SPARE TIRE AND WINTER TIRE
• Mixing tires could cause you to lose control while
driving. Be sure to use the same size and type of
tires of the same manufacturer on all wheels. If
you do not use the same tires on the vehicle
equipped with the TOD (4 wheel drive), it may cause
a serious damage to the vehicle’s drive system.
• Check the inflation pressure, cracks and tearing of
tires before driving.
• Improperly tightened wheel nuts can cause the
wheel to become loose and even come off. This
could lead to an accident. Be sure to check and
tighten the wheel nuts as specified before any long
journey.
• Do not use non-genuine wheel and tire. Non-genu-
ine wheel and tire may have inferior performance
and function and dangerous for safe driving. Also,
any defects due to using them cannot be covered
by warranty.
• Be sure to check the tires and wheels before driving.
If a wheel is damaged, the tire inflation pressure
can be decreased and the tire can be damaged.
• If a tire has been impacted by a stone or any other
objects during driving, have it checked by a
Ssangyong Dealer or Ssangyong Authorized Ser-
vice Center.
• The use of tire sizes other than the specified sizes
may cause abnormal operation of the steering
wheel, increased fuel consumption, damage to the
powertrain or the braking system, vibration, or un-
even tire wear. Always use the specified tires from
the same manufacturer.
WINTER TIRE
Use snow tires when driving on snowy or icy roads.
If winter tires are used, they must be installed to all 4 wheels.
SPARE TIRE
The temporary spare tire is only for an emergency. Do not use it for normal
driving. With these tires, do not drive more 80 km/h. The spare tire should
be replaced with a regular tire as soon as possible.
Check the tire conditions and pressure as needed and always keep it
available. For replacing procedures, refer to “In Case of Emergency” sec-
tion in this manual.
After replacing the tire, be sure to adjust the pressure to the specified pressure
of the tire. Otherwise, the suspension system and driving system may be damaged.
CAUTION
• Drive very slowly with extra caution on snowy or icy roads.
• The snow tire with arrow direction markings on its side wall should be in-
stalled according to the arrow direction.
• The snow tires cannot guarantee your safety on icy and slippery road. Drive
with extra caution, avoiding sudden acceleration, braking or movements of
the steering wheel.
• When the snow tires are not needed anymore, replace them with ordinary
tires. Keep the removed snow tires in a cool and shady place. Be careful not
to contact them with any oil, grease, or fuel.
WARNING
TIRE CHAIN
Chains must be installed on the rear wheels only.
If you have to install the chains on the front wheels, drive cautiously and avoid
severe turns to prevent the surrounding parts from being damaged.
