Wear indicators

The original tyres on your vehicle have 1.6 mm high “tread wear indicators”

⇒page 198, fig. 133, running across the tread. Depending on the make,

there will be six to eight of them evenly spaced around the tyre. Markings on

the tyre sidewall (for instance the letters “TWI” or other symbols) indicate the

positions of the tread wear indicators. The minimum tread depth required by

law is 1.6 mm (measured in the tread grooves next to the tread wear indica-

tors). Worn tyres must be replaced. Different figures may apply in export

countries ⇒.

Tyre pressure

Incorrect tyre pressure causes premature wear and could cause tyre blow-out.

For this reason, the tyre pressure should be checked at least once per month

⇒page 197.

Driving style

Fast cornering, heavy acceleration and hard braking all increase tyre wear.

Changing wheels around

If the front tyres are worn considerably more than the rear ones it is advisable

to change them around as shown ⇒page 198, fig. 134. All the tyres will then

last for about the same time.

Wheel balance

The wheels on new vehicles are balanced. However, various factors encoun-

tered in normal driving can cause them to become unbalanced, which results

in steering vibration.

Unbalanced wheels should be rebalanced, as they otherwise cause excessive

wear on steering, suspension and tyres. A wheel must also be rebalanced

when a new tyre is fitted.

Incorrect wheel alignment

Incorrect wheel alignment causes excessive tyre wear, impairing the safety of

the vehicle. If tyres show excessive wear, you should have the wheel align-

ment checked by an Authorised Service Centre.

WARNING

There is a serious danger of accidents if a tyre bursts during driving!

•The tyres must be replaced at the latest when the tread is worn down to

the tread wear indicators. Failure to do so could result in an accident. Worn

tyres do not grip well at high speeds on wet roads. There is also a greater

risk of “aquaplaning”

•At continuously high speeds, a tyre with insufficient pressure flexes

more. This causes it to overheat. This can cause tread separation and tyre

blow-out. Risk of accident. Always observe the recommended tyre pres-

sures.

•If tyres show excessive wear, you should have the running gear checked

by an Authorised Service Centre.

•Keep chemicals such as oil, fuel and brake fluid away from tyres.

•Damaged wheels and tyres must be replaced immediately!

For the sake of the environment

Under-inflated tyres will increase fuel consumption.

New tyres and wheels

New tyres and wheels have to be run-in.

The tyres and wheel rims are an essential part of the vehicle's design. The

tyres and rims approved by SEAT are specially matched to the characteristics

of the vehicle and make a major contribution to good road holding and safe

handling ⇒.

Tyres should be replaced at least in pairs and not individually (i.e. both front

tyres or both rear tyres together). A knowledge of tyre designations makes it
