The vehicle may be originally equipped
with tyres with higher load and speed
indices than those indicated on the label,
without affecting inflation pressure.
Checking tyre pressures
The tyre pressures should be checked when
cold at least monthly.
The pressures given on the label are valid for
cold tyres. If you have driven for more than
10 minutes or more than 6 miles (10 kilometres)
at more than 31 mph (50 km/h), the tyres will be
warm; in this case 0.3 bar (30 kPa) should be
added to the pressures given on the label.
Never reduce the pressure of a warm tyre.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption.
C. Manufacturer's label.

pillar, right or left-hand side, contains the
following information:
-
t
he name of the manufacturer,

t
he maximum authorised weight (gross
vehicle weight),
-
t
he maximum authorised weight with trailer
(gross train weight),
-
t
he maximum front axle weight,
-
t
he maximum rear axle weight.
D. Tyre/paint label.
This label on the middle door pillar, driver's
side, contains the following information:
-
t
he tyre pressures, unloaded and loaded,
-
t
he tyre sizes (including the load index and
speed rating for the tyre),
-
t
he spare tyre inflation pressure,
-
t
he paint colour code.
