TYRES
(continued)
Tyre pressures
Tyre pressures must be adhered to.
(Remember to check the spare
wheel at the same time.) Pressures
must be checked at least once a
month and always before a long
journey. (Refer to the section on
Tyre pressures.)
Incorrect tyre pressures
lead to abnormal tyre
wear and unusually hot
running, factors which
may seriously affect safety and
lead to:
- poor roadholding
- the risk of blow-outs or of
throwing a tread at high speed.
Tyre pressures depend on the
load and the driving speed.
Adjust the pressures according
to the conditions of use. (Refer to
the section on tyre pressures.)
Pressures should be checked when
the tyres are cold; ignore higher
pressures which may be reached in
hot weather or following a journey
at higher speeds.
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are
cold , assume an
increase of 0.2 to 0.3 bar.
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Note: a label affixed to the driver's
door frame gives the recommended
tyre pressures.
Fitting new tyres
For safety reasons, this
operation must only be
carried
out by a
specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
- It may mean that your vehicle
no longer conforms to current
regulations.
- It may change the way it
handles when cornering.
- It may cause the steering to be
heavy.
- It may cause tyre noise.
- It may affect the use of chains.
Rims
Only use rims approved for your
vehicle.
Consult your Renault
Dealer.
Changing wheels around
This practice is not recommended.
Spare wheel
The use of this wheel is subject to
restrictive
conditions. See the
information on the Spare wheel.
