4.1 Wheels
On your rst drive with your motor home, please check that your
tyre bolts are still securely tightened after having driven 50 km
and, if necessary, tighten them with a torque of 160 Nm for 15"
wheel rims (steel and light metal) and 180 Nm for 16" wheel
rims (steel and light metal). After this, the tyre bolts should be
checked regularly that they are securely tightened.
4.2 Tyres
Use only tyres that have been entered in the vehicle's
documents. Other tyre sizes may only be used if they have been
permitted by the manufacturer of the basic vehicle.
