Maintenance
Winter Tyres
Because of the limited winter
qualification of summer tyres for
winter use we recommend the use of
winter tyres (M S tyres) on snowy ＋
and icy roads. If M S tyres are
＋
installed, all four wheels should be
equipped to insure safe driving. Use
only tyres of the same brand with
the same profile. Pay attention to the
tyre size, load capacity and speed
class when buying.
Tyre Chains
Use snow chains only in an
emergency or when they are legally
required for driving through a
certain area. Install the snow chains
on the front wheels. Use greater
caution when driving with snow
chains on snow or ice. They may
have less-predictable handling than
good winter tyres without chains.
Some snow chains may damage the
vehicle's tyres, wheels, suspension,
brake lines and body. Choose only
fine limbed chains which guarantee
enough free space between the tyre
and the other vehicle parts in the
wheelhouse. Pay attention to the
sectional assembly view and other
directions from the chain
manufacturer. Consult your dealer
before purchasing any type of chains
for your vehicle.
