Highway driving
Tyres
Adjust the tyre inflation pressures to
specification. Low tyre inflation pres-
sures will result in overheating and
possible failure of the tyres.
Avoid using worn or damaged tyres
which may result in reduced traction
or tyre failure.
✽✽
NOTICE
Never exceed the maximum tyre
inflation pressure shown on the
tyres.
Fuel, engine coolant and engine
oil
High speed travel consumes more
fuel than urban motoring. Do not for-
get to check both engine coolant and
engine oil.
Drive belt
A loose or damaged drive belt may
result in overheating of the engine.
WARNING
• Underinflated or overinflated
tyres can cause poor han-
dling, loss of vehicle control,
and sudden tyre failure lead-
ing to accidents, injuries, and
even death. Always check
tyres for proper inflation
before driving. For proper tyre
pressures, refer to “Tyres and
wheels” in chapter 8.
• Driving on tyres with no or
insufficient tread is danger-
ous. Worn-out tyres can result
in loss of vehicle control, col-
lisions, injury, and even death.
Worn-out tyres should be
replaced as soon as possible
and should never be used for
driving. Always check the tyre
tread before driving your car.
For further information and
tread limits, refer to “Tyres
and wheels” in chapter 7.
