Aquaplaning
We recommend M + S radial-ply tires
for the winter season for all four
wheels to insure normal balanced
handling characteristics.
Parking
Depending on the depth of the water
layer on the road, aquaplaning may
occur, even at low speeds and with new
tires. Reduce vehicle speed, avoid track
grooves in the road and apply brakes
cautiously in the rain.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of personal injury
as a result of vehicle movement,
before turning off
the engine and leaving the vehicle
always:
On packed snow, they can reduce your
stopping distance as com-pared with
summer tires. Stopping distance,
however, is still considerably greater
than when the road is wet or dry.

If ice has formed on the road, tire
traction will be substantially
reduced. Under such weather
conditions, drive, steer and brake

whenever parking or leaving the
vehicle. In addition, move selector
