Inspecting the tyre tread depth (includ-
ing spare wheel) and entering
This value may differ in individual countries as a result of
differing statutory requirements.
If the tyre tread depth is close to the legal minimum, in
other words if no further tread exists at the points around
the circumference of the tyre at which the 1.6 mm high
wear indicators are positioned, the customer should be
informed of the necessary repair measures.
Tightening wheel bolts to specific torque
Special tools, test and measuring equipment and
auxiliary items required
♦Torque wrench
Tightening torque for steel and light alloy wheels 120 Nm.
Inspecting the tyre inflation pressure (in-
cluding spare wheel) and correcting the
tyre inflation pressure if necessary
Special tools, test and measuring equipment and
auxiliary items required
♦Tyre inflation pressure tester
♦The tyre inflation pressures are indicated on a stick-
er,which is affixed to the inside of the fuel filler flap.
♦The tyre inflation pressures indicated on the sticker
apply only to the tyres when cold. Do not reduce the
higher inflation pressure of warm tyres.
♦If winter tyres are fitted, the relevant tyre inflation pres-
sure should be increased by 0.2 bar/20 kPa.
Tyre inflation pressure table
The instructions in the Workshop Repairs Manual always
have priority over those for the vehicle.

The specified tightening torque for the windscreen wiper
arms is 20 Nm.
Wiper arms of rear window: Inspecting park po-
sition, adjusting if necessary, spray nozzle of
rear window: Inspect setting and adjust if neces-
sary
The spray should strike the rear window as shown in the
illustration when the vehicle is stationary.

way that it is parallel to the edge of the ceramic
sprayed film (on vehicles with spray nozzles in the
windscreen wiper arm).
The spray should strike the rear window as shown in the
illustration when the vehicle is stationary.
–Set the position of the windscreen wiper arm in such a
way that it is parallel to the edge of the ceramic
sprayed film (on vehicles with spray nozzles in the ad-
ditional brake light).
The specified tightening torque for the windscreen wiper
arms is 12 Nm.
–Inspect setting of nozzle, if necessary adjust with a
tool, e.g. with a needle.
If the spray flows out unevenly, or if it cannot be adjusted,
replace the spray nozzle (repair measure).
