Summer tires
Do not drive with a tire tread of less than
0.12 in/3 mm, otherwise there is an increased
risk of hydroplaning.
Winter tires
Do not drive with a tire tread of less than
0.16 in/4 mm, as such tires are less suitable for
winter operation.

Tire damage
General information
Inspect your tires regularly for damage, foreign
objects lodged in the tread, and tread wear.
Driving over rough or damaged road surfaces, as
well as debris, curbs and other obstacles can
cause serious damage to wheels, tires and sus‐
pension parts. This is more likely to occur with
low-profile tires, which provide less cushioning
between the wheel and the road. Be careful to
avoid road hazards and reduce your speed, es‐

Indications of tire damage or other vehicle mal‐
functions:
▷
Unusual vibrations.
▷
Unusual tire or running noises.
▷
Unusual handling such as a strong tendency
to pull to the left or right.
Damage can be caused by the following situa‐

▷
Driving over curbs.
▷
Road damage.
▷
Tire inflation pressure too low.
▷
Vehicle overloading.
▷
Incorrect tire storage.
Safety information

purpose, drive carefully to the nearest dealer’s
service center or another qualified service cen‐
