Wear iindicators
At the bottom of the tread of the original
tyres there are 1.6 mm high “wear indica-
tors” running across the tread – see fig.
There are 6-8 of these indicators – accord-
ing to make – evenly spaced around the
tyre circumference. Marks on the walls of
the tyre (for example the letters “TWI” or
triangles) show the locations of the wear
indicators.
Warning
•
The ttyres m
must b
be rrenewed w
when
they a
are w
worn d
down tto tthe w
wear
indicators.
•
Worn ttyres a
are d
detrimental tto
roadholding p
particularly a
at h
high
speeds o
on w
wet rroads. F
Furthermore,
the v
vehicle ttends tto a
aquaplane
sooner.
Note
When tread depth is down to 1.6 mm
measured in the tread groove next to the
wear indicator bar – the official permissi-
ble minimum tread depth has been
reached (in export countries this figure
may differ).
Renewing w
wheels/tyres
Wheels and tyres are important design
features. The wheels and tyres approved
by us should be used. They are specially
matched to the model concerned and con-
tribute largely to the excellent roadhold-
ing and safe driving characteristics.
The T
Technical S
Services h
hold u
up tto
date iinformation rregarding tthe s
stan-
dard ttyres ffitted b
by tthe m
manufacturer.

Fitting and repairing tyres requires
expert knowledge and special tools. This
work may only be carried out by specialist
personnel.
❀
Because o
of tthe p
problem o
of
disposing o
of tthe o
old ttyres, tthe
special ttools n
necessary a
and tthe
specialist k
knowledge rrequired, ttyre
changing s
should p
preferably b
be d
done
by a
a T
Technical S
Service C
Centre.
•
For safety reasons the tyres should be
renewed in pairs and not singly. The tyres
with the deepest tread should always be
on the front wheels.
