MAINTENANCE
• If the vehicle is to be stored for a lengthy time, please
move your vehicle at least once in two weeks to ‘rotate
the tyres'.
• Check the pressure of tyres regularly when they are
cold.
• Avoid cornering at excessive speed.
• Regularly check tyres for abnormal wear patterns.
These following factors may affect the tyre life.
Tyre Pressure
Incorrect pressure will cause the abnormal wear of the
tyre, greatly shorten the service life, and have an adverse
effect on the driving characteristics of the vehicle. Tyre
pressure should be checked at least once a month, and
once prior to each long-distance journey.
Driving Style
Excessively harsh acceleration and braking
（
you may hear
a piercing noise) or driving at high speed whilst cornering
will increase the wear of tyre.
Wheel Balance
The working balance of auto-wheels is well tested before a
new vehicle comes out of the factory. But the wheels may
be out of balance due to many factors.
If wheels are out of balance, shaking or vibration of the
steering mechanism may occur and the tyres may be
excessively worn. It is important to rectify this quickly.
Each wheel should be rebalanced after installing a new tyre
or having the tyre repair.
Wheel Alignment
Incorrect wheel alignment can cause excessive tyre wear
and affect vehicle safety. If the tyres show signs of abnormal
wear, seek advice from an MG Authorised Repairer.
Caring for Your Tyres
DEFECTIVE TYRES ARE DANGEROUS!
DO NOT drive if any tyre is damaged, is
excessively worn, or is inflated to an incorrect
pressure.
