Notes on adjusting the lights when driving abroad
It is not necessary to adjust the headlamps. The
legal requirements are also met in countries in
which traffic drives on the other side of the road.
Notes on regularly inspecting wheels and tyres

tyres
Damaged tyres can cause tyre pressure loss.
Check the tyres regularly for signs of
#
damage and replace any damaged tyres
immediately.
