Ford Fiesta: General Information / Wheel and Tire Health and Safety Precautions. Description and Operation

  WARNING: Never inflate a tire that has been run flat without first removing the tire from the wheel to inspect for damage. A damaged tire can fail during inflation. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury.

  WARNING: Do not mount tube-type tires on tubeless wheels or tubeless tires on tube-type wheels. Incorrect combinations could result in tire separation from wheel and may result in serious injury to vehicle occupant(s).

  WARNING: Cracked wheels can be dangerous. Deflate tires on cracked wheels prior to removal of wheels from the vehicle. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury.

  WARNING: Retighten wheel nuts within 160 km (100 mi) after a wheel is reinstalled. For dual rear wheel (DRW) only, a second retightening is required within 800 km (500 mi). Wheels can loosen after initial tightening. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious injury to vehicle occupant(s).

  WARNING: Always match the tire size to the wheel size during assembly. Incorrect matching can result in tire bead damage or tire separation from the wheel. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury to technician or vehicle occupant(s).

  WARNING: Do not weld or peen wheels. A wheel needing such repairs must have a new wheel installed. Failure to follow these instructions may result in wheel failure and serious personal injury.
