WARNING: Tyre pressures must be checked with the tyres cold, as the pressure is about 0.2 bar, 32 lbf/in higher at running temperature. If the vehicle has been parked in the sun or high ambient temperatures, DO NOT reduce the tyre pressures, move the vehicle into the shade and wait for the tyres to cool before checking the pressures.
WARNING: Always use the same make and type of radial-ply tyres, front and rear. DO NOT use cross-ply tyres, or interchange tyres from front to rear. If the wheel is marked ’TUBELESS’, an inner tube must NOT be fitted.
