  3. Tell me where you’d find the information for the recommended tyre pressures for this car and how tyre pressures should be checked.
  4. (If the steering becomes heavy the system may not be working properly)
    Manufacturer’s guide (Sometimes in the inside of the fuel flap or one of the front doors) - use a reliable pressure gauge, check and adjust pressures when tyres are cold, don’t forget spare tyre, remember to refit valve caps..

     

  5. Tell me how you make sure your head restraint is correctly adjusted so it provides the best protection in the event of a crash.
  6. The head restraint should be adjusted so the rigid part of the head restraint is at least as high as the eye or top of the ears, and as close to the back of the head as is comfortable. Note: Some restraints might not be adjustable.

  7. Tell me how you’d check the tyres to ensure that they have sufficient tread depth and that their general condition is safe to use on the road.
  8. No cuts and bulges, 1.6mm of tread depth across the central three-quarters of the breadth of the tyre, and around the entire outer circumference of the tyre.

  9. Tell me how you’d check that the headlights and tail lights are working. You don’t need to exit the vehicle.
  10. Explain you’d operate the switch (turn on ignition if necessary), then walk round vehicle (as this is a ‘tell me’ question, you don’t need to physically check the lights)..

     

  11. Tell me how you’d know if there was a problem with your anti-lock braking system.
