—The tire must flex more if the
tire pressure is too low or if
the vehicle speed or load are
too high. This heats the tire up
too much. This increases the
risk of an accident because it
can cause the tire to burst and
result in loss of vehicle con-
trol.
—Incorrect tire pressure increas-
es tire wear and has a negative
effect on driving and braking

behavior, which increases the
risk of an accident.
@ Note
Replace lost valve caps to re-
duce the risk of damage to the
tire valves.

© For the sake of the envi-
ronment
Tire pressure that is too low in-
creases fuel consumption.
