| The tyre pressure must be checked regularly. We recommend checking the tyre pressure every two weeks. The correct tyre pressure is especially important on long trips or when carrying a heavy load. A sporty driving style also requires correct or even slightly increased tyre pressure. |
| Slow loss of tyre pressure |
| The slow loss of tyre pressure is especially problematic because even experienced drivers often do not notice it. |
| Insufficient tyre pressure and the related increase in flexing (internal friction) cause the tyre material to heat up considerably and may lead to the separation of the various components and rubber compounds. |
| In the end, the tyre is usually destroyed completely → Chapter. |
| The cause for the slow pressure loss cannot always be determined because the tyre is severely damaged and structural components of the tyre are missing. |
