GENERAL INFORMATION

Your vehicle may have an adhesive label
with tire pressure data, located in the
driver's door opening.
Check and set the tire pressure when the
tires are cold.
Note: Check your tire pressures regularly to
optimize fuel economy.
Note: Use only approved wheel and tire
sizes. Using other sizes could damage your
vehicle.
Note: If you change the diameter of the tires
from the tires fitted at the factory, the
speedometer may not display the correct
speed.
Note: If you intend to change the diameter
of the tires from the tires fitted at the
factory, ask your authorized dealer about
the fit.

Wheels and Tires

Directional tires
E70415
To make sure the front and rear tires of
your vehicle wear evenly and last longer,
we recommend that you swap the tires
from front to rear and vice versa at regular
intervals between 5,000 km and
10,000 km.
If you have to mount a curb, do so slowly
and approach it with the wheels at
right-angles to the curb.
Examine the tires regularly for cuts, foreign
objects and uneven wear of the tread.
Uneven wear could mean that the wheel
alignment is outside specification.
Check the tire pressures (including the
spare) when cold, every two weeks.

USING SNOW CHAINS

148
WARNING
Do not scrub the sidewalls of the
tires when you are parking.

Do not exceed 40 km/h (25 mph).
Do not use snow chains on snow-free
roads.
The snow chains must be fitted in
the front axle only with tire size
