G
Have the direction of tire rotation correct-
ed, if reversed, as soon as possible at an
authorized Sprinter Dealer. The vehicle
handling characteristics could otherwise
be affected.
Warning
G
Loose wheel nuts or bolts could cause the
vehicle to lose a wheel while it is in mo-
tion. This would jeopardize the operating
and road safety of the vehicle. You could
lose control of the vehicle as a result,
cause an accident and injure yourself or
others.
If new or repainted wheels are mounted,
the wheel bolts or wheel nuts must be re-
tightened again after approximately 600
to 3000 miles (about 1000 to 5000 km).
