Land Rover Defender: Tire pressure label
The recommended tire pressures are listed
on a label located in the driver's door
opening.
These pressures provide optimum ride
and handling characteristics for all normal
operating conditions.
The label contains the following
information:
- The maximum number of occupants,
divided between the front and rear of
the vehicle.
- The vehicle's capacity weight, which
includes the weight of the driver,
passengers, and cargo.
- Cold inflation pressures for the front,
rear, and spare tires.
- The size of the tires with which the
vehicle was originally equipped.
Note: The labels must not be changed,
even if different wheels and tires are fitted
at a later stage.
TIRE VALVES
Do not twist or bend the tire valves
when attaching a pressure hose or
gauge. Doing so may cause damage,
leading to tire failure. Death or serious
injury may result.
Keep the tire valve caps screwed down
firmly to prevent water or dirt from
entering the valve. Check the valves for
leaks when checking the tire pressures.
Do not use metal valve caps, as these can
corrode onto the valve threads and be
difficult or impossible to remove.
