General
Observe:
Check the tyres regularly (every 2 weeks) for equal tread wear, tread depth
and external damage.
Replace tyres at the latest, when the minimum depth of tread stipulated by
law is reached.
Z
The tyres are part of the base vehicle. Information regarding tyre pressure
can be found in the instruction manual of the base vehicle.
Z
The vehicles are not equipped with a spare wheel. As standard, a tyre
repair kit is included for inflating the flat tyre with foam.
X
Check tyre pressure before a journey or every 2 weeks. Wrong tyre
pressure causes excessive wear and can lead to damage or even to tyre
burst. You can lose control of the vehicle (see section 13.5).
Z
Check the tyre pressure on cold tyres. Do not reduce the higher tyre pres-
sure when the tyres are warm.
Z
Tubeless tyres have been installed on the vehicle. Never install tubes in
these tyres.
Z
Read the instruction manual for the base vehicle.
Z
Depending on the base vehicle and model the vehicles are only equipped
with tyre repair kit as standard.
Z
In the case of a puncture, pull over to the side of the road. Make vehicle
safe with a hazard warning triangle. Switch on the warning lights.
Z
Tyres must not be older than 6 years as the material will become brittle
over time. The four-digit DOT number (Fig. 87,1) on the tyre flank indicates
the date of manufacture. The first two digits designate the week, the last
two digits the year of manufacture.
Example:
Week 07, year of manufacture 2014.
