Check and correct the tire inflation pressure

Initialize the Flat Tire Monitor, refer to 
page

, or reset the Tire Pressure Monitor,

Replace the damaged tire as soon as possi-
ble and have the new wheel/tire balanced.

Drive reservedly and do not exceed a speed of 
50 mph/80 km/h.
The driving characteristics change, for example 
reduced track stability on braking, extended 
braking distance, and altered self-steering 
characteristics in the limit range. In conjunction 
with winter tires, these characteristics are more 
pronounced.

Only one compact wheel may be 
mounted. Restore the wheels and tires to 

their original size as quickly as possible. Failure 
to do so is a safety risk.

all matters concerning the battery.

over during transport.
