8-22 Maintenance and do-it-yourself

If you have
aflat tyre, see “Flat tyre” in the “6. In
case of emergency” section.
TYRE INFLATION PRESSURE
Periodically check the pressure of the tyres, includ-
ing the spare. An incorrect tyre pressure may ad-
versely affect tyre life and vehicle handling. The tyre
pressure should be checked when tyres are COLD.
Tyres are considered COLD after the vehicle has
been parked for 3ormore hours, or driven less than
1.6 km (1 mile). COLD tyre pressures are shown on
the tyre placard.
Insufficient pressure can lead to an overheating of
the tyre and subsequent internal damage. At high
speeds, this could result in tread separation and
even bursting of the tyre.
TYPES OF TYRES
CAUTION
When changing or replacing tyres, be sure all
four tyres are of the same type (that is, summer,
all season or snow) and construction. An ap-
proved dealer or qualified workshop may be able
to help you with information about tyre type, size,
speed rating and availability.
Replacement tyres may have alower speed rating
than the factory equipped tyres, and they may not
match the potential maximum vehicle speed. Never
exceed the maximum speed rating of the tyre. All season tyres
RENAULT specifies all season tyres on some mod-
els to provide good performance all year, including
snowy and icy road conditions. All season tyres are
identified by ALL SEASON and/or M&S on the tyre
sidewall. Snow tyres have better snow traction than
all season tyres and may be more appropriate in
some areas.
Summer tyres
RENAULT specifies summer tyres on some models
to provide superior performance on dry roads. Sum-
mer tyre performance is substantially reduced in
snow and ice. Summer tyres do not have the tyre
traction rating M&S on the tyre sidewall.
If you plan to operate your vehicle in snowy or icy
conditions, RENAULT recommends the use of snow
or all season tyres on all four wheels.
Snow tyres
If snow tyres are needed, it is necessary to select
tyres equivalent in size and load rating to the original
equipment tyres. If you do not, it can adversely af-
fect the safety and handling of your vehicle.
Generally, snow tyres have lower speed ratings than
factory equipped tyres and may not match the po-
tential maximum vehicle speed. Never exceed the
maximum speed rating of the tyre. If you install snow
tyres, they must be the same size, brand, construc-
tion and tread pattern on all four wheels.
