VEHICLE RANGE: recommendations (2/2)
Tyres
An under-inflated tyre increases energy
consumption. Comply with the speci-
fied tyre pressures for your vehicle.
When replacing them, you must use
tyres made by the same manufacturer,
with the same dimensions, type and
structure as the originals.
Please see the information on “Tyres”
in Section 5.
Use of electrical accessories
and equipment
In the event of freezing, manually
de-ice the windscreen (using a scraper)
to reduce usage of the de-icing/demist-
ing function and to save energy.
Please see the information on “Deicing,
demisting the windscreen” in Section 3.
The use of electrical accessories (GPS,
phone charger, etc.) reduces vehicle
range.
Vehicle loading
Avoid pointlessly overloading your ve-
hicle.
For safety reasons, the use
of tyres other than those
recommended by the man-
ufacturer is prohibited.
Failure to respect this recommen-
dation may adversely affect stability,
behaviour, braking or the play be-
tween the bodywork and the tyres...
Some of these effects may lead to
the loss of control of the vehicle
under certain driving conditions,
and lead to an accident and serious
injury.

TYRES (1/4)
Maintaining the tyres
The tyres must be in good condition
and the tread form must have sufficient
depth; tyres approved by our Technical
Department have wear warning strips 1
that are indicators moulded into the
tread at several points.
Tyre and wheel safetyThe tyres are the only contact between
the vehicle and the road, so it is essen-
tial to keep them in good condition.
You must make sure that your tyres
conform to local road traffic regulations. When the tread has worn down to the
wear warning strips,
these strips will
become visible: it is then necessary
to replace your tyres because the tread
rubber is now only 1.6 mm deep at
most, resulting in poor road holding
on wet roads.
An overloaded vehicle, long journeys –
particularly in very hot weather – or fre-
quent driving on poorly surfaced minor
roads will lead to more rapid tyre wear
and affect safety.
When they need to be re-
placed, only tyres of the
same make, size, type and
profile should be used.
Tyres fitted to the vehicle should
either be identical to those fitted
originally or conform to those
recommended by your approved
dealer.
Incidents which occur when
driving, such as striking the
kerb, may damage the tyres
and wheel rims, and could
also lead to misalignment of the
front or rear axle geometry. In this
case, have the condition of these
checked by an approved dealer.

The front and rear wheels
have different dimensions.
For safety reasons, it is not
permitted to switch the front
wheels with the rear wheels.

Fitting new tyres
Due to the special design of this vehi-
cle, please bear in mind the tyre speci-
fications as indicated:
A = Dimension, type and structure.
B = Brand
C = Commercial name
ABC
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must 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 regu-
lations;
– It may change the way it handles when cornering;
– heavy steering.
The tightening torque for the wheel
mounting bolts is 75 N.m.
The front and rear wheels
have different dimensions.
For safety reasons, it is not
permitted to switch the front
wheels with the rear wheels.
