MAINTENANCE
TYRES
Tyres
Check for inflation and condition of
your car tyres periodically.
Inflation :
Check the pressure in the tyres
when they are cold.
You should have your own tyre
pressure gauge and use it at all
times. This makes it easier for you
to tell if pressure loss is caused by
a tyre problem and not by variation
between gauges.
Keeping the tyres properly inflated
gives you the best combination of
comfort, handling, tyre life and better
fuel efficiency.
Over inflation of tyres makes the car
ride bumpy and harsh. Tyres are
more prone to uneven wear and
damage from road hazards.
Under inflated tyres reduce your
comfort in car handling and are

3. Overinflation : Excessive
Centre Tread Wear
prone to failures due to high
temperature. They also cause
uneven wear and more fuel
consumption.
CAUTION
Every time you check inflation
pressure, you should also
examine tyres for damage, foreign
objects and wear.
Recommended Tyre Pressures
Tyres size :
Front 135/70R12
Rear 155/65R12
Spare 135/70R12
Tyre pressure :
Front 26 - 28 psi (1.7-1.9 bar)
Rear 28 - 30 psi (1.9-2.1 bar)
Spare 28 - 30 psi (1.9-2.1 bar)
CAUTION
Replace the tyre if you find either
of these conditions.
•
Bumps or bulges in the tread
or the side of the tyre.
•
Cuts, splits or cracks in the
side of the tyre. Replace the tyre
if you notice this on the fabric
or cord.
•
Excessive tread wear or non
uniform tyre wear.
•
The wear indicators appear
between the tread grooves
when tread depth is 1.6mm or
less.
•
Always dispose of worn tires
according to local environment
regulation.
