Tyre pressure
Check ty re pressures, including the spare
wheel, at least ev ery 14 day s and prior to
any long journey; the ty res should be
check ed when cold. Don't forget to check
the spare.
Use the v alve cap key to make unscrewing
the valve caps easier. The key is located on
the inside of the tank flap.
Tyre pressure – see pa ge 243 and the
adhesive foil on the insid e of the fuel tank
flap. H ave adhesive foil replaced after
changing to different tyre size.
Do not reduce tyre pressure when the ty res
are warm. Otherwise the pressure m ay
drop below the permissible minim um when
the ty res cool down.
After having checked the ty re p ressures,
tighten the valve caps using the valve cap
key.
Incorrect infla tion pressures will imp air
safety, v ehicle handling, comfort and fuel
economy and will increase tyre wear.
If the pressure is too low, this can result in
considera ble ty re warm -up and internal
damage, leading to trea d separation and
even to tyre blow-out at high sp eeds.
Hidden ty re d amage is not eliminated by
adjusting inflation p ressure.
Incorrect ty re p ressure can lead to tyre
rupture.
Tyre condition, wheel condition

pressed against the edge of the kerb.
C heck ty res regularly for d amage (foreign
