Tyres (03_08)
Check the tyre pressure and wear periodically (roughly every 500 km). Tyres feature
wear indicators; replace tyres as soon as these indicators become visible on the tyre
tread. Also check that the tyres do not show signs of splitting at the side or irregular
tread wear; if this occurs, go to an authorised workshop or at least to a workshop
equipped to perform the replacement.
CAUTION
TYRE PRESSURE SHOULD BE CHECKED WHEN TYRES ARE COLD.INCOR-
RECT TYRE PRESSURE CAUSES ABNORMAL TYRE WEAR AND MAKES RID-
ING DANGEROUS.
TYRES MUST BE REPLACED WHEN THE TREAD REACHES THE WEAR LIMITS
SET FORTH BY LAW.
WARNING
THE WHEELS FITTED WITH TYRES SHOULD ALWAYS BE BALANCED. RIDING
THE VEHICLE WITH VERY LOW TYRE PRESSURE OR WITH INCORRECTLY
BALANCED TYRES CAN LEAD TO DANGEROUS STEERING VIBRATIONS.
