Vauxhall Combo Manuel Du Propriétaire

Some brands of tyres have a beaded edge 

for alloy wheels to protect against 

damage. If a wheel trim is used on steel 

wheels with beaded-edge tyres, comply 

with the following: 
z The use of wheel trims and tyres that 

Vauxhall has approved for the vehicle 

and therefore fulfil all requirements for 

the relevant combination of wheels and 

tyres.

z If the wheel trims and tyres used are not 

Vauxhall-approved, the tyres must not 

have a beaded edge. 

Check tyre pressure, including the spare 

wheel, at least every 14 days and prior to 

any long journey; the tyres should be 

checked when cold. Don’t forget to check 

the spare 3.

Use the valve cap key to make unscrewing 

the valve caps easier. The key is located on 

the inside of the tank flap. 
Tyre pressures – see pages 205, 206. 
Do not reduce tyre pressure when the tyres 

are warm. Otherwise the pressure may 

drop below the permissible minimum when 

the tyres cool down. 
After having checked the tyre pressure, 

tighten the valve caps using the valve cap 

key.

Incorrect inflation pressures will impair 

safety, vehicle handling, comfort and fuel 

economy and will increase tyre wear. 
Pressure that is too low can result in 

considerable tyre warm-up and internal 

damage, leading to tread separation and 

even to tyre blow-out at high speeds.
Hidden tyre damage is not eliminated by 

adjusting the tyre pressure.

Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel trims 

could lead to sudden loss of air and 

thereby accidents.

Incorrect tyre pressure could lead to a flat 

tyre.
