wheels and tires, the vehicle manufacturer
recommends using star-marked tires again.
The vehicle manufacturer recommends that
you use tires of the same make and tread
design.
New tires
Tire traction is not optimal due to manufac-
turing circumstances when tires are brand
new.
Drive conservatively for the first
200 miles/300 km.
Retreaded tires
Warning
Retreated tires can have different tire cas-
ing structures. With advanced age the
service life can be limited. There is a risk
of accident. The manufacturer of the ve-
hicle does not recommend the use of re-
treaded tires.
Winter tires
Winter tires are recommended for operat-
ing on winter roads.
Winter tires can be identified by the icon
with mountain and snowflake, as well as the
M+S marking on the tire sidewall.
All-season tires with the M+S designation,
but without icon with mountain and snow-
flake, have better winter characteristics
than summer tires but generally do not ach-
ieve the performance of winter tires.
Maximum speed of winter tires
If the maximum speed of the vehicle is
higher than the permissible speed for the
winter tires, then attach a sign showing the
permissible maximum speed in the field of
vision. The info label is available from an
authorized service center or another quali-
fied service center or repair shop.
With winter tires mounted, observe and do
not exceed the permissible maximum speed.
Changing runflat tires
When changing from runflat tires to stand-
ard tires, it must be ensured that the vehicle
contains an emergency wheel or tire mobi-
lity kit. For more information, contact an
authorized service center or another quali-
fied service center or repair shop.
Wheel change between axles
Different abrasion patterns can occur on the
front and rear axles depending on individual
driving conditions. The tires can be rotated
in pairs between the axles to achieve even
abrasion. For more information, contact an
authorized service center or another quali-
fied service center or repair shop. After
changing, check the tire pressure and cor-
rect, if needed.
Storing tires
Tire pressure
Do not exceed the maximum tire inflation
pressure indicated on the tire sidewall.
Storage
Store wheels and tires in a cool, dry and
dark place.
