WARNING - Tyre age
Maximum permissible inflation
pressure
The tread wear  grade is a compara-
tive rating based on  the wear rate of
the tyre when tested under controlled
conditions  on   a  specified   govern-
ment test course. For example, a tyre
graded  150 would  wear  one-and-a-
half times  (1½)  as well  on the  gov-
ernment  course   as  a  tyre  graded
100.
This number  is the greatest  amount
of air pressure  that should be  put in
the tyre. Do not exceed the maximum
permissible inflation pressure.  Refer
to the  Tyre and Loading  Information
label   for    recommended    inflation
pressure.
Tyres  degrade over  time,  even
when they  are  not being  used.
Regardless   of   the  remaining
tread,  it  is  recommended  that
tyres   generally    be   replaced
after  six   (6)  years   of  normal
service. Heat caused  by hot cli-
mates or  frequent high  loading
conditions  can   accelerate  the
aging process. Failure to  follow
this Warning  can result in  sud-
den  tyre   failure,  which   could
lead to a  loss of control and an
