Disposal

Inflating the tube
1) Ensure that the valve is positioned perpendicularly for proper positioning of the tube and tyre in the region of
the valve.
2) Firmly screw on the valve nut.
3) Inflate the tube so that the tyre can still be pressed in easily with your thumb.
INFORMATION: If the circumferential lines on the two sides of the tyre are both at an even distance
from the rim, the tyre is centred. If not, let some air out and realign the tyre.
4) Inflate the tube to the maximum pressure specified by the tyre manufacturer (see information printed on the tyre
sidewall).
5) Firmly screw the valve cap onto the valve.
