TYRE CARE

E7 0 4 15
To make sure the front and rear tyres of
your vehicle wear evenly and last longer,
we recommend that you swap the tyres
as per the graphic at regular intervals of
between 5 000 and 10 000 km (3 000
and 6 000 miles).
CAUTION
Do not scrub the sidewalls of the
tyres when you are parking.
If you have to mount a kerb, do so slowly
and approach it with the wheels at right-
angles to the kerb.
Examine the tyres regularly for cuts,
foreign objects and uneven wear of the
tread. Uneven wear could mean that the
wheel alignment is outside specification.
