254Vehicle careGSi with Michelin Pilot Super Sport orPilot Sport 4 S tyres
This model is factory-fitted with high
performance sports tyres, which have
a reduced performance at low
temperature.9 Danger
Use winter tyres at temperatures
below 0 °C, otherwise damage of
the high performance sports tyres
is possible.
Tyre designations
E.g. 215/60 R 16 95 V

Speed code letter:
Q:up to 100 mphS:up to 112 mphT:up to 118 mphH:up to 130 mphV:up to 150 mphW:up to 168 mph
Choose a tyre appropriate for the
maximum speed of this vehicle. Refer
to the EEC Certificate of Conformity
provided with the vehicle or other national registration documents.
Optional equipment could reduce the
maximum speed of the vehicle.
Directional tyres
Directional tyres should be mounted so that they rotate in the correct
direction. The proper rotation
direction is indicated by a symbol (e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.
Tyre pressure
Check the pressure of cold tyres at
least every 14 days and before any
long journey. Do not forget the spare
wheel.
This also applies to vehicles with tyre pressure monitoring system.
Tyre pressure 3 291.
The tyre pressure information label
on the left door frame indicates the
original equipment tyres and the
correspondent tyre pressures.
The tyre pressure data refers to cold
tyres. It applies to summer and winter tyres.
Always inflate the spare tyre to the
pressure specified for full load.
The ECO tyre pressure serves to
achieve the smallest amount of fuel
consumption possible.
Make sure tyre loading setting
matches the current tyre pressure.
Tyre loading 3 255.
