Vehicle Care 10-41
Warning (Continued)
.
Worn or old tyres can
cause a crash. If the tread
is badly worn,
replace them.
.
Replace any tyres that
have been damaged by
impacts with potholes,
curbs, etc.
.
Improperly repaired tyres
can cause a crash. Only
the dealer or an
authorised tyre service
centre should repair,
replace, dismount, and
mount the tyres.
.
Do not spin the tyres in
excess of 56 km/h
(35 mph) on slippery
surfaces such as snow,
mud, ice, etc. Excessive
spinning may cause the
tyres to explode.
See Tyre Pressure for
High-Speed Operation on
page 10-44 for inflation pressure
adjustment for high speed
driving.
22-Inch Tyres
If the vehicle has 22-inch P285/
45R22 size tyres, they are
classified as touring tyres and
are designed for on-road use.
The low-profile, wide tread
design is not recommended for
off-road driving. See Off-Road
Driving on page 9-4, for
additional information.
Notice: Low-profile tyres are
more susceptible to damage
from road hazards or curb
impact than standard profile
tyres. Tyre and/or wheel
assembly damage can occur
when coming into contact
with road hazards like,
potholes, or sharp edged
objects, or when sliding into a
curb. The warranty does not
cover this type of damage.
Keep tyres set to the correct
inflation pressure and, when
possible, avoid contact with
curbs, potholes, and other
road hazards.
All-Season Tyres
This vehicle may come with
all-season tyres. These tyres are
designed to provide good overall
performance on most road surfaces
and weather conditions. Original
equipment tyres designed to GM's
specific tyre performance criteria
have a TPC specification code
moulded onto the sidewall. Original
equipment all-season tyres can be
identified by the last two characters
of this TPC code, which will
be “MS.”
Consider installing winter tyres on
the vehicle if frequent driving on
snow or ice-covered roads is
expected. All-season tyres provide
adequate performance for most
