WHEELS
AND TYRES
TYRE PRESSURE
Every two weeks and before long
journeys, check the pressure of each
tyre including the spare.
The pressure must be checked when
the tyre is rested and cold.
It is normal for the pressure to rise
when you are driving. If you have to
check or restore the pressure when the
tyres are warm, remember that the
pressure value must be 0.3 bar above
the specified value.
Incorrect pressure causes uneven
wear of the tyres
(fig. 7)
:
A
- Correct pressure: tyre wears
evenly.
B
- Underinflated tyre: shoulder
tread wear.
C
- Overinflated tyre: centre tread
wear.
Tyres must be replaced when the
tread wears down to 1.6 mm. Comply
with the laws in the country where the
car is being driven.
IMPORTANT
As far as possible avoid sharp brak-
ing and screech starts.
Be careful not to hit the kerb, pot-
holes or other obstacles hard. Driving
for long stretches over bumpy roads
can damage the tyres.
Periodically check that the tyres
have no cuts in the side wall, abnor-
mal swelling or irregular tyre wear. If
any of these occur, have the car seen
to at a
LANCIA Dealership
.
Avoid travelling with an overloaded
car: this can seriously damage wheels
or tyres.
Remember that road-
holding is also influenced
by correct tyre pressure.

If the pressure is too low
the tyre overheats and this
can cause it serious dam-
age.
