TYRES
(3/3)
Changing the position of the
wheels
It is strongly recommended that you do
not change the position of the wheels.
Use in winter
Chains
For safety reasons, fitting snow
chains to the rear axle is strictly for-
bidden.
Fitting larger tyres than the original
ones will prevent chains from being
fitted.
Snow or Winter tyres
We would recommend that these be
fitted to all four wheels to ensure that
your vehicle retains maximum adhe-
sion.
Warning: these tyres may be asym-
metrical "snow" tyres (for use in winter),
with different inside and outside proper-
ties. Check the direction of rotation and
the INSIDE/OUTSIDE markings on the
tyre sidewall before fitting it.
The maximum speed code for these
"snow" tyres (for use in winter) may be
lower than the maximum speed for your
vehicle. It consists of several letters
shown on the tyre sidewall.
Studded tyres
This type of equipment may only be
used for a limited period and as laid
down by local legislation. It is neces-
sary to observe the speed specified by
current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be
fitted to the two front wheels.
Chains may only be fitted
to tyres of the same size
as those originally fitted to
your vehicle.
If your vehicle is originally fitted
with tyres with a diameter of 17",
snow chains may be used but only if
specific chains are used. Consult an
approved dealer.
If your vehicle is fitted with tyres
with a diameter of 18", consult an
approved dealer to find out if snow
chains can be used.
In all cases, consult an approved
Dealer who will be able to advise
you to select the best equipment
(snow tyres, chains, etc.) for your
vehicle.
Vehicles fitted with the
tyre pressure monitor
Each of the sensors incor-
porated in the valves is ded-
icated to a single wheel: under no
circumstances should you swap the
wheels, without having the system
reset.
There is a risk of incorrect informa-
tion which could have serious con-
sequences.
