Range Rover Evoque: Checking the tyre pressures
Tyre information label location.
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

under such conditions could result in
