WARNING Risk of accident with high
performance tyres
The special tire tread in combination with the
optimised tyre compound means that the
risk of skidding and aquaplaning on wet
roads is increased.
In addition, the tyre grip is greatly reduced at
a low outside temperature and tyre running
temperature.
#
Switch on the ESP
®
and adapt your
driving style accordingly.
#
Use
i
M+S tyres at outside temper‐
atures of less than 10 °C.
#
Only use the tyres for their intended
purpose.
Observe the following when selecting, fitting and
replacing tyres:
R
Country-specific requirements for tyre
approval that define a specific tyre type for
your vehicle.
R
Furthermore, the use of certain tyre types in
certain regions and areas of operation can
be highly beneficial.
R
Only use tyres and wheels of the same type
(summer tyres, winter tyres, MOExtended
tyres) and the same make.
R
Only fit wheels of the same size on one axle
(left and right).
It is only permissible to fit a different wheel
size in the event of a flat tyre in order to
drive to the specialist workshop.
R
Do not make any modifications to the brake
system, the wheels or the tyres.
The use of shims or brake dust shields is not
permitted and may invalidate the vehicle's
general operating permit.
R
Vehicles with a tyre pressure monitoring
system: all fitted wheels must be equipped
with functioning sensors for the tyre pres‐
sure monitoring system.
R
At temperatures below 7°C use winter tyres
or all-season tyres marked
i
M+S for all
wheels.
Winter tyres provide the best possible grip in
wintry road conditions.
R
For M+S tyres, only use tyres with the same
tread.
R
Observe the maximum permissible speed for
the M+S tyres fitted.
