Technical data
C. Manufacturer's label.
The vehicle may be originally equipped
with tyres with higher load and speed
indices than those indicated on the label,
without affecting inflation pressure.
This tamperproof label on the middle door
pillar, right or left-hand side, contains the
following information:
-
-
the name of the manufacturer,
the European Whole Vehicle Type Approval
number,
-
-
the vehicle identification number (V.I.N.),
the maximum authorised weight (gross
vehicle weight),
the maximum authorised weight with trailer
(gross train weight),
Checking tyre pressures
The tyre pressures should be checked when
cold at least monthly.
-
-
-
the maximum front axle weight,
the maximum rear axle weight.
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 31 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.
D. Tyre/paint label.
Never reduce the pressure of a warm tyre.
This label on the middle door pillar, driver's
side, contains the following information:
-
-
the tyre pressures, unloaded and loaded,
the tyre sizes (including the load index and
speed rating for the tyre),
Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption.
-
-
the spare tyre inflation pressure,
the paint colour code.
