If you use any tire/wheel combination not recommended by Ford Motor

Company, it may adversely affect vehicle handling and could cause

steering, suspension, axle or transfer case failure as well as the increased

risk of loss of vehicle control.

Do not use “aftermarket lift kits” or other suspension modifications,

whether or not they are used with larger tires and wheels.

These “aftermarket lift kits” could adversely affect the vehicle’s handling

characteristics, which could lead to loss of vehicle control or rollover and

serious injury.

Tires can be damaged during off-road use. For your safety, tires that are

damaged should not be used for highway driving because they are more

likely to blow out or fail.

You should carefully observe the recommended tire inflation pressure

found on the safety compliance certification label attached to the left

front door lock facing or door latch post pillar. Failure to follow tire

pressure recommendations can adversely affect the way your vehicle

handles. Do not exceed the Ford Motor Company recommended pressure

even if it is less than the maximum pressure allowed for the tire.

Each day before you drive, check

your tires. If one looks lower than

the others, use a tire gauge to check

pressure of all tires, and adjust if

required. Check tire pressure with a

tire gauge every few weeks

(including spare). Safe operation

requires tires that are neither

underinflated nor a vehicle which is

overloaded.

Periodically inspect the tire treads and remove stones, nails, glass or

other objects that may be wedged in the tread grooves. Check for holes

or cuts that may permit air leakage from the tire and make necessary

repairs.

Inspect the tire side walls for cuts, bruises and other damage. If internal

damage to the tire is suspected, have the tire demounted and inspected

in case it needs to be repaired or replaced.
