Selecting, mounting and replacing tires
• Only mount tires and wheels of the same type and make.
• Only mount approved tires of the correct size onto the wheels.
• Tires are supplied with a protective layer from the factory. Break in new tires at moderate speeds for the first 60 miles (100 km). They only reach their full performance after this distance.
• Do not drive with tires which have too little tread depth. as this significantly reduces the traction on wet roads (hydroplaning).
• Replace the tires after six years at the latest, regardless of wear. This also applies to the spare wheel.
