Winter tyres

See page 159 for restrictions.
M+S tyres improve safety at temperatures
below 7 °C and should therefore be fitted
on all wheels.
The design of summer tyres means they
have limited qualities for winter driving.
If the maximum permissible speed for the
winter tyres is less than that of the vehicle,
a notice indicating the maximum
permissible speed for the tyres must be
affixed within the driver's field of vision 3

Varies from country to country on account of
national regulations.
If you use winter tyres 3, the spare wheel
may still be fitted with a summer tyre. If you
use the spare wheel the vehicle's handling
may be altered. Obtain a replacement for
the faulty tyre as soon as possible, and
have the wheel balanced and fitted to the
vehicle.
