Introduction
“Run Flat” tires (optional)
The vehicle can be fitted with “Run
Flat” tires. This kind of tire is equipped
with reinforced sidewalls which
permit the vehicle to continue
traveling at moderate speed (50 mph -
80 km/h), even in the event of a
puncture, for a set distance.
When the control panel receives the
“punctured tire” information from the
tire pressure ECU, it monitors the
residual tire life by showing a warning
signal in the relevant area on the
display after 31 mi. (50 km) and 62 mi.
(100 km).
After 75 mi. (120 km), the warning not
to continue will be displayed.
For further information on the display,
please refer to chapter: “Tire pressure
monitoring system” on page 47.
WARNING: Always comply with the
specified wheel alignment values, as
this is fundamental to obtain the best
performance from and the longest life
of your tires.
Towing the vehicle
The vehicle has not been designed,
developed or homologated to be used
as a towing vehicle (e.g., trailers,
caravans, etc.) and nothing may be
loaded on the roof; fitting structures
such as bars or roof-racks may damage
the vehicle.
