General
information
Inspect
your
tires
regularly
for

road
surfaces,
aswell
as
debris,
curbs
and
other
obstacles
cancause
serious
damage
to
wheels,
tires
and
sus#j
pension
parts.
This
is
more
likely
to
occur
with low-profile
tires,
which
provide
less
cushioning
between
the
wheel
and
the
road.
Be
careful
to
avoid
road
hazards
and
reduce
your
speed,
es#j
pecially
if
your
vehicle
is
equipped
with
low-pro#j file
tires.
Indications
of
tire
damage
or
other
vehicle
mal#j
functions:
'xUnusual
vibrations.'xUnusual
tire
or
running
noises.'xUnusual
handling
such
as
a
strong
tendency
to
pull
to
the
left
or
right.
Damage
can
be
caused
by
the
following
situa#j
tions,
for
instance:
'xDriving
over
curbs.'xRoad
damage.'xTire
pressure
too
low.'xVehicle
overloading.'xIncorrect
tire
storage.
Safety
information
Warning
Damaged
tires
can
lose
tire
inflation
pressure,
which
can
lead
to

There is
a
risk
of

If
tire
damage
is
suspected
while
driving,
immediately
reduce
speed
and
stop.
Have
wheels
and
tires
checked.
For
this
purpose,

Tires
can
become
damaged
by
driving
over

have
a
smaller
tire
cross- section.
The
smaller
the

cross-section,
thehigher
the
risk
of
tire
damage.
There
may
be
a
risk
of

Safety
information
Warning
Wheels
and
tires
which
are
not
suitable
for
your vehicle
can
damage
parts
of
the
vehicle,
for
in#j
stance
due
to
contact
with
the
body
due
to
tol#j
erances
despite
the
same
official
size
rating.
There
is
a
risk
of
an
accident.
The
manufac#j
turer
of
your
vehicle
strongly
suggests
that
you
use

type.
Warning
Mounted
steel
wheels

to
the
brake
discs.
There
is
a
risk
of
accident.
Do
not
mount
steel
wheels.
Warning
Incorrect
wheel/tire
combinations
will
impair
the vehicle's
handling
characteristics
and
a
variety
of
system
functions,
such
as
the
Antilock
Brak#j
ing
System
(ABS)
or

manu#j
facturer
for
your
vehicle
type.
Following

tion
remounted
on
the
vehicle
as

recommends
certain
tire
brands.
The
tire
brands
can
be
identified
by
a
star
on
the
tire
sidewall.
New
tires Tire
traction
is
not
optimal
due
to
production-re#jlated
circumstances
when
tires
are
brand-new.
Drive
conservatively
for
the
first
200
miles/300
km.
Retreaded
tires
Warning
Retreaded
tires
can
have
different
tire
casing structures.
With

can
be
limited.
There
is
a
risk
of
an
accident.
The

Winter
tires General
information Winter
tires
are
recommended
for
operating
on
winter
roads.
Although
so-called
all-season
tires
with
M+S identification
provide
better
winter
traction
than
summer
tires,
they
usually
do
not
provide
the
same
level
of
performance
as
winter
tires.
Safety
information
Warning
If
the
vehicle
is
equipped
with
an
M
Sport
dif#j ferential
and
all-weather
tires
on
19
inch
rims,
this
can
alter
handling,
for
instance
the
vehicle
may
skid.
There
may
be
a
risk
of
accident
or risk
of
damage
to
property.
If
the
vehicle
is
equipped
with
an
M
Sport
differential,
do
not
fit
all-weather
tires
on
19
inch
rims.
Maximum
speed
of
winter
tires
If
the
maximum
speed
of
the
vehicle
is
higherthan
the
permissible
speed
for
the
winter
tires,
then
attach
a
label
showing
the
permissible
maxi#j mum
speed
in
the
field
of
vision.
The
label
is
available
from
a
dealer's
service
center
or
an#j other
qualified
service
center
or
repair
shop.
With
winter
tires
mounted,
observe
and
do
not
exceed
the
permissible
maximum
speed.
Changing
runflat
tires When
changing
from
run-flat
tires
to
standard

it
must
be
ensured
that
the
vehicle
contains
a
compact
spare
tire
("donut")
or
tire
mobility
kit.
