Practical tips
Driving style
F ast cornering, heavy accel
eration and hard
braking (squealing tyres) all increase tyre
wear.
Wheel balance
The wheels on new vehicles are balanced.
However, certain circumstances may lead to
imbalance (run-out), which is detected as vi-
brations in the steering wheel.
Unbalanced wheels should be rebalanced,
as they otherwise cause excessive wear on
steering, suspension and tyres. A wheel must
also be rebalanced when a new tyre is fitted
or if a tyre is repaired.
Incorrect wheel alignment
Incorrect running gear alignment causes ex-
cessive tyre wear, impairing the safety of the
vehicle. If you notice excessive tyre wear, you
should check wheel alignment at a SEAT Of-
ficial Service. WARNING
Unsuitable handling of the wheels and
t yr

es may lead to sudden tyre pressure los-
ses, to tread separation or even to a blow-
out.

Changing wheel s ar

ound
In order to wear the wheels in a uniform man-
ner, it is recommended to interchange them
regularly according to the diagram
››› Fig. 168. The useful life of all the tyres will
then be about the same time. WARNING
The tyres must be replaced at the latest
when the tr ead is w

orn down to the tread
wear indicators. Failure to follow this in-
struction could result in an accident.

Practical tips
design of summer tyres (width, rubber com-
pound, tr ead patt
ern) gives less grip on ice
and snow. This applies particularly to vehicles
equipped with wide section tyres or with
high speed tyres (code letters H, V or Y on
the sidewall).
Only use winter tyres of the correct type ap-
proved for your vehicle. The sizes of these
tyres are specified in the vehicle's documents
(e.g. EC Certificate of Conformity or COC 1)
).
The vehicle documentation varies depending
on the country of residence.
Winter tyres lose a great deal of their proper-
ties when the tread is worn down to a depth
of 4 mm.
The performance of winter tyres is also se-
verely impaired by ageing, even if the tread is
still much deeper than 4 mm.
A code letter indicating the speed limit is
stamped on all winter tyres ››› page 189.
Vehicles capable of exceeding these speeds
must have an appropriate sticker attached
so that it is visible to the driver. Suitable stick-
ers are available from the SEAT Official Serv-
ice and specialised workshop. Please note
the regulations to this effect in your country.
“All-weather” tyres can also be used instead
of winter tyres. Using winter tyres with V-rating
Please not
e that the generally applicable
240 km/h (149 mph) speed for winter tyres
with the letter V is subject to technical re-
strictions; the maximum permissible speed
for your vehicle may be significantly lower.
The maximum speed limit for these tyres de-
pends directly on the maximum axle weights
for your car and on the listed weight rating of
the tyres being used.
It is best to contact a SEAT Official Service to
check the maximum speed which is permissi-
ble for the V-rated tyres fitted on your car on
the basis of this information. WARNING
Exceeding the maximum speed permitted
f or the wint

er tyres fitted on your car can
cause tyre failure, resulting in a loss of con-
trol of the vehicle – risk of accident. For the sake of the environment
When winter is over, change back to sum-
mer t yr

es at an appropriate moment. In
temperatures above +7°C (+45°F), perform-
ance will be improved if summer tyres are
used. Rolling noise, wear and energy con-
sumption will all be reduced. Snow chains
Snow chains should only be used on the
