TIRE CARE AND MAINTENANCE GUIDE
Tire failure can result in serious damage and/or personal injury. To
re
duce the risk of tire failure we recommend the following:
• Maintain proper inflation pressure and do not use at under inflation
o
r over inflation. Pressure should be set at the level recommended
by vehicle manufacturer.
• Wheel alignment and balancing should be checked at regular inter -
v
als.
• Do not overload. The maximum load carrying capacity is molded on
t
he sidewall of the tire.
• Do not spin your tires excessively and avoid driving over curbs,
p
otholes, obstacles and edges of pavement.
• Never drive on smooth (bald) tires. By law, tires must be replaced
w
hen 2/32" of tread depth remained, as indicated by tread wear
indicator molded in the tread grooves.
• Check your tires frequently for any scrapes, cuts, foreign objects,
s
eparations or bulges. If damage is found, do not attempt to
dismount a tire yourself. Change damaged tire with the spare and
contact a local authorized NEXEN TIRE dealer immediately.
• Do not drive in excess of speed limits allowed by law or the
m
aximum speed justified by driving conditions.
• To achieve proper even wear and gain maximum tread life, tire rota -
t
ion at regular intervals is required.
