This label is affixed to the driver's door
aperture.
It bears the following information on the tyres:
-
t
he tyre pressures, unladen and laden,
-
t
he reference, size, type, load index and
speed rating,
-
t
he spare tyre pressure.
It also indicates the paint colour code.
B.
V
ehicle identification number (VIN),
on the dashboard.
The number is on a label, visible through the
windscreen.
Never reduce the pressure of a warm
tyre.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption.
Different visible markings for the identification of your vehicle.
Checking tyre pressures
The tyre pressures should be checked when
cold at least monthly.
The pressures given on the label are valid for
cold tyres. If you have driven for more than
10 minutes or more than 6 miles (10 kilometres)
at more than 30 mph (50 km/h), the tyres will be
warm; in this case 0.3 bar (30 kPa) should be
added to the pressures given on the label.
C. Manufacturer's label.
This self-destructing label is affixed to the right-
hand door aperture.
It bears the following information:
-
t
he name of the manufacturer,
