TYRES(continued)
Tyre inflation pressures
Tyre inflation pressures must be
adhered to. (Remember to check the
emergency spare wheel at the same
time.) Inflation pressures must be
checked at least once a month and
always before a long journey. (Refer
to the section on Tyre inflation
pressures).
Incorrect tyre pressures
lead to abnormal tyre
wear and unusually hot
running. Factors which may
seriously affect safety and lead
to:
- poor roadholding
- possibility of blow-outs or of
throwingatreadathighspeed.
Inflation pressures depend on
the load and the driving speed.
Adjust the pressures according
to the conditions of use. (Refer to
the section on tyre inflation
pressures).Pressures should be checked when
the tyres are cold; ignore higher
pressures which may be reached in
hot weather or after driving at high
speeds.
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres arecold,assume an
increase of0.2to0.3bar (3PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Note:a label (depending on country
or version) affixed to the edge or
frame of the driver's door gives the
recommended tyre pressures.
Replacing tyres
For safety reasons, this
operation must only be
carried out by a
specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
- It may mean that your vehicle
no longer conforms to current
regulations.
- It may change the way it
handles when cornering.
- It may cause the steering to be
heavy.
- It may cause tyre noise.
- It may affect the use of chains.
Changing wheels around
This practice is not recommended.
Emergency spare wheel
Refer to the information on the
emergency spare wheel and
instructions on how to change a
wheel in section 5.
