Tires

Adjust the tire inflation pressures to
specification. Low tire inflation pressures
will result in overheating and possible
failure of the tires.
Avoid using worn or damaged tires which
may result in reduced traction or tire fail-
ure.

NOTICE

Never exceed the maximum tire inflation
pressure shown on the tires.

Fuel, engine coolant and engine oil

High speed travel consumes more fuel
than urban motoring. Do not forget to
check both engine coolant and engine
oil.

Drive belt

A loose or damaged drive belt may result
in overheating of the engine.

WARNING

• Underinflated or overinflated

tires can cause poor handling,
loss of vehicle control, and sud-
den tire failure leading to acci-
dents, injuries, and even death.
Always check tires for proper
inflation before driving. For prop-
er tire pressures, refer to “Tires
and wheels” in section 8.

• Driving on tires with no or insuffi-

cient tread is dangerous. Worn-
out tires can result in loss of
vehicle control, collisions, injury,
and even death. Worn-out tires
should be replaced as soon as
possible and should never be
used for driving. Always check
the tire tread before driving your
car. For further information and
tread limits, refer to “Tires and
wheels” in section 7.
