Winter tyres
The handling of your vehicle will be significantly improved when driving on
wintry roads if you fit winter tyres (labelled M+S).
To obtain the best possible handling, winter tyres must be fitted to all four
wheels. The minimum tread depth must be 4 mm.
Fit the summer tyres on again in good time as they provide better handling
properties, a shorter braking distance, less tyre noise, and reduced tyre wear
on roads which are free of snow and ice as well as at temperatures above 7 °C.
Speed symbol
Winter tyres (marked with M+S and a peak/snowflake symbol
) of a lower
speed category can be used provided that the permissible maximum speed of
these tyres is not exceeded even if the possible maximum speed of the vehicle
is higher.
On vehicles with the infotainment system with key the speed limit can be
set for winter tyres » Owner´s Manual Infotainment , chapter CAR - Adjust ve-
hicle systems .
For other vehicles, there is the possibility to have the speed limit set for winter
tyres in a specialist workshop.
Snow chains
When driving in wintry road conditions, snow chains improve not only traction,
but also the braking performance.
Snow chains must only be mounted on the front wheels.
It is only permissible to fit snow chains with the following wheel/tyre combina-
tions.
Rim sizeImpression depth DTyre size6.5J x 1641 mm215/60 R166.5J x 1741 mm215/55 R17
Applies for 2.0 l/162, 206 kW TSI
Rim sizeImpression depth DTyre size6.5J x 1741 mm215/55 R17
Only fit snow chains with links and locks not larger than 12 mm.
Remove the full wheel trims before installing the snow chains » page 225.
CAUTIONThe chains must be removed when driving on snow-free paths. They would
otherwise cause loss of performance and damage the tyres.221Wheels

On vehicles with a factory-fitted towing device, there is no mount for the
screw-in towing eye behind and below the cap.
Use the detachable ball rod for towing » page 184, Hitch .
Towing the vehicle using the tow bar device is a viable alternative solution to
using the towing eye.
