pressure. See the 'Specifications' section for the recommended tyre pressures.

correctly and that the lenses are clean.

and top up if necessary with oil of the correct grade.

coolant. Top-up if necessary with coolant containing the required percentage
of anti-freeze. Any significant coolant loss should be investigated by your

necessary with the specified brake fluid from a new unopened container.
