4.2.1 Wheels and tires

Proper working of the brakes depends on the state of the tires, that can change due to
wear and contamination (water, oil, mud, ...).
•
Keep your wheels free of wires, hair, sand and carpet fibres.
•
Check the profile of the tyre. If the tread depth is less than 1 mm, the tyres need to be
replaced. Contact your specialist dealer for this matter.
