Snow tyres
The use of snow tyres is recommended for driving on snow and ice. To preserve driving stability, mount snow tyres of the same size and tread pattern on all 4 wheels.
Snow tyres worn more than 50% are no longer suitable for use as snow tyres.
Snow tyres which do not meet specifications must not be used.
Caution
► Observe permissible maximum speed for your snow tyres and the legal speed limit.
Note
► The laws and regulations concerning snow tyres (driving speed, required
use, type, etc.) vary. Find out and follow the laws and regulations in the area
you intend to drive.
► If flange nuts are used on your vehicle, change to tapered nuts when steel wheels
are used.
