Tire Safety - THOR Class C Series Owner's Manual

Tire Safety

Failure to follow proper inflation guidelines may result in tire failure, which, under
certain circumstances can cause loss of vehicle control or accidents that may result
in property damage, bodily injury, and/or death.
It is recommended that the tire pressure be checked at the beginning of each trip
to obtain the maximum life of the tire. Follow the instructions listed on the Federal
Certification label to determine the correct tire pressure.
Read and follow the instructions listed below before taking your first trip in your new motorhome!
• Proper care and maintenance of your motorhome tires is essential to ensure your safety, as
well as the safety of others, as you travel.
• Routine maintenance on your motorhome is important, but it cannot be overstated just how
critical proper tire maintenance is to the safety, operation and durability of your new vehicle.
• You must follow the manufacturer's inflation guidelines for maximum load capacity; under-
inflation is just as dangerous as over-inflation.
• To insure your motorhome tires are operating safely, regular inspection of your tires and
checking tire pressures is absolutely mandatory.
• Examine your motorhome tires frequently for unusual wear. Alignment, balance and
bearing wear will affect tire wear. Make sure to look for cracking, bulging, uneven tread
wear, etc.
