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 charac-

teristics.

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 228, fig. 189.

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 230,

 .

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 228.

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 temperatures 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 proper-

ties 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 dedi-

cated 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 additional instructions  page 236, “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.

When driving on wintry roads, snow chains improve not only traction, but also the

braking performance.

For technical reasons, it is only permissible to fit snow chains with the following

wheel/tyre combinations.
