Tyre Pressure; Tyre Placard; Tread Depth - HOLDEN TM BARINA Owner's Handbook Manual

Tyre pressure

Keep the tyres at the recommended
pressures to avoid increased fuel
consumption, uneven and premature
tyre wear.
The correct pressures are shown
on the tyre placard and in the tyre
pressure table. See Tyre pressure
on page 254.
• Tyre pressure should be checked
when cold as tyre pressure will
increase as the tyres warm up.
• Check the air pressure of tyres
(including the spare) weekly, to
ensure occupant safety, as well
as reducing fuel consumption and
increasing the life of the tyres.
• Replace any valve dust caps or
extensions.

Tyre placard

The correct pressures for tyres are
shown on the tyre placard in the
passenger's door frame.
Always inflate the spare tyre
to the pressure specified for
maximum load.
Vehicle care

Tread depth

Check tread depth at regular
intervals.
• Replace the tyres when:
They are worn to the point where
the tread wear indicators (TWI)
appear.
The tyres originally fitted to the
vehicle have built in TWI. These
show as plain bars across the
tread pattern at regular intervals
across the tyre.
