Pressure of air in tyres (Address to Specifications).

You will find norms of pressure also in the tablet on a rack of a door of the driver. The tablet is visible at an open door.


Pressure check

Norms of pressure (address to Specifications) are resulted in a bar (superfluous pressure) for cold (i.e. having an ambient temperature) tyres.
At trailer towage the norms of the pressure concerning operation with raised loadings operate only.

Cars with the control of pressure of air in tyres (RDC) *:

After finishing of pressure to norm it is necessary to make active again system, address to Section the Monitoring system of pressure of air in tyres (RDC).

Regularly (is not more rare than two times a month) and before distant trips check pressure in tyres. The pressure deviation in tyres from norm can cause their damage and controllability infringement and by that to lead to failure.

Check also pressure in compact / spare колесе*. In a spare wheel the maximum pressure specified in Specifications should be supported.
