Notes on MOExtended tyres (run-flat tyres)
& WARNING Risk of accident when driving in
limp-home mode
Driving in emergency mode impairs the han-
dling characteristics of the vehicle.

#
speed of the MOExtended tyres.
Avoid any abrupt steering and driving
#
manoeuvres as well as driving over
obstacles (kerbs, pot holes, off-road).
This applies, in particular, to a loaded
vehicle.

#
you notice:

After driving in emergency mode, have
#
the rims checked by a qualified specialist
workshop with regard to their further
use.
The defective tyre must be replaced in
#
every case.
With MOExtended tyres (run-flat tyres), you can
continue to drive your vehicle even if there is a
total loss of pressure in one or more tyres. How-
ever, the tyre affected must not show any clearly
visible damage.
You can recognise MOExtended tyres by the
MOExtended marking which appears on the side
wall of the tyre.
Vehicles with tyre pressure loss warning system:
MOExtended tyres may only be used in conjunc-
tion with an activated tyre pressure loss warning
system.
Vehicles with tyre pressure monitoring system:
MOExtended tyres may only be used in conjunc-
tion with an activated tyre pressure monitoring
system.
