CAUTION
l
After changing the tyre and driving the ve-
hicle about 1.000 km (620 miles), retight-
en the wheel nuts to make sure that they
have not come loose.
l
If the steering wheel vibrates when driv-
ing after changing the tyre, we recom-
mend you to have the tyres checked for
balance.
l
Do not mix one type of tyre with another
or use a different size from the one listed.
This would cause early wear and poor han-
dling.
