Tire condition
It will cause tire hidden wound if you
drive on the cliff border, you will find
it later, and the tire has the possibility
of leakage.
You should be driving cautiously and
slowly on uneven road surface (at a
suitable angle if possible). Do not let
the tires press concave and convex
edge, while you stop the car.
Check the tires regularly for damage
such as impurities, leakage, cuts
splits and lateral convex, tire damage
can result in the possibility of
blowouts. Check the rims to see
whether or not they are damaged. If
any damage or abnormal wear is
found, contact your Chery
Authorized Service Station for
consultation.
Abnormal wear is usually caused by
incorrect tire pressure, failure to
rotate tires, improper wheel
alignment, out-of-balance tires,
severe braking and harmful driving
habit.
The tires on your Chery have built-in
tread wear indicators to help you
know when the tires need
replacement. When the tread depth
wears to a certain degree, the
indicator will appear in two or more
adjacent grooves, the indicator‘s
position will be shown through
longitudinal marks of the tires.
For safety, we recommend you
replace the tires if the tread
longitudinal wear down below
approximate 1mm of indicator mark.
Chery recommends at least both of
the front or rear tires be replaced at a
time as a set. When replacing the tire,
use only the same size and
construction, the same type and tread,
as originally installed.
