Open the driver’s door to read it.

Tyre pressures should be checked when the tyres are cold.

If the tyre pressures cannot be checked when the tyres are cold, increase the pressures from 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI). Never deflate a hot tyre.

Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure loss warning system

In the event of underinflation (punctures, underinflation etc.), the warning light on the instrument panel comes on. Please refer to the information on the “Tyre pressure loss warning” in Section 2.

For your safety, please respect the speed limit.

When they need to be replaced, only tyres of the same make, size, type and profile should be used on a single axle.

They must: either have a load capacity and speed rating at least equal to those of the original tyres, or conform to those recommended by an authorised dealer.

Failure to heed these instructions could endanger your safety and affect your vehicle’s roadworthiness.

Risk of loss of control of the vehicle.

Zone B: tyre pressures for the front wheels (non-motorway).

Zone C: tyre pressures for the rear wheels (non-motorway).

Zone D: tyre pressures for the front wheels (motorway).
