SAFETY INFORMATION FOLLOW THESE MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS Tire changing can be dangerous and must be done by professionally trained persons using proper tools and procedures as specified by the Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA). Single or dual assemblies must be completely deflated before demounting. Your tires should be mounted on wheels of correct size and type and which are in good, clean condition. Wheels that are bent, chipped, rusted (steel wheels) or corroded (alloy wheels) may cause tire damage. The inside of the tire must be free from foreign material. Have your retailer check the wheels before mounting new tires. Mismatched tires and rims can explode during mounting. Also, mismatched tires and rims can result in dangerous tire failure on the road. If a tire is mounted by error on the wrong-sized rim, do not remount it on the proper rim - scrap it. It may have been damaged internally (which is not externally visible) by having been dangerously stretched and could fail on the highway. Old valves may leak. When new tubeless tires are mounted, have new valves of the correct type installed. Tubeless tires must only be mounted on wheels designed for tubeless tires i.e., wheels which have safety humps or ledges. It is recommended that you have your tires and wheels balanced. Tires and wheels, which are not balanced, may cause steering difficulties, a bumpy ride, and irregular tire wear. Be sure that all your valves have suitable valve caps. The valve cap is the primary seal against air loss. TEMPORARY SPARE TIRES When using any temporary spare tire, be sure to follow the vehicle manufacturer's instructions. REMEMBER...TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR TIRES AND POSSIBLE ACCIDENT: • CHECK TIRE PRESSURE AT LEAST ONCE EACH MONTH WHEN TIRES ARE COLD AND BEFORE LONG TRIPS. • DO NOT UNDERINFLATE/OVERINFLATE. • DO NOT OVERLOAD. • DRIVE AT MODERATE SPEEDS, OBSERVE LEGAL LIMITS. • AVOID DRIVING OVER POTHOLES, OBSTACLES, CURBS OR EDGES OF PAVEMENT. 70 2013, 2014, 2015 Tire Warranty (stn) Supplement, 4th Printing, February 2014 Canadian_French (fr_can)
