Inflate the inner tube

1)  Ensure that the valve is upright in order to achieve a good fit of inner tube and tyre in the valve area. 

2)  Screw on the valve nut firmly.

3)  Inflate the inner tube until the tyre can still be depressed with your thumb.

INFORMATION If the indicator line has the same distance to the edge of the wheel rim all around and on
both side, the tyre is seated centrically. If not, let some air out and realign the tyre.

 

4)  Inflate the inner tube to the maximum pressure indicated by the tyre manufacturer (see sidewall of tyre).

5)  Screw the dust cap firmly onto the valve.
