* When operating at sustained high speeds the tyre pressures should be increased as follows: `H' `V' `W' and `ZR' speed rated tyres ‐ increase tyre pressures by 0,1 bar (1,5 lb/in2 ) for every 10 km/h (6 mph) above 160 km/h (100 mph) up to 190 km/h (118 mph). In addition for every10 km/h (6 mph) above 190 km/h (118 mph), add a further 0,2 bar (3 lb/in2 ) up to 210 km/h(130 mph)

NOTE:

Normally laden tyre pressures apply when the vehicle is loaded with up to three persons or the driver plus 170 kg.

NOTE:

Fully laden tyre pressures apply when the vehicle is loaded in excess of the normal condition and up to the maximum rated loaded condition.

NOTE:

Normal usage is defined as usage on all roads at all speeds where high speed is not sustained.

NOTE:

The tyre pressures shown above should be used when the tyre is cold, i.e. when approximately at ambient temperature (not warm to the touch as is usual after operation).

NOTE:

When operating at sustained high speed, the tyre pressures must be increased by the amounts indicated above.

Winter Tyres
Always fit winter tyres to all four wheels. Do not exceed the maximum speed specified by the tyre manufacturer.
When using winter tyres, the tyre pressures supplied by the tyre manufacturer must be adhered to.
Snow Chains
Snow chains with small links must be used.
Snow chains must be fitted to the driving wheels.
Snow chains must be fitted to only 195/65 R15 and 205/60 R15 tyres.
When snow chains are fitted do not exceed 50 km/h (30 mph).
