IMPORTANT
Take the following precautions to prevent damage to the tyres:
❒
avoid braking suddenly, racing starts and violent impact against the
curb, potholes or other obstacles and driving for extended periods
on uneven road surfaces;
❒
periodically check that the tyres have no cuts in the side wall,
abnormal swelling or irregular tyre wear;
❒
avoid travelling with the car overloaded. If you puncture a tyre, stop
immediately and replace it;
❒
change the position of the tyres every 10-15 thousand kilometres,
keeping them on the same side of the car to avoid inverting the
direction of rotation;
❒
tyres age even if they are not used much. Cracks in the tread and on
the sidewalls are a sign of ageing. Have the tyres checked by
specialised personnel if they have been fitted for longer than 6
years. Remember to check the space-saver wheel very carefully;
❒
In the case of replacement, always fit new tyres, avoiding those of
dubious origin;
❒
if a tyre is replaced, also replace the inflation valve.
Remember that the road holding qualities of your car
also depend on the correct inflation pressure of the
tyres.
If the pressure is too low the tyre overheats and can be
seriously damaged.
Do not cross switch the tyres, moving them from the
right of the car to the left and vice versa.
Never submit alloy rims to repainting treatments
requiring the use of temperatures exceeding 150°C.
The mechanical properties of the wheels could be
impaired.
