GOODYEAR/DUNLOP TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM ALERT Refer to your vehicle Owner's Manual for more information on what to do if the tire pressure warning system activates. WARNING If the tire pressure-monitoring system signals an alert, follow these safety precautions to prevent a loss of vehicle control that could result in serious personal injury or death: ● Slow your speed. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 kph). ● Avoid hard cornering, hard braking and severe handling maneuvers. ● Avoid potholes and other road hazards. Remember that when your tires have lost air pressure, your vehicle's handling capability is reduced, particularly during severe maneuvers. 31 SERVICE AFTER A SYSTEM ALERT To obtain service after operating under low-inflation conditions, contact your Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility. Trained service personnel will inspect your tires to determine if they are in need of repair or replacement. To locate the nearest authorized Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility, call 1-800GOODYEAR (1-800-466-3932). WARNING Because of the unique characteristics of Run-Flat tires, the wheels on which they are mounted and your vehicle's tire pressure monitoring system, all tire service work other than routine inflation maintenance and external inspections must be performed by service personnel at a Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility. Do not attempt to mount or demount Run-Flat tires yourself; serious injury or death could result. Only specially trained persons should mount, demount and repair RunFlat tires, and more than 40 psi (270 kPa) may be required to seat beads. A safety cage and clip-on extension air hose must be used if more than 40 psi (270kPa) is needed to seat beads. TIRE REPAIR Like any other Goodyear or Dunlop speed-rated, highperformance tire, the Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tire may be repaired to correct a puncture in the tread, but PROPER MATERIALS AND PROCEDURES MUST BE USED. Contact a Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility for information on proper repairs. For the location of the nearest facility, call 1-800-GOODYEAR (1-800466-3932). WARNING Goodyear and Dunlop Run-Flat tires are designed for use only on certain original equipment wheels s upplied with a properly operating low tire pressure-monitoring system. If applied to a vehicle without a properly operating low tire pressure-monitoring system, the tires may fail when operated in an underinflated condition, resulting in loss of vehicle control and possible serious injury or death. Application of these tires to a vehicle not equipped with specified operational low tire pressuremonitoring system constitutes improper and unsafe use of this product. TO PROLONG TIRE LIFE DURING A SYSTEM ALERT The Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tire can be driven at low or zero air pressure (refer to your vehicle Owner's Manual for these limitations). To help prolong the life of a tire operating under low-inflation conditions, drive at a speed as far below 50 mph (80 kph) as possible. Also, drive the shortest distance possible before obtaining tire service. Taking these precautions will increase the chance that your tire will be repairable.
