Some circuits may be protected by
several fuses.
Wheels
Tyres
Factory-fitted tyres are matched to
the chassis and offer optimum driving
comfort and safety.
Winter tyres 3
Tyres of size 165/70 R 14 and
185/60 R 15 may be used as winter
tyres.
Winter tyres improve safety at
temperatures below 7
°C and should
therefore be fitted on all the wheels.
Depending on national regulations, a
notice indicating the maximum
permissible speed for the tyres must
be affixed within the driver's field of
vision.
The maximum permissible speed
varies from country to country on
account of national regulations.
Ensure that winter tyres are inflated
to the correct pressure specified by
the tyre manufacturer. No. Circuit

10-17Vehicle care
Tyre condition
Drive over edges slowly and at a right
angle if possible. When parking,
ensure that the tyres are not pressed
against the edge of the kerb.
Check tyres regularly for damage
(foreign bodies, punctures, cuts,
cracks, bulges in sidewalls). Check
wheels for damage. In the event of
damage or abnormal wear, seek the
assistance of a workshop.
Different tyre and wheel
types
If tyres of a different size to those
fitted at the factory are used (this
includes winter tyres), the electronic speedometer may possibly need to
be reprogrammed, to ensure that the
speed displayed is correct.
Wheel covers 3
Wheel covers and tyres that are
approved for the vehicle and comply
with all of the relevant wheel and tyre
combination requirements must be
used.
If the wheel covers and tyres used
are not approved, make sure that the
tyres do not have a beaded edge.
Remove wheel covers before fitting
tyre chains, to avoid damaging the
wheel covers.
Tyre chains 3
Tyre chains are only permitted on the
drive wheels (front axle). They must
be fitted to the tyres symmetrically in
order to achieve a concentric fit.
Use fine mesh chains that add no
more than 10 mm to the tyre tread
and the inboard sides (including
chain lock).
Tyre chains may only be used at
speeds of up to 50 km/h (30 mph) or
up to the tyre chain manufacturer’s
recommended maximum speed,
whichever is lower.
9 Warning
If the pressure is too low, this can
result in considerable tyre warm-
up and internal damage, leading
to tread separation and even to
tyre blow-out at high speeds.
Caution
Use of unsuitable tyres or wheels
may lead to accidents and render
the vehicle unroadworthy.
