Special note concerning fully laden
vehicles (Maximum Permissible All-Up

(100 kph) and the tyre pressure in -
creased by 0.2 bar.
Please refer to the information on
“Weights” in Section 6.

Refer to the information on “Tyres” in

of chains.

Label A
Open the door to read it.
Tyre pressures should be checked
when the tyres are cold.
If the tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, increase the
pressures from 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 pSI).
never deflate a hot tyre.
B : dimension of the tyres fitted to the
vehicle.
When they need to be replaced, only tyres of the same make, size, type
and profile should be used on a single axle.
t yres fitted to the vehicle should either be identical to those fitted
originally or conform to those recommended by your approved
dealer.

Tyres (tyre and wheel safety, use in winter)
tYreS
Maintaining the tyres
The tyres must be in good condition
and the tread form must have sufficient
depth; tyres approved by our Technical
Department have wear warning strips 1
that are indicators moulded into the
tread at several points.
t yre and wheel safety
The tyres are the only contact between
the vehicle and the road, so it is essen-
tial to keep them in good condition.
You must make sure that your tyres
conform to local road traffic regulations. When the tyre tread has been eroded
to the level of the warning strips,
they
become visible 2: it is then necessary
to replace your tyres because the tread
profile is no more than 1.6 mm deep
and this causes poor road holding
on wet roads .
An overloaded vehicle, long journeys
by motorway, particularly in very hot
weather, or continual driving on poorly
surfaced minor roads will lead to more
rapid tyre wear and affect safety.
When they need to be re -
placed, only tyres of the
same make, size, type and
profile should be used.
t yres fitted to the vehicle should
either be identical to those fitted
originally or conform to those
recommended by your approved
dealer.
Incidents which occur when
driving, such as striking the
kerb, may damage the tyres
and wheel rims, and could
also lead to misalignment of the
front or rear axle geometry. In this
case, have the condition of these
checked by an approved dealer.

use in winter
chains
For safety reasons, fitting snow
chains to the rear axle is strictly for-
bidden.
chains cannot be fitted to tyres which
are larger than those originally fitted to
the vehicle.
Snow or Winter tyres
We would recommend that these be
fitted to all four wheels to ensure that
your vehicle retains maximum adhe -
sion.
Warning: These tyres sometimes have
a specific direction of rotation and a
maximum speed index which may be
lower than the maximum speed of your
vehicle.
Studded tyres
This type of equipment may only be
used for a limited period and as laid
down by local legislation. It is neces -
sary to observe the speed specified by
current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be
fitted to the two front wheels.
Chains may only be fitted
to tyres of the same size
as those originally fitted to
your vehicle.
If your vehicle is originally fitted
with tyres with a diameter of 17”,
snow chains may be used (but only
specific chains). Consult an ap -
proved dealer.
In all cases, we would recommend
that you contact an approved dealer
who will be able to advise you on
the choice of equipment which is
most suitable for your vehicle.
changing wheels around
This practice is not recommended.
Vehicles fitted with the
tyre pressure monitor
Each of the sensors incor -
porated in the valves is ded-
icated to a single wheel: under no
circumstances should you swap the
wheels, without having the system
reset.
There is a risk of incorrect informa-
tion which could have serious con -
sequences.
