Summer tires
Summer is a rainy season. The tire tread
depth directly affects the driving safety in rainy
days. In summer, when the tire tread depth is
less than 3 mm, there is a high risk of water
slippage.
Winter tires
Winter tires still have good grip performance
when roads are covered with snow and ice.
The specially designed rubber tread makes
the tires less affected by low temperature
environment and excellent braking ability,
ensuring driving safety.
-
Use winter tires on all the four wheels.
- It is recommended to use winter tires
when driving in icy or snowy days in
winter or when the temperature is below
7°C.
- Use only radial winter tires of same
dimensions, load range and rated speed
as original ones on this vehicle.
- Please note that the tread of winter tires
shall have patterns deep enough (tread
depth not less than 4 mm; otherwise, the
applicability in winter will be limited).
- After installation of tires, check the tire
inflation pressure.

respective typical lane conditions
under the corresponding seasonal
conditions. It is recommended to
use winter tires in winter. At low
temperatures, the adaptability of
summer tires is significantly poorer,
thereby losing road adhesion and
braking ability.
● If summer tires are used in severe
cold conditions, cracks may appear
on the tires, thereby completely
damaging the tires, and causing
excessive tire noise and loss of
balance.
WARNING
● Winter tires may lead to decreased
traction force of the vehicle on dry
roads, increased road noise and
shortened service life of tread. Please
pay attention to the performance
change of the vehicle in terms of
maneuvering and braking after the
winter tires are used.
● Please note that the maximum speed
for winter tires is relatively low. Do
not exceed the allowable maximum
speed for the tires.
● Please note that please replace the
winter tires with summer tires in
time in order to ensure driving safety
and performance when driving in
the environment at the atmospheric
temperature rising above 7 °C .
● When driving with winter tires, if
a spare tire is installed, unstable
steering characteristics may occur
due to different tires, weakening
driving stability. In this case, driving
styles need to be adjusted and
driving shall be performed carefully.
