Caution
Using liquid sealants can damage
the tyre valves and tyre pressure
monitor sensors in the run-flat
tyres. This damage is not covered
by the vehicle warranty. Do not
use liquid sealants in run-flat
tyres.
Summer Tyres
This vehicle may come with high
performance summer tyres. These
tyres have a special tread and
compound that are optimised for
maximum dry and wet road
performance. This special tread and
compound will have decreased
performance in cold climates, and
on ice and snow. We recommend
installing winter tyres on the vehicle
if frequent driving at temperatures
below approximately 5°C (40°F) or
on ice or snow covered roads is
expected. See Winter Tyres on
page 10-35.
Tyre Pressure
Tyres need the correct amount
of air pressure to operate
effectively.
{
Caution
Neither tyre underinflation nor
overinflation is good.
Underinflated tyres, or tyres
that do not have enough air,
can result in:
.
Tyre overloading and
overheating which could
lead to a blowout.
.
Premature or
irregular wear.
.
Poor handling.
.
Reduced fuel economy.

Caution (Continued)
Overinflated tyres, or tyres
that have too much air, can
result in:
.
Unusual wear.
.
Poor handling.
.
Rough ride.
.
Needless damage from
road hazards.
The Tyre and Loading
Information label on the vehicle
indicates the original equipment
tyres and the correct cold tyre
inflation pressures . The
recommended pressure is the
minimum air pressure needed to
support the vehicle's maximum
load carrying capacity.
