Tyre safety and use of snow chains
Refer to the information on “Tyres” in Section 5 for the servicing conditions and, depending on the\
version, the use of chains.
(1) Special note concerning vehicles used fully laden (maximum permissible all-up weight) and towing a trailer.
The maximum speed must be limited to 60 mph (100 km/h) (48 mph (80 km/h) for van versions) and the tyre pressure in-
creased by 0.2 bar.
Refer to the information on “Weights” in Section 6.

tyrEs (2/3)
Pressures should be checked when the
tyres are cold; ignore higher pressures
which may be reached in hot weather
or following a fast journey.
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, the normal
pressures must be increased by 0.2 to
0.3 bar (or 3 P
si).

positioned on the valve before adding

Refer to the information on “Puncture”
and “Changing a wheel” in Section 5.
t yre pressuresRespect the tyre pressures (including
the emergency spare wheel). Check
them at least once a month and before
a long journey (refer to the label on the
edge of the driver’s door).
incorrect  tyre  pressures
lead to abnormal tyre wear
and unusually hot running.
These are factors which
may seriously affect safety and lead
to:
–

poor road holding;
– risk of bursting or tread separa -
tion.
The pressure depends on the load
and the speed of use. Adjust the
pressures according to the condi-
tions of use (refer to the information
on “Tyre pressures”).
Please be aware that a
poorly tightened or miss-
ing valve cap can make the
tyres less airtight and lead
to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to
those fitted originally and tighten
them fully.
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
–

may mean that your vehicle no
longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
–

it may change the way it handles
when cornering;
–

it may cause the steering to be
heavy;
–

It may affect the use of snow
chains.

If one of the front tyres is punctured,
it is essential to fit one of the rear

We would recommend that these be
fitted to all four
 wheels to ensure that
your vehicle retains maximum adhe-
sion.
Warning : These tyres sometimes have
a specific direction of rotation and a
maximum speed index which may be
lower than the maximum speed of your
vehicle.
s

tudded tyres
This type of equipment may only be
used for a limited period and as laid
down by local legislation. It is neces-
sary to observe the speed specified by
current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be
fitted to the two front wheels.
In all cases, we would recommend
that you contact an approved dealer
who will be able to advise you on
the choice of equipment which is
most suitable for your vehicle.
