Wheels and tires

Tire inflation pressure

Information for your safety

It is not merely the tire's service life, but

also driving comfort and – to a great extent

– driving safety that depend on the condi-

tion of the tires and the maintenance of the

specified tire pressure.

Check the tire inflation pressure regu-

larly and correct it if necessary,

including compact wheel: at least every

two weeks and before beginning a longer

trip. If you fail to observe this precaution

you may be driving on tires with incorrect

tire pressures, a condition that cannot only

compromise your vehicle's driving stability,

but also lead to tire damage and the risk of

an accident.

Do not drive with a depressurized, i.e. flat

tire. A flat tire will seriously impair your

vehicle's handling and braking response.

Attempts to drive on a flat tire can lead to

loss of control over the vehicle.<

Checking the pressure

Only check tire inflation pressure when the

tires are cold. That means after a maximum

of 1.25 miles/2 km driving or when the

vehicle has been parked for at least 2

hours. When tires are warm, the tire infla-

tion pressure increases.

After correcting the inflation pressure(s),

always reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor,

refer to page 53.

Checking inflation pressure

The inflation pressures for your standard

tires can be seen on the door pillar when

you open the driver's door.

After correcting the inflation pres-

sure(s), always reinitialize the Flat Tire

Monitor, refer to page 53.<

Inflation pressure for other tire sizes

The table below provides all the correct

inflation pressures for the specified tire

sizes at ambient temperature.

For correct identification of the right

tire inflation pressure for your tires,

observe the specifications for the corre-

sponding tire size.<
