Tyres and Tyre Chains

The condition of the tyres plays a large role in the performance of the vehicle. Moreover, to prevent adverse effects to the drive assembly, please note the following:

Tyres

  • When replacing tyres, always replace all front and rear tyres at the same time.

  • All tyres must be of the same size, manufacture, brand and tread pattern. Pay particular attention when equipping snow or other types of winter tyres.

  • Do not mix tread-worn tyres with normal tyres.

  • Inspect tyre inflation pressures at the specified periods adjust to the specified pressures.

 


Check the tyre inflation pressure label attached to driver's door frame for the correct tyre inflation pressure.

  • Make sure to equip the vehicle with genuine wheels of the specified size, on all wheels. With 4WD, the system is calibrated for all 4 wheels being of the same dimensions.

Tyre chains

  • Install tyre chains to the front tyres.

  • Do not use tyre chains on the rear wheels.

  • Do not drive the vehicle faster than 30 km/h (19 mph) with the tyre chains installed.

  • Do not drive the vehicle with tyre chains on road conditions other than snow or ice.
