NOKIAN TYRES’ AND NOKIAN HEAVY TYRES' TELEPHONE NUMBERS WILL CHANGE ON 8 JUNE 2007

Nokian Tyres’ and Nokian Heavy Tyres' numbers will change on Friday, 8 June 2007. The new number system will improve employee availability and remove overlapping solutions.

New numbers

The new Nokian Tyres phone numbers will be of the format +358 10 401 7xxx. The last four numbers – the extensions – will remain unchanged, only the beginning of the direct dialling-in numbers changes.

The new switchboard number is +358 10 401 7000. The switchboard will operate in the same manner as before, except that after the change it will also serve Vianor in Finland. Calls placed to the old switchboard number will be automatically converted to the new number for one year. In the summer of 2008 calls will no longer be converted, but the callers will hear a recording informing them of the new numbers.

Callers who dial the old direct dialling-in numbers after 8 June 2007 will hear a recording informing them of the number change, but the calls will not be automatically converted to the new numbers.

Fax numbers will change correspondingly to the phone numbers, except in the following cases:
