New tires are needed (at the latest) when the
proledepthmeasures1.6mm.
Tires age even when used rarely or
not at all.
Tire manufacturers' recommendation
• Change tires after six years, regardless of
proledepth.
• Avoid striking curbs, potholes or other
obstacles.
Age of tires
Tires may not be more than six years old, becau-
se on the one hand your permission to drive the
camper at 100 km/h will elapse after this period
and, on the other, the material wears out due to
age and if the tires stand too long in one spot.
The 4-digit DOT number on the side of the tire (if
necessary, check the inside) shows the date of
manufacture.Therst2digitsrefertotheweek,
the last 2 to the year it was manufactured.

The correct tire pressure is given in
the table on wheels/tire pressure
found under "Technical Information"
or on the labels in the gas-bottle
container and on the wheel cover.
If snow chains are used, note the manufacturer's
assembly instructions.
You may not use snow chains if you
are using tire size 195/70 R 15 C.
