WARNING
Snow tyres should be equivalent in size and type to the vehicle's standard tyres. Otherwise, the safety and handling of your vehicle may be adversely affected.
We recommend you use snow tyres when road temperature is below 45°F (7°C). Refer to the below chart, and mount the recommended snow tyre for your vehicle.
If you mount snow tyres on your vehicle, make sure to use radial tyres of the same size and load range as the original tyres. Mount snow tyres on all four wheels to balance your vehicle’s handling in all weather conditions. The traction provided by snow tyres on dry roads may not be as high as your vehicle's original equipment tyres. Check with the tyre dealer for maximum speed recommendations.
Information
Do not install studded tyres without first checking local and municipal regulations for possible restrictions against their use.
The severe weather conditions of winter quickly wear out tyres and cause other problems. To minimise winter driving problems, you should take the following suggestions: Information Summer tyres are equipped to provide the best driving performance on dry roads, varying according to specification.
Since the sidewalls of radial tyres are thinner than other types of tyres, they may be damaged by mounting some types of tyre chains on them. Therefore, the use of snow tyres is recommended instead of tyre chains.
WARNING Over-inflation or under-inflation can reduce tyre life, adversely affect vehicle handling, and lead to sudden tyre failure that may cause loss of vehicle control resulting in an accident. Each tyre, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by
CAUTION Detach the speed restriction label (1) from the sealant bottle (2), and place it in a highly visible place inside the vehicle such as on the steering wheel to remind the driver not to drive too fast. 1. Shake the sealant bottle (2).
