Checking a tire life
WARNING
If  any  tires   that  are  over  6   years
based on the manufacturing date, tire
strength   and  performance   decline
with  age  naturally (even  if  the  tires
are   not   used   like  a   spare   tire).
-
Tire Temperature
A tire more than 6 years old may
cause  separation   of  the  cord
layers inside  the tire leading  to
loss   of  vehicle   or  a   serious
injury. Therefore,  make sure  to
check  the  manufacturing   date
and  replace   the  old  tire  in   6
years after  the tire  manufactur-
ing date.
The  temperature  grade for  the
tire  on  your   vehicle  is  estab-
lished for  a tire that is  properly
inflated   and   not   overloaded.
Excessive   speed,   underinfla-
tion,    or    excessive    loading,
either separately or in combina-
tion,  can  cause   heat  build-up
and  possible  sudden  tire   fail-
ure.This can cause loss of vehi-
cle control and serious injury or
death.
Therefore,
the
tires
should
be
replaced  by new  ones including  the
spare tire. You can find  the manufac-
turing date on the tire sidewall (possi-
bly only  on the  inside of  the wheel),
which has DOT marking. DOT is seri-
al numbers on  tires, which consist of
a   combination    of    numbers   and
English  letters.  You  can  check  the
manufacturing  date  to  the  last  four
position of the DOT.
DOT : XXXX XXXX OOOO
The front  part  of the  DOT  means a
plant   code  number,   tire  size   and
tread pattern  and the  last four  num-
bers  indicate week  and  year manu-
factured.
For example ;
DOT  XXXX  XXXX  1602 represents
that the tire was produced in the 16th
week of 2002.
