Vehicle status
All-season or winter tires
Usage
All-season (or "winter") tyres improve handling in
winter weather conditions. They are characterised
by ‘M+S’ and a mountaintop and snowflake symbol
.
What you should be mindful of
For the best possible handling, use tyres on all four
wheels with a minimum tread depth of 4 mm.
Change winter tyres to summer tyres at the appro-
priate time. Summer tyres have better driving and
braking characteristics on snow- and ice-free roads
and at temperatures above 7 °C.
Usage conditions
If all-season tyres are installed that have a lower
speed category than the actual specified maximum
vehicle speed, then proceed as follows.
›
In infotainment, set the speed limit according to
the category of tyres fitted.
›
In the driver's field of view, ax a warning label
with the maximum value of the speed category in-
tended for the tyres fitted (applies only to certain
countries).
Settings
The speed limit setting for tyres is set in the infotain-
ment in the following menu item.
Or:
Snow chains
Usage
The snow chains improve driving in wintry road con-
ditions.
WARNING
Risk of accident as well as tyre damage!
▶
Do not use chains on routes that are free from
snow and ice.
What you should be mindful of
›
Before fitting the snow chains, remove the full
wheel trims.
›
Only mount the snow chains on the front wheels.
Technical data
Permitted rim/tyre combinations for mounting of
