*: Above 160 km/hCheck the tyre inflation pressure of all the tyres while they ar
e cold; if insufficient or excessive, adjust to the specified v
alue.
After the tyre inflation pressure has been adjusted, check the tyres for damage and air leaks. Be sure to put caps on the valve
s.
E01001801970
Check the tyres for cuts, cracks and otherdamage. Replace the tyres if there are deep
cuts or cracks. Also check each tyre forpieces of metal or pebbles.The use of worn tyres can be very dangerousbecause of the greater chance of skidding orhydroplaning. The tread depth of the tyresmust exceed 1.6 mm in order for the tyres tomeet the minimum requirement for use.Tread wear indicators will appear on the sur-face of the tyre as the tyre wears, therebyindicating that the tyre no longer meets theminimum requirement for use. When thesewear indicators appear, the tyres must bereplaced with new ones.When replacement of any of the tyres is nec-essary, replace all of them.

CAUTION zAlways use tyres of the same size, sametype, and same brand, and which have nowear differences. Using tyres of differentsize, type, brands or
degree of wear, will
increase the differential oil temperature,resulting in possible damage to the drivingsystem. Further, the drive train will be sub-jected to excessive loading, possibly leadingto oil leakage, component seizure, or otherserious faults.

Ty r e w e a r v a r i e s w i t h v e h i c l e c o n d i t i o n s ,road surface conditions and individualdriver’s driving habits. To equalise the wearand help extend tyre life, it is recommendedto rotate the tyres immediately after discoveryof abnormal wear, or whenever the wear dif-ference between the front and rear tyres isrecognisable.When rotating tyres, check for uneven wearand damage. Abnormal wear is usuallycaused by incorrect tyre pressure, improperwheel alignment, out of balance wheel, orsevere braking. We recommend you to have it
checked to determine the cause of irregulartread wear.
E01002000754
The use of snow tyres is recommended fordriving on snow and ice. To preserve drivingstability, mount snow tyres of the same sizeand tread pattern on all four wheels.A snow tyre that is
worn down more than
50% is no longer appropriate to use.Snow tyres which do not meet specificationsmust not be used.
Replacing tyres and wheels
CAUTION zAv o i d u s i n g d i f f e r e n t s i z e t y r e s f r o m t h e o n elisted and the combined
use of different
types of tyres, as th
is can affect driving
safety.Refer to “Tyres and wheels” on page 12-8. zEven if a wheel has the same rim size andoffset as the specified type of wheel, itsshape may prevent it from being fitted cor-rectly. We recommend you to consult a spe-cialist before using wheels that you have.
Ty r e r o t a t i o n
CAUTION zIf the tyres have arrows (A) indicating thecorrect direction of rotation, swap the frontand rear tyres on the left-hand side of thevehicle and the front and rear tyres on theright-hand side of th
e vehicle separately.
Keep each tyre on its original side of thevehicle. When fitting the tyres, make surethe arrows point in the direction in which thewheels will turn when the vehicle moves for-ward. Any tyre whose arrow points in thewrong direction will not perform to its fullpotential.Tyres that do not have arrows showing rotation directionFrontTy r e s t h a t h a v e a r r o w s s h o w i n g r o t a t i o n d i r e c -tionFront
CAUTION zAvoid the combined use of different types oftyres.Using different types of
tyres can affect vehi-
cle performance and safety.

It is recommended that snow chains are car-ried in snow regions and fitted when requiredto the front wheels in accardance with themanufacture’s instructions.On 4WD vehicles in which the driving poweris distributed preferentially to the frontwheels, ensure that the tyre chains are fittedon the front.The tyres fitted to your vehicle as originalequipment allow you to fit tyre chains if theyare required. When replacing your tyres,check with the tyre distributor or manufac-turer if the fitting of tyre chains will be detri-mental to the tyres being purchased.
Always follow the chain manufacturer’sinstructions when fitting the chains.

1. Lift the wiper arm off the windscreen.
CAUTION zObserve permissible maximum speed foryour snow tyres and the legal speed limit.NOTE
zThe laws and regula
tions concerning snow
tyres (driving speed, requi
red use, type, etc.)
vary. Find out and follow the laws and regu-lations in the area you intend to drive. zIf flange nuts are used on your vehicle,change to tapered nuts when steel wheels areused.
Ty r e c h a i n s
WA R N I N G zDO NOT use a jack when fitting thechains, as in the conditions, the tyres mayslip on the ic
y road causing the vehicle to
slip off the jack.CAUTION zChoose a clear straight stretch of road whereyou can pull off and still be seen while youare fitting the chains. zDo not fit chains before you need them. Thiswill wear out your tyres and the road surface. zAfter driving around 100-300 metres, stopand retighten the chains. zCare should be taken with extremes of steer-ing lock to prevent possible contact betweenthe chains and the vehicle body. zDrive carefully and do not exceed 30 km/h.Remember, fitting chains is not going to stopaccidents from happening. zWhen tyre chains are installed, take care thatthey do not damage the disc wheel or body. zAn aluminium wheel can be damaged by atyre chain while driving. When fitting a tyrechain on an aluminium wheel, take care thatany part of the chai
n and fitting cannot be
brought into contact with the wheel.
zRemove the wheel covers before installing atyre chain, otherwise they may be damagedby the tyre chain. (Refer to page 9-18.) zWhen installing or removing the tyre chains,take care that hands and other parts of yourbody are not injured by the sharp edges ofthe vehicle body. zInstall the chains only on the front tyres andtighten them as tightly
as possible with the
ends securely fastened.
