the corresponding maintenance service
may result in engine damage and/or
damage to other vehicle parts that are not
covered by the limited warranty for new
vehicles. Tire rotation
Your vehicle's tires are a critical component
to overall vehicle performance and vehicle
stability. The useful life of tires will vary and
is proportional to tire type, speed rating,
ambient

conditions, tire loading, tire inflation
pressure, road surfaces, and individual
driving style. We therefore recommend
regularly checking the tires for wear and
correct tire pressure, and - if the tire
configuration allows - that the tires are
rotated regularly.
Tires can only be rotated on vehicles with the
same tire size on the front and rear axles.
If your vehicle's tire configuration allows for
tire rotation, tire rotation should be
performed in accordance with the
recommended intervals, or sooner at first
signs of irregular (uneven) tread wear. Tire
rotation recommendations will likely
necessitate a tire rotation at least at every Oil
Service Plus/maintenance service.
Single tires at rear If your vehicle is equipped with the same tire
dimensions,

tires can be rotated by observing
a front-to-rear rotation pattern that will
maintain the intended rotation (spinning)
direction of the tire (on unidirectional tires, an
arrow on the sidewall indicates the intended
rotation or spinning direction of the tire).
Double tires at the rear If your vehicle is fitted with tires of the same
size,

the tires on the front axle can be rotated
with the inner tires on the rear axle in pairs
so that the intended rotation (spinning) direction of the tires remain the same. If the
tread

pattern on the tires is not unidirectional,
the outer tires can be rotated from one side
to another on the rear axle. Diagram showing tire rotation for single and double
tires
This Maintenance Booklet contains a
practical tire rotation confirmation page,
which you can use to record the date and
mileage for every tire rotation (
Y page 5). Arduous operating conditions
The maintenance intervals have been
determined

so that the vehicle, under normal
operating conditions, should operate
properly between maintenance services.
Arduous operating conditions may require
that the following parts be replaced at shorter
intervals:
R INTERIOR FILTERS
For example, dust filter, recirculating air
filter, activated charcoal filter or
combination filter) are replaced as required
by the maintenance computer. Under
severe dust conditions, or if the climate
control is operated frequently in air
recirculation mode, the filters should be
replaced more frequently than indicated by
the maintenance computer.
R COOLANT
The coolant (water/anticorrosion/
antifreeze mixture) should be replaced at
the specified maintenance intervals. Introduction
