Retreaded tires
Warning
Retreated tires can have different tire casing
structures. With advanced age the service life
can be limited. There is a risk of accident.
The manufacturer of the vehicle does not rec-
ommend the use of retreaded tires.
Maximum speed
Safety information
Warning
If the maximum permissible speed of your
mounted tires is exceeded, the tires may be
damaged. There is a risk of accident. Do not
exceed the maximum permissible speed of
the tires.
Maximum speed of winter tires
If the maximum speed of the vehicle is higher
than the maximum permissible speed of the
winter tires, the maximum permissible speed
must be indicated with a sign placed in the
field of vision. The info label is available from
an authorized service center or another quali-
fied service center or repair shop.
Winter tires
Winter tires are recommended for operating on
winter roads.
Winter tires can be identified by the moun-
tain/snowflake icon and the letters M+S on the
tire sidewall.
So-called all-season tires with M+S marking
but without mountain and snowflake icon have
better winter properties than summer tires.
As a rule, all-season tires do not perform the
same as winter tires.
Wheel change between axles
Warning
A wheel change between the axles on vehi-
cles with different tire sizes or rim sizes on
the front and rear axles can cause damage
to the tires and the vehicle. There is a risk of
accident. Do not rotate the tires between the
axles on vehicles with different tire sizes or
rim sizes on the front and rear axles.
Storing tires
Tire pressure
Do not exceed the maximum tire inflation pres-
sure indicated on the tire sidewall.
