then attach a sign showing the permissible
maximum speed in the field of vision. The sign
is available from an authorized service center
or another qualified service center or repair
shop.
With winter tires mounted, observe and do not
exceed the permissible maximum speed.
Changing runflat tires
When changing from runflat tires to standard
tires, it must be ensured that the vehicle con-
tains an emergency wheel or tire mobility kit.
Further information is available from an au-
thorized service center or another qualified
service center or repair shop.
Wheel change between axles
Warning
A wheel change between the axles on vehi-
cles with different tire sizes or rim sizes on
the front and rear axles can cause damage
to the tires and the vehicle. There is a risk of
accident. Do not rotate the tires between the
axles on vehicles with different tire sizes or
rim sizes on the front and rear axles.
Different abrasion patterns can occur on the
front and rear axles depending on individual
driving conditions. The tires can be rotated in
pairs between the axles to achieve even abra-
sion. Further information is available from an
authorized service center or another qualified
service center or repair shop. After changing,
check the tire pressure and correct, if needed.

Wheels and tires
Storage
▷ Store wheels and tires in a cool, dry and
dark place.
▷ Always protect tires against all contact with
oil, grease, and solvents.
▷ Do not leave tires in plastic bags.
▷ Remove dirt from wheels or tires.
Runflat tires
Principle
Runflat tires permit continued driving under
limited conditions even in the event of a com-
plete tire pressure loss.
General information
The wheels consist of tires that are self-sup-
porting to a limited degree and may also in-
clude special rims.
The reinforcement of the sidewall allows the
tire to remain drivable to a limited degree in
the event of a tire pressure loss.
Follow the instructions for continued driving
with a flat tire.
Safety information
Warning
The vehicle handles differently when a runflat
tire has insufficient or no tire pressure; for
instance, reduced directional stability when
braking, braking distances are longer and the
self-steering properties will change. There is
a risk of accident. Drive moderately and do
not exceed a speed of 50 mph/80 km/h.
