system or TPM is indicated, drive carefully with
reduced speed, especially on curves. The speed should
not exceed 60km/h. Lower the speed even further in
sharp curves. Rectify the fault as soon as possible.
Dual wheels
Use only tyres of the same type on dual mounted
wheels. The tyres may have max. 6 mm difference in
diameter.
Checking tyre pressure
Check the tyre pressures when refueling, or at least
every fortnight. Suit the pressures to the type of truck
and axle load, not to the technical maximum load.
Remember to also check the pressure in the spare tyre
occasionally.
Recommended tyre pressures
Follow the tyre manufacturer's recommendations.
If there is no recommendation, a temporary solution is
to use the tyre pressures in the diagram below.

Note!
The tyre pressures in the diagram
below are taken from ETRTO's
(European Tyre and Rim Technical
Organisation) standard manual. All
the larger tyre manufacturers are
members of ETRTO and use the
standard manual as a guide.
