Pressure (ZP) tires are supplied as original equipment, refer to the vehicle
owner’s manual for complete details on the low tire pressure warning
system designed to alert you in the event of a low pressure condition.

(ZP) TIRES ARE
TO BE USED ONLY IN CONJUNCTION WITH AN OPERATIONAL, MICHELIN
APPROVED, LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM. Otherwise, all
provisions of the limited warranty are void. For a list of approved systems,
see your Michelin tire retailer, or call 1-800-847-3435. NOTE: Some
MICHELIN Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires can only be mounted on
special SH-M (Symmetric Hump - Modified) wheels. These tires bear the
special SH-M designation, molded into the sidewall of the tire, next to the
ZP designation. DO NOT MOUNT A TIRE WITH THE SH-M DESIGNATION ON
THE SIDEWALL ON A STANDARD WHEEL. DOING SO VOIDS THIS LIMITED
WARRANTY AND COULD CAUSE THE TIRE TO BECOME UNSERVICEABLE
AT LOW OR ZERO PRESSURE, RESULTING IN SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY OR DEATH. NOTE: PAX SYSTEM TIRES ARE TO BE USED ONLY IN
CONJUNCTION WITH AN OPERATIONAL, TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM (TPMS), APPROVED BY THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER FOR USE
WITH THE PAX SYSTEM. Otherwise, all provisions of the limited warranty
are void. For a list of approved systems, see your authorized PAX System
retailer, or call 1-877-PAX TIRE or 1-877-729-8473. For all types of tires,
consult your vehicle owner’s manual or the tire information placard that
came on your vehicle for recommended operating pressures. If the tires are
purchased as replacement tires, operating instructions for the low pressure
warning system will be provided by the manufacturer of that system.
Recommended operating pressures will be provided by a Michelin tire
retailer for self supporting ZP tires. Recommended operating pressure for
PAX System Tires will be provided by a PAX System retailer. These inflation
pressures must be maintained as a minimum. However, do not exceed the
maximum pressure rating indicated on the tire sidewall.

TIRES/SELF-SUPPORTING
ZERO PRESSURE (ZP) TIRES CHECK INFLATION
PRESSURES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE FOLLOWING A
LOW PRESSURE WARNING
The PAX System
TM
requires a functioning, correctly calibrated
onboard vehicle tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) to monitor
the air pressure and alert the driver when a low pressure event
occurs. Be certain to ensure that your vehicle’s Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) is functioning and is correctly calibrated.
Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual or your vehicle dealer. Low
pressure warning systems are designed to alert the driver to a low air
pressure situation in at least one tire on the vehicle. While your ZP tires
are designed to provide continued mobility in the event of an air loss, the
sooner you respond to a warning and take corrective action, the greater the
likelihood that the tire can be returned to service. Always visually inspect
your MICHELIN PAX System tire and Self-Supporting tires and use
a pressure gauge to check the air pressure in all 4 tires following
any low pressure warning (unless advised to do otherwise by the
manufacturer of your low pressure warning system.) If the tire
pressure is at or below 18 PSI, proceed to the nearest Authorized
PAX System Retailer for PAX

tires or a Michelin tire retailer for ZP
tires (or a representative of your vehicle manufacturer if advised to
do so in your vehicle owner’s manual) and have the tire demounted
