place.
Always protect tires against all contact with oil,
grease and fuels.

Run-flat tires
Concept
Runflat tires permit continued driving under re‐
stricted conditions even in the event of a com‐
plete loss of tire inflation pressure.
General information
The wheels consist of tires that are self-sup‐
porting, to a limited degree, and possibly spe‐
cial rims.
The support of the sidewall allows the tire to
remain drivable to a restricted degree in the
event of a tire inflation pressure loss.
Follow the instructions for continued driving
with a flat tire.
Label
RSC label on the tire sidewall.
Changing run-flat tires
For your own safety, only use run-flat tires. No
spare tire is available in the case of a flat tire.
Further information is available from a dealer’s
service center or another qualified service cen‐
ter or repair shop.
