Notes on regularly inspecting wheels and tyres

tyres
Damaged tyres can cause tyre pressure loss.
F167 0009 02
Check the tyres regularly for signs of

damage and replace any damaged tyres
immediately.
& WARNING Risk of aquaplaning due to
insufficient tyre tread
Insufficient tyre tread will result in reduced
tyre grip.
The risk of aquaplaning is increased on wet
roads, especially when the speed of the vehi-
cle is not adapted to suit the conditions.
Thus, you should regularly check the
#
tread depth and the condition of the
tread across the entire width of all tyres.

Summer tyres: 3 mm

minimum tread depth is reached.
