Higher speed motoring

Tires:

Adjust the tire inflation pressures to
specification. Low tire inflation pressures
will result in overheating and possible
failure of the tires.
Avoid using worn or damaged tires which
may result in reduced traction or tire fail-
ure.
✽ ✽ NOTICE
Never exceed the maximum tire inflation
pressure shown on the tires.

WARNING
• Underinflated or overinflated
tires can cause poor handling,
loss of vehicle control, and sud-
den tire failure leading to acci-
dents, injuries, and even death.
Always check the tires for proper
inflation before driving. For prop-
er tire pressures, refer to section
9, "Tires and wheels".
• Driving on tires with no or insuffi-
cient tread is dangerous. Worn-
out tires can result in loss of
vehicle control, collisions, injury,
and even death. Worn-out tires
should be replaced as soon as
possible and should never be
used for driving. Always check
the tire tread before driving your
car. For further information and
tread limits, refer to section 7,
"Tires and wheels".

Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil:

High speed travel consumes more fuel
than urban motoring. Do not forget to
check both engine coolant and engine
oil.

Drive belt:

A loose or damaged drive belt may result
in overheating of the engine.
