TYRE INFLATION PRESSURE
SPECIFICATIONS
The brand, type and size of the specific tyres for
this vehicle are given on page 97 (SPECIFICA-
TIONS).
TYRE PRESSURE
For the tyre pressures see page 97 (SPECIFICA-
TIONS).
The right tyre pressure ensures that the ve-
hicle is in the best conditions for:
- better rideability;
- better driveability;
- longer tread life;
- better roadholding.
Underinflation of the tyre results in:
- irregular wear;
- poorer driveability and roadholding;
- higher fuel consumption;
- possibility of bursting (due to increase in
working temperature).
Overinflation of the tyre results in:
- irregular wear;
- poorer driveability and roadholding;
- jeopardised rideability and comfort.
CHECKS
For the maintenance intervals, see page 75 (PE-
RIODIC MAINTENANCE CHARTS), under:
- Tyres;
- Tyre pressure;
- Wheels/Tyres.
Check tyre wear and pressure (at ambient tem-
perature) before and after every long journey
and as described in the SPECIFICATIONS.
NOTE:
ambient temperature of the tyre means
that the vehicle has been stationary for at least
three hours or that it has travelled in this time a
distance of no more than 2 km (1 mi).
If there is no choice but to check the pressure
after having travelled many kilometres, remem-
ber that the measured values are 30-40 kPa (0.3-
0.4 bar) higher than those measured at ambient
temperature. This is normal, so do not deflate
the tyres to obtain the recommended values
(valid for ambient temperature), otherwise the
tyre pressure will be insufficient.
NOTE:
if possible always use the same pressure
gauge to check the pressure, so as not to risk
wrong values caused by the variability between
different gauges.
If you note a loss of pressure, carefully check the
tyre and try to find the point from where the air
is leaking.
At every pressure control, check for:
- damage, wear, foreign matter lodged in the
tread.
Check very carefully for:
- bulging on the tread or the sidewall of the
tyre. If present, the tyre must be changed;
- sidewall cracks, cuts or slits. If present or if
the fabric breaker is visible, the tyre must be
changed;
- an excessively smooth tread.
NOTE:
certain types of tyres have wear indica-
tors; several types exist. Speak to the dealer,
who can give you information also regarding the
methods of checking wear.
TREAD DEPTH
The minimum depth of the tread must be:
- 4 mm (front and rear);
- 2 mm (front and rear);
in any case not less than the value laid down
by the laws in force in the country where the
vehicle is used.
CAUTION
If the tyre is worn or if any puncture in
the tread area is larger than 5 mm, the
tyre must be changed.
CHANGING A TYRE
When changing a tyre, use the type and
model recommended by the manufacturer.
The use of other than recommended tyres
could jeopardise the driveability and stabil-
ity of the vehicle with consequent danger of
accidents and risk of serious injury and even
death.
Replacements, repairs and maintenance are very
important, require experience and must be car-
ried out with the appropriate tools.
For this reason it is recommended going to a
FANTIC MOTOR Dealer or a specialised tyre re-
pairer for the above procedures.
