Wear of tyres

  • Check your tyre pressures regularly (at least once a month). Do this when the tyres are "cold".
  • Perform servicing regularly (in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions).
  • Accelerate calmly and remain alert.
  • Brake calmly and in good time before taking a bend.
  • Avoid bumping against the kerb and similar obstacles. Invisible damages may cause a tyre blow-out later. Hitting obstacles can affect the alignment of the wheels. This will adversely affect the vehicle's behaviour on the road and is likely to result in premature wear and tear of the tyres.
  • When manoeuvring into and out of parking spaces, do not turn the steering wheel while the vehicle is stationary.
