Tyre inflation pressures
gauge
1. Take out the tyre inflation pressure
gauge. Refer to “Tools, jack and jack
handle”
2. Remove the valve cap (A).
Be careful not to lose the valve cap.
3. Clean the area around the tyre valve
(B).
4. Press the tyre inflation pressure
gauge (C) straight onto the tyre valve.If the tyre inflation pressure gauge is
angled (not straight) relative to the tyre
valve, air will leak and accurate
measurement will not be possible.
5. Read the tyre inflation pressure from
the scale on part (D) of the tyre inflation
pressure gauge.Example: tyre inflation pressure of
210 kPa
One side of the scale shows the
pressure in kPa. The other side shows
the pressure in kgf/cm
2.
6. Repeat the measurement a few times
to obtain an accurate pressure
indication.
7. After taking the measurement,
securely fit the valve cap.

181)If the tyres have arrows (A) indicating
the correct direction of rotation, swap the
front and rear tyres on the left hand side of
the vehicle and the front and rear tyres on
the right hand side of the vehicle separately.
Keep each tyre on its original side of the
vehicle. When fitting the tyres, make sure
the arrows point in the direction in which
the wheels will turn when the vehicle moves
forward. Any tyre whose arrow points in the
wrong direction will not perform to its full
potential.
182)Avoid the combined use of different
types of tyres. Using different types of tyres
can affect vehicle performance and safety.
183)If winter tyres with a lower speed
rating than that indicated in the Registration
Document are used, do not exceed the
maximum speed corresponding to the
speed rating of the tyres used.
184)Do not fit snow traction device (Tyre
chains) before you need them. This will
wear out your tyres and the road surface.
185)After driving around 100-300 metres,
stop and retighten the snow traction device
(Tyre chains).
186)Care should be taken with extremes of
steering lock to prevent possible contact
between the chains and the vehicle body.
187)Drive cautiously and do not exceed
50 km/h. Remember that preventing
accidents is not the purpose of snow
traction device (tyre chains).
188)When tyre chains are installed, take
care that they do not damage the disc
wheel or body.189)An aluminium wheel can be damaged
by a snow traction device (Tyre chains)
while driving. When fitting a snow traction
device (Tyre chains) on an aluminium wheel,
take care that any part of the snow traction
device (Tyre chains) and fitting cannot be
brought into contact with the wheel.
190)When installing or removing a tyre
chain, take care that hands and other parts
of your body are not injured by the sharp
edges of the vehicle body.
191)Install the chains only on the rear tyres
and tighten them as tightly as possible with
the ends securely fastened.
