4. Wheels and tyres 27
4.3 Tyre pressure
The following applies when checking tyre pressure:
•
Check and correct the tyre pressures every four weeks
(but at least every three months) and before every journey.
•
You should only check tyre pressures when the tyres are
cold.
•
If checking or correcting the pressure of a warm tyre, the
pressure must be 0.3 bar higher than for a cold tyre.
•
If driving on low tyre pressure is unavoidable (i.e., from the
campsite to the nearest service station) you should drive
at a maximum speed of 20 km/h.
Never drive faster than 50 km/h.
Do not use snow chains on snow-free roads.
Snow chains can only be fitted to wheels and tyres that are
the same sizes as originally fitted to the vehicle.
Snow chains may only be mounted on the front drive
wheels; it is strictly forbidden to mount snow chains on
the rear wheels.
Any wheel trims must be removed before putting on snow
chains.
