.
Full-size Spare
Full-size spare tires (not temporary spares) of the same size and construc-
tion should be used in a five (5) tire rotation. Always check the inflation
pressure of the full-size spare immediately before incorporating it into
rotation. Follow the vehicle manufacturer ’s recommended pattern for
rotation, or if not available, see a qualified tire technician.
Replacement of Two (2) Tires
It is recommended that all four (4) tires are replaced at the same time.
However, when only two tires are replaced, the new tires should be put
on the rear. The new tires, with deeper tread, may provide better grip and
water evacuation in wet driving conditions.
CUSTOMIZATION OF TIRES, WHEELS, OR SUSPENSION ON
SUVS AND LIGHT TRUCKS
Due to their size, weight and higher center of gravity, vehicles such as
SUVs and light trucks do not have the same handling characteristics as
automobiles. Because of these differing characteristics, failure to operate
your SUV/truck in a proper and safe manner can increase the likelihood
of vehicle rollover. Modifications to your SUV/truck tire size, tire type,
wheels or suspension can change its handling characteristics and further
increase the likelihood of vehicle rollover. Whether your SUV/truck has
the original equipment configuration for tires, wheels and suspension or
whether any of these items have been modified, always drive safely,
MICHELIN178

STORAGE
Tires contain waxes and emollients to protect their outer surfaces from
ozone and weather checking. As the tire rolls and flexes, the waxes and
emollients continually migrate to the surface, replenishing this protection
throughout the normal use of the tire. Consequently, when tires sit
outdoors, unused for long periods of time (a month or more) their
surfaces become dry and more susceptible to ozone and weather check-
ing and the casing becomes susceptible to flat spotting.For this reason,
tires should always be stored in a cool, dry, clean, indoor environment.
If storage is for one month or more, eliminate the weight from the tires
by raising the vehicle or by removing the tires from the vehicle. Failure
to store tires in accordance with these instructions could result in
damage to your tires or premature aging of the tires and sudden tire
failure.
When tires are stored, be sure they are placed away from sources of heat
and ozone such as hot pipes and electric generators. Be sure that surfaces
on which tires are stored are clean and free from grease, gasoline or other
substances which could deteriorate the rubber. (Tires exposed to these
materials during storage or driving could be subject to sudden failure.)
FOLLOW THESE MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS
Tire changing can be dangerous and must be done by professionally
trained persons using proper tools and procedures as specified by the
Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA). PAX® System tires must be
mounted and dismounted only by specially trained, authorized PAX
System retailers, utilizing PAX System authorized equipment.
Your tires should be mounted on wheels of correct size and type and
which are in good, clean condition. Wheels that are bent, chipped, rusted
(steel wheels) or corroded (alloy wheels) may cause tire damage. The
inside of the tire must be free from foreign material. Have your retailer
check the wheels before mounting new tires. Mismatched tires and rims
can explode during mounting. Also, mismatched 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
have been damaged internally (which is not externally visible) by having
been 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 only be
mounted on wheels designed for tubeless tires i.e., wheels which have
MICHELIN
180

sidewall of the tire. DO NOT MOUNT ZP TIRES WITH THE SH-M
DESIGNATION ON STANDARD WHEELS. IN SUCH APPLICATIONS,
THE TIRES MAY BECOME UNSERVICEABLE AT LOW OR ZERO
PRESSURE, CAUSING SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
SPECIAL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR MICHELIN® TRX™
TIRES
The MICHELIN® TRX™ tire is a tubeless tire that must only be mounted
on special wheels (TR or JM type) with millimetric seat diameter. If TRX
tires are mounted on standard wheels, they will not retain air due to an
air escape feature designed into the bead area of these tires.
Do not try to override this feature by mounting TRX tires with tubes.
The MICHELIN® TRX tire must be used on all wheel positions.
TEMPORARY TYPE SPARE TIRES
When using any temporary type spare tire, be sure to follow the vehicle
manufacturer ’s instructions.
READING THE DOT
DOT XXXX XXXX XXX (prior to August 2000)
DOT XXXX XXXX XXX (1990-1999)
DOT XXXX XXXX XXXX (after July 2000)
THE DOT
The “DOT” symbol certifies tire manufacturer ’s compliance with U.S.
Department of Transportation tire safety standards. Next to the symbol is
the tire identification or “serial number”. The first two characters identify
the plant where the tire was manufactured. The next two characters
reflect the tire size. The following one to four digits may be used at the
tire manufacturer ’s option as a descriptive code. The last three characters
are numbers identifying the week and year of manufacture. (Example:
“O25” means second week of the year of decade, eg.: 1995, 1985, etc.) For
the 1990-1999 decade MICHELIN® brand tires are marked with a triangle
pointing to the last three numeric characters. Tires produced after July
2000 have an additional digit to identify a given decade. For example,
2800 means the tire was produced during the 28th week of 2000; 0201
during the 2nd week of 2001. If the last digits of your DOT number
contains three numeric characters and is not marked with a triangle,
consult a qualified tire technician to determine the year of manufacture.
