236Vehicle careAfter converting to a different tyre
size, have the label with tyre
pressures replaced.9 Warning
The use of unsuitable tyres or
wheels may lead to accidents and will invalidate the vehicle
operating permit.
Wheel covers
Wheel covers and tyres that are
factory approved for the respective
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 factory approved, the tyres must
not have a rim protection ridge.
Wheel covers must not impair brake
cooling.
9 Warning
Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel
covers could lead to sudden
pressure loss and thereby
accidents.
Tyre chains
Tyre chains are only permitted on the
front wheels.
Always use fine mesh chains that add no more than 10 mm to the tyre tread
and the inboard sides (including chain lock).
9 Warning
Damage may lead to tyre blowout.
If the vehicle has a tyre size other than
215/50R17, do not use tyre chains.
There is not enough clearance. Tyre
chains used on a vehicle without the proper amount of clearance can
cause damage to the brakes,
suspension, or other vehicle parts. The area damaged by the tyre chains
could cause loss of control and a
crash. Use another type of traction
device only if its manufacturer
recommends it for the vehicle's tyre
size combination and road conditions. Follow that manufacturer's
instructions. To avoid vehicle
damage, drive slowly and readjust or
remove the traction device if it
contacts the vehicle. Do not spin the wheels. If traction devices are used,
install them on the front tyres.
On tyres of size 215/50 R17 only use special snow chains which are
permitted for Opel Ampera-e and
tyres of these sizes. For further
information contact a workshop.
