Inflation Pressure

Tyres are the only contact between your vehicle and the road. Inflation pressure is an extremely important factor affecting safety driving performances, mileage and fuel consumption. Both under-inflation and over-inflation can negatively affect your tyre performance level: it is therefore always important to maintain the correct pressure.

Please note that the recommended inflation pressure is the value given by the vehicle manufacturer and this can be found in the vehicle owners manual. Inflation pressure checks should be made only when tyres are cold. Tyres are considered to be cold when they have not been run for at least one hour or have only been run at low speed for not more than two or three kilometers. Check tyre pressures frequently (at least once a month) and always before long journeys, not forgetting the spare tyre!
