Winter tyres

The handling of your vehicle will be significantly improved when driving on wintry

roads if you fit winter tyres. Summer tyres do not offer the same grip on ice, snow

and at temperatures below 7 °C because of their construction (width, rubber blend,

tread pattern). This particularly applies to vehicles which are equipped with low-

profile tyres or high-speed tyres (code index H or V on wall of tyre).

Winter tyres must be mounted on all four wheels to obtain the best handling char-

acteristics.

You must only fit those types of winter tyre which are approved for your vehicle. The

permissible sizes of winter tyres are stated in your vehicle documents. Approvals

may differ because of national legislation.

Please remember that the tyres should be inflated to 20 kPa (0.2 bar) more than is

the case for summer tyres ⇒ page 235, fig. 210.

Winter tyres no longer offer the same winter performance once the tyre tread has

worn down to a depth of about 4 mm.

Ageing also causes winter tyres to lose most of their winter performance properties

- even in cases where the remaining tread depth is still clearly more than 4 mm.

Speed restrictions apply to winter tyres as well as to summer tyres ⇒ page 237,

⇒ .

You can fit winter tyres of a lower speed category to your vehicle provided that you

also do not drive faster than the permissible maximum speed for such tyres, even

if the possible maximum speed of your vehicle is higher. The corresponding tyre

category can damage the tyres when exceeding the permissible maximum speed.

Please pay attention to the notes if you decide to fit winter tyres ⇒ page 235.

You can also fit so-called “all-year tyres” instead of winter tyres.

Please contact your specialist garage if there are any points which are not clear who

will be able to provide you with information regarding the maximum speed for your

tyres.

WARNING

You must on no account drive your car at more than the permissible

maximum speed for your winter tyres - risk of an accident resulting from

tyre damage and loss of control over your car.

For the sake of the environment

Fit your summer tyres on again in good time since summer tyres offer you better

grip and handling on roads which are free of snow and ice as well as ar tempera-

tures below 7 °C - the braking distance is shorter, there is less tyre noise, tyre wear

is reduced and fuel consumption is reduced.

Note

Please observe the various differing legal requirements regarding tyres.

Unidirectional tyres*

The direction of rotation of the tyres is marked by arrows on the wall of the tyre.

This indicates the direction of rotation of the tyre, and it is essential that the tyres

are fitted on to run in this direction. Only then are the tyres able to provide the

optimal properties in terms of grip, low noise, wear-and-tear and aquaplaning.

Should it be necessary to fit on a spare wheel in exceptional cases with a tyre not

dedicated to the running direction or in opposite running direction, please adopt a

cautious style of driving as the tyre is no longer able to provide optimal grip and

handling in such a situation. This particularly important on wet roads. Please refer

to the notes ⇒ page 245, “Spare wheel*”.

You should have the defective tyre replaced as soon as possible and restore the

correct direction of rotation on all tyres

Snow chains

Snow chains must only be mounted on the front wheels.
