Skoda Rapid Spaceback Owner's Manual page 141

If "winter" tyres are mounted, summer tyres should be fitted again in good
time as they provide better handling properties, a shorter braking distance,
less tyre noise and reduced tyre wear on roads which are free of snow and ice
as well as at temperatures above 7 °C.
Speed symbol
All-year or "winter"tyres (marked with M+S and a peak/snowflake symbol ) of
a lower speed category than listed in the vehicle's technical documentation
can be used provided that the maximum permissible speed for these tyres is
not exceeded even if the maximum possible speed of the vehicle is higher.
For vehicles with Infotainment, using the  button you can adjust the speed
limit for all-season or "winter" tyres
er vehicles, there is the possibility to set the speed limit for winter tyres at a
specialist garage.
If the vehicle tyres are of a lower speed category than maximum specified
speed of the vehicle, then a warning label showing the maximum speed per-
mitted for the tyres fitted must be affixed in a place in the driver's field of vi-
sion inside the vehicle. If necessary, the maximum value for the intended
speed rating of the fitted tyres can be set in Infotainment
