Tyre Pressure - Vauxhall 2007 Vectra Operating & Safety Manual

Fitting new tyres
Fit tyres in pairs or in sets, which is even
better. Ensure that tyres on one axle are
z the same size,
z the same design,
z the same make,
z and have the same tread pattern.
Fit directional tyres such that they roll in the
direction of travel. The rolling direction is
indicated by a symbol (e.g. an arrow) on
the sidewall.
Tyres fitted opposing the rolling direction
(e.g. when a tyre is changed) should be
refitted as soon as possible. This is the only
way to obtain full benefit from the design
properties of the tyre.

Warning
We recommend that you have your tyres
changed by your Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer, who will be familiar with the
requirements of the law as regards
disposal of tyres and can thus help to
protect the environment and your health.

Some brands of tyres have a beaded edge
for alloy wheels to protect against
damage. If wheel trim is used on steel
wheels with beaded-edge tyres, the
following procedure must be followed:
z Use wheel trims and tyres that are
approved by Vauxhall for the vehicle in
question and therefore meet all the
requirements pertaining to the
respective wheel/tyre combination.
z If the wheel trims and tyres used are not
Vauxhall-approved, the tyres must not
have a beaded edge.

Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel trims
could lead to sudden loss of air and
thereby accidents.

Warning
Check tyre pressures, including the spare
wheel, at least every 14 days and prior to
any long journey; the tyres should be
checked when cold. Don't forget to check
the spare.
Use the valve cap key to make unscrewing
the valve caps easier. The key is located on
the inside of the tank flap.
