CAUTION
Before purchasing winter tires, consult
an authorized dealership about potential
impacts on the vehicle's warranty.
WARNING
!
● Do not use old tires from unknown
sources, as these may have invisible
damage, potentially causing loss of
vehicle control and accidents.
● New tires may not offer optimal road grip
in the rst 500 km, so drive at appropriate
speeds to properly break in the new tires
and prevent accidents.
● Tires age over time, even if not used.
Regardless of remaining tread depth,
replace tires after 6 years.
● Frequent driving in hot environments or
overloading can cause tires to overheat
and age faster, reducing tire life.Check
tires more frequently to prevent sudden
blowouts and accidents.
● Mixing different brands, structures (radial
and bias tires), sizes, and patterns of
tires can adversely affect braking and
handling, potentially causing accidents.
WARNING
!
● If installed winter tires have a maximum
allowable speed lower than the vehicle's
maximum design speed, post a
corresponding warning label within the
driver's view.
● Do not exceed the maximum allowable
speed of the winter tires. Exceeding this
speed can cause sudden tire deflation,
shedding, or even blowouts, leading to
accidents!
Replace tires if any of the following
conditions occur:
● The tire wear indicator is visible.
● The cords or fabric in the rubber of the tire
are visible.
● Cracks in the tread or sidewall deep enough
to see the cords or fabric.
● Bulging, swelling, or delamination of the tire.
● The tire is punctured, cut, or damaged in a
way that is difcult to repair.
● The tire's age reaches 6 years from the date
of manufacture.
● When installing tires, follow the inner and
outer markings on the tire sidewall.
● Perform dynamic balancing after patching or
replacing a tire.
