& WARNING Risk of accident caused by
non-approved tyre types
If you use tyre types that have not been adap-
ted to changes made to the factory speed
limit, this can have the following consequen-
ces:
The tyres are not suitable for high speeds
R
and the corresponding driving dynamics.
The tyres wear unevenly and affect the
R
roadworthiness of the vehicle.
®
ABS, ESP and cruise control operation
R
are restricted.
This can jeopardise road safety.
Only use tyre types that have been
#
approved for the maximum permissible
speed set and the vehicle.
Notes on interchanging wheels
& WARNING Risk of injury through different
wheel sizes
Interchanging the front and rear wheels can
severely impair the driving characteristics.
The disk brakes or wheel suspension compo-
nents may also be damaged.
Only interchange the front and rear
#
wheels if the wheels and tyres have the
same dimensions.
Interchanging the front and rear wheels if the
wheels or tyres have different dimensions can
render the general operating permit invalid.
Observe the instructions and safety notes on
"Changing a wheel" ( page 661)
/
The wear patterns on the front and rear wheels
differ:
front wheels wear more on the tyre shoulder
R
rear wheels wear more in the centre of the
R
tyre
ohne
Do not drive with tyres that have too little tread
depth. This significantly reduces traction on wet
roads (aquaplaning).
On vehicles with the same front and rear wheel
size, you can interchange the wheels every
5,000 to 10,000 km, depending on the wear.
Ensure the direction of rotation is maintained for
the wheels.
Notes on storing wheels
When storing wheels, observe the following notes:
After removing wheels, store them in a cool,
R
dry and preferably dark place.
Protect the tyres from contact with oil, grease
R
or fuel.
Overview of the tyre-change tool kit
Apart from some country-specific variants, vehi-
cles are not equipped with a tyre-change tool kit.
For more information on which tyre-changing
tools are required and approved for performing a
wheel change on your vehicle, consult a qualified
specialist workshop.
