TYRES (safety)
Tyre inflation pressures
Tyre inflation pressures must be
adhered to. (Remember to check the
emergency spare wheel at the same
time.) Inflation pressures must be
checked at least once a month and
always before a long journey. (Refer
to the section on “Tyre inflation
pressures”.)
Incorrect tyre pressures
lead to abnormal tyre
wear and unusually hot
running. Factors which
may seriously affect safety and
lead to:
- poor roadholding
- possibility of blow-outs or of
throwing a tread at high speed.
Inflation pressures depend on
the load and the driving speed.
Adjust the pressures according
to the conditions of use. (Refer to
the section on tyre inflation
pressures.)
Inflation 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
inflation pressures cannot be
checked when the tyres are cold,
take into account an increase of 0.2
to 0.3 bar.
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Note: A label (depending on
country or version) stuck on the
edge or frame of the driver’s door
gives the recommended tyre
inflation pressures.
Replacing tyres
For safety reasons, this
operation must only 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
regulations.
- It may change the way it
handles when cornering.
- It may cause the steering to be
heavy.
- It may cause tyre noise.
- It may affect the use of chains.
Changing wheels around
This practice is not recommended.
Emergency spare wheel
Refer to the information on the
emergency spare wheel and
instructions on how to change a
wheel in section 5.
