| A multi-lingual friend of mine translated the tire pressure chart for me.
He pointed out that French always comes first on the chart, then Dutch, then
German.

Once translated, the information in the table is pretty straightforward to
understand:
 | Cold tire pressures (in kilograms per square centimeter) are given for
half-loaded and fully-loaded Corvair Monzas and Corsas |
| For sustained high-speed driving (150 - 175 kilometers per hour), the tire
pressures should be increased by 0.3 or 0.5, depending on the type of road |
On the Transtronics Pressure
Conversion page I found that 1 Kg/Cm2 = 14.223 Lb/In2.
It's interesting to note that the same blank chart was apparently used for
any GM product assembled in Belgium--the model and pressures were written in by
hand for each car! (Clearly, this was a low-production operation.) |
