d
epth are excluded from trial warranty.
NEW ON REAR/ROTATION RECOMMENDATION
1. Replacement of two tires: Kumho Tire recommends replacing all
f
our tires at the same time. However, when only two tires are
replaced, the new tires should be put on the rear. The newer tires,
with deeper tread, may provide better grip and water evacuation
in wet driving conditions.
2. Tire Rotations: Owners must continue to rotate tires in accordance
t
o their vehicle owner’s manual or every 5,000 miles. Side-to-side
ro

tation on "new on rear; two-tire replacements" fitments will be
acceptable.

s
econd retreaded life for 72 months from the date of manufacture.

MICHELIN®
164
Even a MICHELIN® PAX® System Tire or Self-Supporting Zero
Pressure (ZP) tire can build up excessive heat when run underinflated
for an extended period of time. The length of time and distance a
PAX® System Tire/Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tire will
perform at low or zero air pressure will depend upon the severity of
the event causing air loss, ambient temperature, speed at which the
tire is operated, and the conditions under which the tire is operated
(i.e. hard braking, cornering and other sharp maneuvers will greatly
reduce the length of time the tire can perform at low or zero air
pressure.) Continuous use of an underinflated tire may lead to sudden
tire destruction. If a tire at low or zero pressure begins to vibrate or
cause difficulty in vehicle handling, remove the tire immediately and
replace with the temporary spare. If Michelin® PAX® System Tire/
Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires are supplied as original
equipment, refer to the vehicle owner’s manual for complete details
on the low tire pressure warning system designed to alert you in the
event of a low pressure condition.

NOTE:

MICHELIN® SELF-SUPPORTING ZERO PRESSURE (ZP) TIRES
AR
E TO BE USED ONLY IN CONJUNCTION WITH AN OPERA -
TIONAL, MICHELIN® APPROVED, LOW TIRE PRESSURE
WA
RNING SYSTEM. Otherwise, all provisions of the limited
warranty are void. For a list of approved systems, see your partici -
pating Michelin® tire retailer, or call toll free:1-
800-847-3435

NOTE:

Some MICHELIN® Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires can only
be
mounted on special SH-M (Symmetric Hump - Modified) wheels.
These tires bear the special SH-M designation, molded into the side -
wall of the tire, next to the ZP designation. DO NOT MOUNT A TIRE
WI
TH THE SH-M DESIGNATION ON THE SIDEWALL ON A
STANDARD WHEEL. DOING SO VOIDS THIS LIMITED
WARRANTY AND COULD CAUSE THE TIRE TO BECOME
UNSERVICEABLE AT LOW OR ZERO PRESSURE, RESULTING IN
SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

NOTE:

MICHELIN® PAX® SYSTEM TIRES ARE TO BE USED ONLY IN
CO
NJUNCTION WITH AN OPERATIONAL, TIRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS), APPROVED BY THE VEHICLE
MANUFACTURER FOR USE WITH THE PAX SYSTEM. Otherwise,

1-877-PAX TIRE or 1-877-729-8473
For all types of tires, consult your vehicle tire placard or owner’s
ma
nual for recommended operating pressures. If the tires are
purchased as replacement tires, operating instructions for the low
pressure warning system will be provided by the manufacturer of that
system. Recommended operating pressures will be provided by a
participating Michelin® tire retailer for self supporting ZP tires.
Recommended operating pressure for PAX® System Tires will be
provided by a PAX System retailer. These inflation pressures must be
maintained as a minimum. However, do not exceed the maximum
pressure rating indicated on the tire sidewall.
CHECK THE COLD INFLATION PRESSURES IN ALL YOUR
T I

RES, INCLUDING THE SPARE, AT LEAST ONCE EACH
MONTH
Failure to maintain correct inflation may result in improper vehicle
ha
ndling and may cause rapid and irregular tire wear, sudden tire
destruction, loss of vehicle control and serious personal injury.
Therefore, inflation pressures should be checked at least once each
month and always prior to long distance trips. This applies to all tires,
including sealant types, and Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires
which are as susceptible to losing air pressure as any other type of tire
if not properly maintained.
UNDERINFLATION
It is impossible to determine whether tires are properly inflated by
si
mply looking at them. It is almost impossible to “feel or hear” when
a tire is being run underinflated or nearly flat. Tires must be checked
monthly with a tire pressure gauge.
Pressures should be checked when tires are cold, in other words,
be
fore they have been driven on. Driving, even for a short distance,
causes tires to heat up and air pressure to increase.
Checking pressure when tires are hot:
If pressures are checked after tires have been driven for more than
th
ree minutes or more than one mile, (2 km) the tires become hot and
th

e pressures will increase by approximately 4 psi. Therefore when the
tire pressure is adjusted under these conditions, it should be increased
to a gauge reading of 4 psi greater than the recommended cold
inflation pressure.

MICHELIN®
167
instructions for checking pressures when tires are hot. When tires
have cooled, check air pressure again. If any tire has lost more than
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
Sy
stem (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 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
l o

ng 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
sp

eedometer. 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
en
gage in excessive wheel spin. Accelerating the motor excessively,
particularly with automatic transmission vehicles, may cause a drive

been modified, always drive safely, avoid sudden, sharp turns or lane
changes and obey all traffic laws. Failure to do so may result in loss of
vehicle control leading to an accident and serious injury or death.
TIRE ALTERATIONS
Do not make or allow to be made any alterations on your tires.
Al
terations may prevent proper performance, leading to tire damage
which can result in an accident. Tires which become unserviceable due
to alterations such as truing, whitewall inlays, addition of balancing or
sealant liquids, or the use of tire dressing containing petroleum
distillates are excluded from warranty coverage.
REPAIRS WHEREVER POSSIBLE, SEE YOUR MICHELIN® TIRE
RE
TAILER AT ONCE
If any MICHELIN® tire sustains a puncture, have the tire demounted
an
d thoroughly inspected by any MICHELIN® tire retailer for
possible damage that may have occurred. A tread area puncture in
any MICHELIN® passenger or light truck tire can be repaired
provided that the puncture hole is not more than 1/4 inch in diameter,
no

t more than one radial cable per casing ply is damaged, and the tire
has not been damaged further by the puncturing object or by running
underinflated. Tire punctures consistent with these guidelines can be
repaired by following the US Tire Manufacturers Association
(USTMA) recommended repair procedures.
TIRE REPAIRS
Repairs of all tires must be of the combined plug and inside patch
ty
pe. Your MICHELIN® PAX® System tires must be removed from
the wheel for inspection prior to repair. Plug only repairs are
improper. A tire should be removed from the rim and inspected prior
to repair. Any tire repair done without removing the tire from the rim
is improper. An improperly repaired tire will cause further damage to
the tire by either leaking air or allowing air, moisture and
contaminants to enter the structure of the tire. An improperly repaired
tire can fail suddenly at a later date.
Never repair a tire with less than 2/32nds of an inch tread remaining.
At
this tread depth, the tire is worn out and must be replaced.
STORAGE
Tires contain waxes and emollients to protect their outer surfaces from
oz
one and weather checking. As the tire rolls and flexes, the waxes
and emollients continually migrate to the surface, replenishing this

NEXEN TIRE
184
After the 100% replacement term expires and the tire is still within
72 months from date of manufacture, the amount of credit will be
de

termined by the percentage of original tread depth remaining on
the tire. Under all circumstances, the cost of mounting, balancing and
any other service charges including applicable taxes are required to be
paid by the consumer.
MILEAGE TREAD WEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
Most patterns manufactured by NEXEN TIRE are assigned a mileage
wa
rranty that protects the consumer against premature tread wear.
If a tire reaches the end of its “usable tread life” before the stated
mileage warranty, the consumer will be issued a replacement Nexen
tire on a pro rata basis, which means the consumer will be
responsible for a percentage of the replacement cost. In order to
maintain tread wear warranty, all tires must be rotated at least every
5,000-6,000 miles (8,000-10,000 km). Under all circumstances, the cost
of

mounting, balancing and any other service charges including
applicable taxes are required to be paid by the consumer.
