5.8.2 Tyre Types
There are three different types of tyres or inner tubes,
and specific points must be observed for the replacement
of each type. The individual types of tyres can be easily
distinguished:
•
Pneumatic tyres have black valve caps.
•
Puncture-protected tyres have red valve caps.
•
Puncture-proof tyres have no valves.
There are five chapters about tyre repair and wheel
replacement:

page 27
•

•
5.8.8 Replacing Tyres, page 28
deals with tube repair
and replacing solid tyres.
Not all chapters are necessarily contained in this
manual.
Specific tightening torques for wheels and rim
halves are listed in
