Checking the tyre pressure
SIMPLY LIGHT features pneumatic tyres as standard� In order to keep rolling
resistance to an absolute minimum, you should check the tyre pressure at regu-
lar intervals� The tyres are standardly equipped with automobile valves, so you
can check the pressure by using the tyre gauge at your local petrol station�
The required filling pressure is printed on the tyres and is also specified in the
"technical data" section of these instructions�
To check the tyre pressure, please proceed as follows:
Apply the parking brake (see section 6�8�1)
Unscrew the valve cap from the valve by turning it anti-clockwise�
Press the tyre gauge nozzle firmly onto the valve�
Correct the tyre pressure to the specified value�
Remove the tyre gauge nozzle from the valve�
Screw the valve cap onto the thread of the valve (clockwise)�
Repeat the operation until you have checked all tyres�
If necessary, release the parking brake (see section 6�8�2)�
