WARNING
Tyres with pressure that is too low can
overheat and burst as a consequence. In
addition, they also suffer from irregular
wear, which can severely impair the brak-
ing properties and the driving character-
istics. There is a risk of accident.
Avoid
tyre
pressures that are too low in all
the tyres, including the spare wheel.
G
WARNING
Damaged tyres can cause tyre inflation
pressure loss. As a result, you could lose
control of your vehicle. There is a risk of
accident.
Check
the
tyres regularly for signs of dam-
age and replace any damaged tyres imme-
diately.
