Only inter change the front and rear
wheels if the wheels and tyres ha vethe

di.er:
R front wheels wear more on the tyre shoulder
R rear wheels wear more in the centre of the
tyre
Do not drive with tyres that ha vetoo little tread
dep th. This signi/cantly reduces traction on wet
ro ads (aquaplaning).
On vehicles with the same front and rear wheel
size, you can inter change the wheels every

WARNING
ARNING Risk of an accident due to
va pour poc kets form ing in the brake sys-
tem
The brake 0uid constantly absorbs moisture
from the air. This lo wersthe boiling point of
th e brake 0uid. If the boiling point is too lo w,
va pour poc kets may form inthe brake system
when the brakes are applied hard.
This impairs the braking e.ect. Te
