Tyres
Tyre and wheel safety
The tyres are the only contact between
thevehicleandtheroad,soitises
sential to keep them in good condition.
You must make sure that your tyres
conformtolocalroadtrafficregula
tions.
For your safety and to
comply with the law.
When they need to be
replaced, only tyres of
the same make, size, type and
profile should be used on a single
axle.
They must either have a load
capacity and speed rating at
least equal to those of the origi
nal tyres, or conform to those
recommended by an authorised
dealer.
Failure to heed these instructions
could endanger your safety and
affectyourvehicle'sroadworthi
ness.
Risk of loss of control of the
vehicle.
Maintaining the tyres
The tyres must be in good condition
and the treads must have sufficient
depth: tyres approved by our Technical
Department have wear warning strips
1 which are indicators moulded into
the tread at several points.
When the tyre tread has been worn to
the level of the wear indicators these
become visible 2 : it will then be
necessary to replace your tyres as
the tread depth will be 1.6 mm at
most, resulting in poor road-holding
on wet roads.
An overloaded vehicle, long journeys
by motorway, particularly in very hot
weather, or continual driving on poorly
surfaced minor roads will lead to more
rapid tyre wear and affect safety.
Incidents which occur
when driving, such as
striking the kerb, may
damage the tyres and
wheel rims, and could also lead to
misalignment of the front or rear
axle geometry. In this case, have
the condition of these checked by
an approved dealer.
Tyre pressures
Adhere to the tyre pressures (including
the emergency spare wheel). The tyre
pressures should be checked at least
once a month and additionally before
anylongjourney(refertothelabelaf
fixed to the edge of the driver's door
🡺327).
