Volkswagen Polo Service & Repair Manual: EU Tire Label, Short Overview
| Starting on 11/1/2012, tire manufacturers must comply with the new EU Regulation (EG) 1222/2009 (Tire Labeling Regulation). |

The goal of this is to increase safety and ecological and economical road transport efficiency by using tires that are safer, quieter and use less fuel. |
