Range Rover Evoque: Checking the tyre pressures

Tyre information label location.

Tyre information label location.

checked Tyre pressures should be checked regularly using an accurate pressure gauge, when the tyres are cold.

The following procedure should be used to check and adjust the tyres pressures.

1. Remove the valve cap.

2. Firmly attach a tyre pressure gauge/inflator to the valve.

3. Read the tyre pressure from the gauge and add air if required.

4. If air is added to the tyre, remove the gauge and re-attach it before reading the pressure. Failure to do so may result in an inaccurate reading.

5. If the tyre pressure is too high, remove the gauge and allow air out of the tyre by pressing the centre of the valve. Refit the gauge to the valve and check the pressure.

6. Repeat the process, adding or removing air as required, until the correct tyre pressure is reached.

7. Refit the valve cap.

 Tyre valves

Keep the valve caps screwed down firmly to prevent water or dirt entering the valve. Check the valves for leaks when checking the tyre pressures.

 Punctured tyres

Do not drive the vehicle with a punctured tyre. Even if the punctured tyre has not deflated, it is unsafe to use, as the tyre may deflate suddenly at any time.

 Replacement tyres

Do not fit cross ply tyres. Do not fit tubed tyres. Do not rotate tyres around the vehicle. If the use of tyres not recommended by Land Rover is unavoidable, ensure that you read and fully compl
