Winter driving
It is recommended that you have your vehicle
inspected at your McLaren retailer at the onset
of winter. This service includes the following:
•
Checking the antifreeze/anti-corrosion
concentration
• Adding concentrated cleaning agent to the
windscreen washer system
•
Checking the battery
• Changing the tyres
Winter tyres
WARNING: Replace winter tyres with
a tread depth of less than 4 mm
immediately. They are not suitable
for winter use because they do not
provide sufficient grip, and could
cause an accident.
NOTE: Only winter tyres specified by
McLaren should be used.
NOTE: Tyres with sensors fitted are
detected automatically.
NOTE: In some countries, it is mandatory
to fit winter tyres at certain times of
the year or during certain driving
conditions.
NOTE: A wheel change must be carried
out at your McLaren retailer. The vehicle
could be damaged if it is jacked up
incorrectly.
NOTE: When new tyres with sensors are
fitted, navigate to the ‘Tyres’ screen on
the McLaren Infotainment System (MIS)
and touch reset icon in order to make
the vehicle detect the new tyres. See
Tyres, page 4.13
In a location that is safe and legal to do
so, drive the vehicle at a speed between
25 mph and 60 mph (40 km/h and 100
km/h) for a few minutes, the updated
pressures, temperatures and sizes will
be displayed.
If the reset procedure is not performed,
the vehicle will automatically detect the
new tyres, but it may take a few more
minutes of driving before the display is
updated.
Use winter tyres below 7°C (45°F) and on snow
or ice-covered roads. The maximum effect of the
anti-lock braking system and electronic stability
control systems is only achieved with these
tyres.
Use winter tyres of the same make and tread on
all wheels to maintain safe handling
characteristics.
Winter tyres with sensors are automatically
detected by the vehicle and a speed warning will
be automatically set as a reminder to not exceed
the safe driving speed of the tyres.
Consult your McLaren retailer for advice and
information regarding the maximum speed
specified for the winter tyres fitted. The
maximum speed of the vehicle can be restricted
using the ASL system, see Setting an upper
speed limit, page 2.53.
Snow socks
McLaren recommend that you only use snow
socks which have been approved for McLaren
vehicles. If you are intending to fit snow socks,
bear the following points in mind:
• Only ever fit snow socks to both rear
wheels.
