TYRES (1/3)
Tyre and wheel safety
The tyres are the only contact between
the vehicle and the road, so it is essen-
tial to keep them in good condition.
You must make sure that your tyres
conform to local road traffic regulations.
When they need to be re-
placed, only tyres of the
same make, size, type and
profile should be used.
Tyres fitted to the vehicle should
either be identical to those fitted
originally or conform to those
recommended by your approved
dealer.Maintaining the tyres
The tyres must be in good condition
and the tread form 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 warning strips, they
become visible
2: it is then neces-
sary to replace your tyres because the
tread rubber is now only 1.6 mm deep
at most, resulting in poor road hold-
ing 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. If such
incidents occur, have the condition
of these parts checked by an ap-
proved dealer.

Use in winter
Chains
2-wheel drive version (2WD)
Snow chains must be fitted to the
front wheels.
4-wheel drive version (4WD)
Snow chains may be fitted to only the
front wheels, or to all four wheels.
TYRES (3/3)
It is forbidden to fit snow
chains to only the rear
wheels.
Snow chains may only be
fitted to tyres of the same size as
those originally fitted to your vehicle.
Only certain chains can be fitted to
tyres.
Consult an approved dealer.
Snow or Winter tyres
We would recommend that these be
fitted to all four wheels to ensure that
your vehicle retains maximum adhe-
sion.
Warning: These tyres sometimes
have a specific direction of rotation
and a maximum speed index which
may be lower than the maximum
speed of your vehicle.
Studded tyres
This type of equipment may only be
used for a limited period and as laid
down by local legislation.
It is necessary to observe the speed
specified by current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be
fitted to the two front wheels.
In all cases, we would recommend
that you contact your approved
dealer who will be able to advise you
on the choice of equipment which is
most suitable for your vehicle.
Changing wheels around
We recommend that you swap the
wheels regularly in order to ensure that
the tyres wear evenly.
Swap the wheels as shown in the above
diagram. Refer to your vehicle’s main-
tenance document for the intervals.
