Checklist before off-road driving

Tires: Check the tread depth and maintain specified
tire pressure (see tire pressure label inside the fuel

remove foreign objects. The valve caps must be
mounted.

Rims: Dented or bent rims can cause tire pressure
loss and damage the tire beads. For this reason
change rims before driving off-road.
