When the indicators appear in two or more adjacent
grooves, tire replacement is recommended.
NOTE : The mark and the location of the tire wear
indicator are different depending on tire manufacturers.
Tire rotation
To equalize wear and help extend tire life, DaimlerChrysler
recommends that you rotate your tires at the mileage speci-
fied on the scheduled maintenance chart.
However, the timing for tire rotation may vary according to
your vehicle condition, road surface conditions and each
individual driver’s driving habits. Any time you notice
unusual wear, rotate your tires as soon as possible.
When rotating tires, check for uneven wear, damage and
wheel alignment. Abnormal wear is usually caused by incor-
rect tire pressure, improper wheel alignment, out-of-balance
wheel or severe braking. Consult an authorized dealer to
determine the cause of irregular tread wear.
The first rotation is the most important to achieve more
uniform wear for all tires on the vehicle.
