Information sticker for tyre pressure
Only use those tyres designated in the registration documents.
Other tyre sizes may only be used with the permission of the ma-
nufacturer.
• Check tyres regularly to ensure that the tread is worn down
evenly; check tread depth; check for external damages.
• Always use the same make and model of tyres (summer or
winter tyres).
• Drive carefully on new tyres for a stretch of approx. 100 km to
enable them to develop a full road grip.
Only one tyre size is now entered in the motor vehicle registration
certificate, Parts I and II. This must not necessarily correspond
with the size of the tyres mounted on the vehicle. Should you have
any queries, please contact your dealer.
Rules for checking tyre pressure:
• Check and fix tyre pressure every four weeks (but at least every
three months) and before every drive.
• If driving on low tyre pressure is unavoidable (i.e., from the
campsite to the nearest service station) you should drive at a
maximum speed of 20 km/h.
• Tyres must be checked when they are cold.
Rules for tyre pressure:
- correct tyre pressure
- tyre pressure too low
- tyre pressure too high

Due to the type of construction, the tyres on caravans
with a tandem axle may wear out more quickly.

If the tyre pressure is too low, the tyre can overheat.
This can result in serious damage.
Please refer to the table on tyres/tyre pressure in the
chapter on "Technical Data" or the labels in the gas
bottle container as well as on the hub caps for the
correct tyre pressure.
