mud and snow.

and the sidewall area, indicates how many
layers of rubber coated material make up
the structure of the tyre. Information is
also provided on the type of materials
used.
11. Wear rate indicator. A tyre rated at 400 for
example, will last longer than a tyre rated at
200.

performance when stopping on a wet road
surface. The higher the grade, the better
the braking performance. The grades, from

TYRE CARE
Do not drive the vehicle if a tyre is
damaged, excessively worn, or
incorrectly inflated.
Avoid contaminating the tyres with
vehicle fluids as they may cause
damage to the tyre.
Avoid spinning the wheels. The forces
released can damage the structure of
the tyre and cause it to fail.
If wheel spin is unavoidable due to a
loss of traction (in deep snow for
example), do not exceed the 50 km/h
(30 mph) point on the speedometer.
Do not exceed the maximum pressure
stated on the sidewall of the tyre.
Note: Tyre condition should be checked after
the vehicle has been used off-road. As soon as
the vehicle returns to a normal, hard, road
surface, stop and check for damage to the
tyres.
All of the vehicle's tyres (including the spare)
should be checked regularly for damage, wear
and distortion. If you are in any doubt about the
condition of a tyre, have it checked immediately
by a tyre repair centre or a Dealer/Authorised
Repairer.
