Wheels and Tires
GENERAL INFORMATION
CAUTIONS
Use only approved wheel and tire sizes. Using other sizes could damage the vehicle and will make the National
Type Approval invalid.
If you change the diameter of the tires from that fitted at the factory, the speedometer may not display the correct speed. Take the vehicle to your dealer to have the engine management system reprogrammed.
If you intend to change the size of the wheels from that fitted at the factory, check the suitability with your dealer.
Note: Check your tire pressures regularly to optimize fuel economy.
A decal with tire pressure data is located in the driver’s door opening at the B-pillar.
Check and set the tire pressure at the ambient temperature in which you are intending to drive the vehicle and when the tires are cold.
TEMPORARY MOBILITY KIT
Your vehicle is not equipped with a spare tire, but does include an emergency tire repair kit that can be used to repair one flat tire.
The tire repair kit is located in the
underfloor storage compartment. See
Storage compartments (page 140).
Note: Remove the underfloor storage compartment screws if fitted.
General information
WARNINGS
Depending on the type and extent of tire damage, some tires can only be partially sealed or not sealed at all.
Loss of tire pressure can affect vehicle handling, leading to loss of vehicle control.
Do not use the tire repair kit if the tire has already been damaged as a result of being driven under inflated.
Do not use the tire repair kit on run flat tires.
Do not try to seal damage other than that located within the visible tread of the tire.
Do not try to seal damage to the tire sidewall.
The tire repair kit seals most tire punctures
[with a diameter of up to six millimeters
(1/4 inch)] to temporarily restore mobility.
Observe the following rules when using the kit:
• Drive with caution and avoid making sudden steering or driving maneuvres , especially if the vehicle is heavily loaded or you are towing a trailer.
• The kit will provide you with an emergency temporary repair, enabling you to continue your journey to the next vehicle or tire dealer, or to drive a maximum distance of 200 kilometers
(125 miles).
• Do not exceed a maximum speed of
80 km/h (50 mph) .
• Keep the kit out of the reach of children.
• Only use the kit when the ambient temperature is between –30°C (-22°F) and +70°C (+158°F).

Using the tire repair kit
WARNINGS
Compressed air can act as an explosive or propellant.
Never leave the tire repair kit unattended while in use.
CAUTION
Do not keep the compressor operating for more than 10 minutes.
Note: Use the tire repair kit only for the vehicle with which it was supplied.
• Park your vehicle at the roadside so that you do not obstruct the flow of traffic and so that you are able to use the kit without being in danger.
• Apply the parking brake, even if you have parked on a level road, to make sure that the vehicle will not move.
• Do not attempt to remove foreign objects like nails or screws penetrating the tire.
• Leave the engine running while the kit is in use, but not if the vehicle is in an enclosed or poorly ventilated area (for example, inside a building). In these circumstances, switch the compressor on with the engine turned off.
• Replace the sealant bottle with a new one before the expiry date (see top of bottle) is reached.
• Inform all other users of the vehicle that the tire has been temporarily sealed with the tire repair kit and make them aware of the special driving conditions to be observed.
Inflating the tire
WARNINGS
Check the sidewall of the tire prior to inflation. If there are any cracks, bumps or similar damage, do not attempt to inflate the tire.
Do not stand directly beside the tire while the compressor is pumping.
Watch the sidewall of the tire. If any cracks, bumps or similar damage appear, turn off the compressor and let the air out by means of the pressure relief valve B . Do not continue driving with this tire.
The sealant contains natural rubber latex. Avoid contact with skin and clothing. If this happens, rinse the affected areas immediately with plenty of water and contact your doctor.
If the tire inflation pressure does not reach 1.8 bar (26 psi) within seven minutes, the tire may have suffered excessive damage, making a temporary repair impossible. In this case, do not continue driving with this tire.
CAUTION
Screwing the bottle onto the bottle holder will pierce the seal of the bottle. Do not unscrew the bottle from the holder as the sealant will escape.

16.
Make sure the kit, the bottle lid and the orange cap are stored safely, but still easily accessible in the vehicle.
The kit will be required again when you check the tire pressure.
17.
Immediately drive approximately three kilometers (two miles) so that the sealant can seal the damaged area.
Note: When pumping in the sealant through the tire valve, the pressure may rise up to
6 bar (87 psi) but will drop again after about
30 seconds.
WARNING
If you experience heavy vibrations, unsteady steering behavior or noises while driving, reduce your speed and drive with caution to a place where it is safe for you to stop the vehicle. Recheck the tire and its pressure. If the tire pressure is less than 1.3 bar (19 psi) or if there are any cracks, bumps or similar damage visible, do not continue driving with this tire.
Checking the tire pressure
1.
Stop the vehicle after driving approximately three kilometers
(two miles). Check, and where necessary, adjust the pressure of the damaged tire.
2. Attach the kit and read the tire pressure from the pressure gauge F .
3. If the pressure of the sealant-filled tire is 1.3 bar (19 psi) or more, adjust it to
the specified pressure. See Technical
4. Follow the inflation procedure once again to top up the tire.
5. Check the tire pressure again from the pressure gauge F . If the tire pressure is too high, deflate the tire to the specified pressure using the pressure relief valve B .

Wheels and Tires
TIRE CARE
To make sure the front and rear tires of your vehicle wear evenly and last longer, we recommend that you swap the tires from front to rear and vice versa at regular intervals of between 5000 and 10000 kilometers (3000 and 6000 miles).
CAUTION
Do not scrub the sidewalls of the tires when you are parking.
If you have to mount a curb, do so slowly and approach it with the wheels at right-angles to the curb.
Examine the tires regularly for cuts, foreign objects and uneven wear of the tread.
Uneven wear could mean that the wheel alignment is outside specification.
Check the tire pressures (including the spare) when cold, every two weeks.
USING WINTER TIRES
CAUTION
Make sure that you use the correct lug nuts for the type of wheel the winter tires are fitted to.
If winter tires are used, make sure that the
tire pressures are correct. See Technical
USING SNOW CHAINS
WARNINGS
Do not exceed 50 km/h (30 mph).
Do not use snow chains on snow-free roads.
Only fit snow chains to specified
tires. See Technical Specifications
CAUTION
If your vehicle is fitted with wheel trims, remove them before fitting snow chains.
Note: The ABS will continue to operate normally.
Only use small link snow chains.
Only use snow chains on the front wheels.
Vehicles with stability control
(ESC)
Vehicles with stability control (ESC) may exhibit some unusual driving characteristics which can be reduced by
switching traction control off. See Using
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM
WARNINGS
The system does not relieve you of your responsibility to regularly check the tire pressures.
The system will only provide a low tire pressure warning. It will not inflate the tires.

Wheels and Tires
WARNINGS
The system may take longer to detect low pressure in the tires if you have fitted snow chains.
Do not drive on significantly under-inflated tires. This may cause the tires to overheat and fail.
Under-inflation reduces fuel efficiency, tire tread life and may also affect your ability to drive the vehicle safely.
Do not bend or damage the valves when you are inflating the tires.
Have tires installed by properly trained technicians.
Note: After changing the tires or sensors the system will take a few minutes to reset.
During this period the system is operational but a warning lamp may appear.
Note: If you fit tires that do not have monitoring sensors, a message will be
shown in the display. See Information
Messages (page 102). Confirm this message
to deactivate the system.
The system monitors the pressure in the tires using sensors located on the wheels and a receiver located in your vehicle.
When the system detects low pressure in the tires, a warning message is displayed
in the information display. See
Information Messages (page 102).
If a low pressure warning message is displayed in the information display, check the tire pressures as soon as possible and inflate them to the recommended
pressure. See Technical Specifications
(page 262). If this happens frequently, have
the cause determined and rectified as soon as possible.
Checking the tire pressures
Note: If the tire pressures are greater than or equal to 3.3 bar (48 lbf/in²), you will see the + symbol below the pressure value. The system only measures pressure up to 3.3
bar (48 lbf/in²). The + symbol indicates that the tire pressures may be higher.
