When rotating tyres, check for uneven wear and
damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused by in-
correct tyre pressure, improper wheel alignment,
out of balance wheel, or severe braking. We rec-
ommend you to have it checked to determine the
cause of irregular tread wear.

only.
CAUTION
l
A compact spare tyre can be fitted tem-
porarily in place of a tyre that has been
removed during the tyre rotation. How-
ever, it must not be included in the regu-
lar tyre rotation sequence.
l
If the tyres have arrows (A) indicating
the correct direction of rotation, swap the
front and rear wheels on the left hand
side of the vehicle and the front and rear
wheels on the right hand side of the vehi-
cle separately. Keep each tyre on its origi-
nal side of the vehicle. When fitting the
tyres, make sure the arrows point in the
direction in which the wheels will turn
when the vehicle moves forward. Any
tyre whose arrow points in the wrong di-
rection will not perform to its full poten-
tial.

CAUTION
l
Avoid the combined use of different types
of tyres. Using different types of tyres can
affect vehicle performance and safety.
Snow tyres
E01002000666
The use of snow tyres is recommended for driving
on snow and ice. To preserve driving stability,
mount snow tyres of the same size and tread pat-
tern on all four wheels.
Snow tyres worn more than 50 % are no longer
suitable for use as snow tyres.
Snow tyres which do not meet specifications must
not be used.
CAUTION
l
Observe permissible maximum speed for
your snow tyres and the legal speed limit.
NOTE
l
The laws and regulations concerning snow
tyres (driving speed, required use, type, etc.)
vary. Find out and follow the laws and regu-
lations in the area you intend to drive.
l
If flange nuts are used on your vehicle,
change to tapered nuts when steel wheels are
used.
Tyre chains
E01002101954
If tyre chains have to be used, ensure that they are
fitted only on the rear wheels.
