warning RENAULT TWIZY 2017 1.G Owner's Manual

5.3
TYRES (2/4)
Tyre pressures
Respect the tyre pressures, checking
them at least once a month and before
any long journeys.
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 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Use in winter
The use of snow or winter tyres signifi-
cantly reduces the vehicle range.
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
pressure based on the user condi-
tions.
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.
Snow or Winter tyres
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.
You must use tyres made by the same
manufacturer, with the same dimen-
sions, type and structure.
Chains
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.
For safety reasons, the use
of chains is strictly forbid-
den.

TOWING, BREAKDOWN (2/3)
In the event of an energy
fault: towing
In the event of a fully discharged trac-
tion battery:
– warning light
\b flashes on the in-
strument panel;

truck or tow the vehicle using the tow
eye, following the instructions below.

sory functions are supplied: the vehi-

lation for towing must always be ob-
served.
