(*) Also available as tires with run-flat capabilities.
Use of snow chains
Snow chains are only approved for use with size
235/60R16 tires.
Fine chains with a link thickness of 10mm may be
used at speeds of up to 50 km/h (please refer to
the manufacturer's instructions).
Coarser chains with a link thickness of 11 to 14
mm may be used at speeds of up to 40 km/h
(please refer to the manufacturer's instructions).
Tire repair kit
If the tires used do not have run-flat properties then
the vehicle will be equipped with a tire repair kit.
A tire repair kit is located in the spare wheel well
in the luggage compartment.
The tire repair kit consists of:
• a compressor with a pressure gauge,
• a lead for voltage supply via the cigar lighter,
• an air hose,
• tire sealant.
A tire filled with tire sealant must be replaced with
a new tire after 200 km at the latest. Read and
observe the instructions regarding the tire low
pressure sensors (see lesson 4 – Tire pressure
monitoring system).
Instructions on handling and using the tire repair
kit can be found in a separate operating manual
that is enclosed with the tire repair kit.
