Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Note:
Vehicles with a tyre repair kit are not
equipped with a vehicle jack or a wheel
brace.
It is recommended to use a workshop type
hydraulic jack for changing between
summer and winter tyres.
Note: Use a jack with a minimum lifting
capacity of 1.5 tonnes and a lifting plate with
a minimum diameter of 80 millimetres (3.1
inches). Vehicles without tyre repair kit
Your vehicle jack, wheel brace, screw-in
towing eye and wheel trim remover are
located in the spare wheel well.
Jacking and lifting points CAUTION
Use only the specified jacking points.
If you use other positions, you may
damage the body, steering,
suspension, engine, braking system or the
fuel lines. Emergency use only

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine USING WINTER TYRES
CAUTION
Make sure that you use the correct
wheel nuts for the type of wheel the
winter tyres are fitted to.
If winter tyres are used, make sure that the
tyre pressures are correct. See Technical
Specifications (page 209).
USING SNOW CHAINS
WARNINGS
Do not exceed 50 km/h (30 mph).
Do not use snow chains on snow-free
roads.
Only fit snow chains to specified
tyres. See Technical
Specifications (page 209).
CAUTION
If your vehicle is fitted with wheel
trims, remove them before fitting
snow chains.
Note:
The ABS will continue to operate
normally.
Only use snow chains of 10 millimetre or
smaller.
Only use snow chains on the front wheels.
Vehicles with stability control
(ESP)
Vehicles with stability control (ESP) may
exhibit some unusual driving
characteristics which can be reduced by
switching traction control off. See Using
Stability Control (page 145). TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM WARNINGS
The system does not relieve you of
your responsibility to regularly check
the tyre pressures.
The system will only provide a low
tyre pressure warning. It will not
inflate the tyres.
Do not drive on significantly
under-inflated tyres. This may cause
the tyres to overheat and fail.
Under-inflation reduces fuel efficiency, tyre
tread life and may also affect your ability
to drive the vehicle safely. CAUTIONS
Do not bend or damage the valves
when you are inflating the tyres.
Have tyres installed by properly
trained technicians.
The Deflation Detection System will alert
you if there is a change of air pressure in
any tyre. It does this by using the ABS
sensors to detect the rolling circumference
of the wheels. When the circumference
changes, this indicates low pressure in a
tyre, a warning message is displayed in the
information display and the message
indicator will illuminate. See Information
Messages (page 90).
If a low pressure warning message is
displayed in the information display, check
the tyre pressures as soon as possible and
inflate them to the recommended
pressure. See Technical Specifications
(page 209).
If this happens frequently, have the cause
determined and rectified as soon as
possible.
