F6 OWNER’S MANUAL

You should get your own tire pressure
gauge and use it whenever you check your
tire pressure. This will make easier for you
to judge if a pressure loss is due to a tire
problem and not due to a variation between
gauges.
Recommended tire pressure
Refer to the tire placard on driver’s
doorjamb for correct tire pressure.
When tire without inner tube is implanted, it
has self-closed function. However, leakage
usually very slow. So you should look for
the leakage position as long as the tire
begins to decrease pressure.
Inspection
Every time you check tire charging
condition, you should also examine the tires
for damage, foreign objects, and abrasion.
You should look for:
1
、 damage and bulges in the tread or side of
the tire. Replace the tire if you find either of
these conditions.
2
、 Cuts 、 splits or cracks in the side of tire.
Replace the tire if you see fabric or cord.
3
、 Excessive tread wear.
Your tires have wear marks molded into
tread. When the tread wears down, you will
see a band wide across the tread. This shows
there is less than 1.6mm of tread left on the
tire. A tire this worn gives very little
adhesive force on wet road. You should
replace the tire if you see three or more
tread wear marks.
