220 Vehicle care
If the wheel covers and tyres used are
not factory approved, the tyres must
not have a rim protection ridge.
Wheel covers must not impair brake
cooling.
9 Warning
Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel
covers could lead to sudden
pressure loss and thereby
accidents.
Wheel caps
Tyres of size 245/35 R20 have a
specific wheel cap. To remove the
cap from the dismantled wheel first
disengage the arms one by one. Then
press the cap in the middle area from
behind and remove it.
To assemble first adjust the wheel
cap in order that the positioning leg
fits into the recess.
Tyre chains
Tyre chains are only permitted on the
front wheels.
Always use fine mesh chains that add
no more than 10 mm to the tyre tread
and the inboard sides (including chain
lock).

tyres of size 205/60 R 16,
