in the load compartment in its
position, always drive with a
closed rear floor cover and, if
possible, with folded up rear
backrests.
Otherwise, vehicle occupants
could be injured by objects being
thrown around in the event of hard braking, a sudden change in
direction or an accident.

servo unit will still be operational.

172Driving and operating
The permitted trailer loads apply up tothe specified incline and up to an
altitude of 1000 metres above sea
level. Since engine power decreases
as altitude increases due to the air
becoming thinner, therefore reducing
climbing ability, the permissible gross
train weight also decreases by 10 % for every 1000 metres of additional
altitude. The gross train weight does
not have to be reduced when driving on roads with slight inclines (less than
8 %, e.g. motorways).
The permissible gross train weight
must not be exceeded. This weight is specified on the identification plate3 226.
Vertical coupling load
The vertical coupling load is the load
exerted by the trailer on the coupling
ball. It can be varied by changing the
weight distribution when loading the
trailer.
The maximum permissible vertical
coupling load (55 kg) is specified on
the towing equipment identification
plate and in the vehicle documents.
Always aim for the maximum load,especially in the case of heavy
trailers. The vertical coupling load
should never fall below 25 kg.
Rear axle load When the trailer is coupled and the
towing vehicle fully loaded, the
permissible rear axle load (see
identification plate or vehicle
documents) for passenger vehicles
may be exceeded by 70 kg for the 5-
door vehicle and 60 kg for the 3-door vehicle, the gross vehicle weight
rating by 55 kg.
If the permitted rear axle load is
exceeded a maximum speed of
60 mph applies. If lower national
maximum speeds are specified for
trailer operation, they must be
complied with.
Towing equipmentCaution
When operating without a trailer,
remove the coupling ball bar.
Stowage of coupling ball bar
The coupling ball bar is stowed in a
bag in the spare wheel well and
secured to the lashing eyes in the
load compartment.
When inserting, fit protective cap over
rotary knob with key.

Vehicles with tyre repair kit
The tools are located together with
the towing eye and tyre repair kit in the load compartment below the floor cover.
On versions with rear carrier system
or double load-bay floor, the tools are
located together with the towing eye
and tyre repair kit on the right side of the load compartment, behind a
cover.
Vehicles with spare wheel
The jack, wheel bolt wrench and
some tools are located on the right
side of the load compartment, behind a cover 3 69.

Vehicle care199Wheels and tyresTyre condition, wheel condition
Drive over edges slowly and at right
angles if possible. Driving over sharp
edges can cause tyre and wheel
damage. Do not trap tyres on the kerb
when parking.
Regularly check the wheels for
damage. Seek the assistance of a
workshop in the event of damage or
unusual wear.
We recommend not swapping the
front wheels with the rear wheels and vice versa, as this can affect vehicle
stability. Always use less worn tyres
on the rear axle.
Winter tyres Winter tyres improve driving safety attemperatures below 7 °C and shouldtherefore be fitted on all wheels.
All tyre sizes are permitted as winter
tyres 3 237.
Tyre size 185/60 R 15 is only
permitted as winter tyre.In accordance with country-specific
regulations, affix the speed sticker in
the driver's field of view.
Tyre designations E.g. 195/55 R 16 95 H195=tyre width, mm55=cross-section ratio (tyre height
to tyre width), %R=belt type: RadialRF=type: RunFlat16=wheel diameter, inches95=load index e.g. 95 is equivalent

Directional tyres must be mounted so that they rotate in the correct
direction. The proper rotation
direction is indicated by a symbol
(e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.
Tyre pressure
Check the pressure of cold tyres at least every 14 days and before any
long journey. Do not forget the spare
wheel.
This also applies to vehicles with tyre pressure monitoring system.
Unscrew the valve cap.

202Vehicle care
If w illuminates at lower temperatures
and extinguishes after driving, this
could be an indicator for approaching
a low tyre pressure condition. Check
tyre pressure.
Vehicle messages 3 100.
If the tyre pressure must be reduced
or increased, switch off ignition.
Only mount wheels with pressure
sensors, otherwise the tyre pressure
will not be displayed and w
illuminates continuously.
A spare wheel or temporary spare
wheel is not equipped with pressure
sensors. The tyre pressure
monitoring system is not operational
for these tyres. Control indicator w
illuminates. For the further three
tyres, the system remains
operational.
The use of commercially-available
liquid tyre repair kits can impair the
function of the system. Factory-
approved repair kits can be used.
External high-power radio equipment
could disrupt the tyre pressure
monitoring system.Each time the tyres are replaced, tyre pressure monitoring system sensors
must be dismounted and serviced.
For the screwed sensor; replace
valve core and sealing ring. For the
clipped sensor; replace complete
valve stem.
Vehicle loading status Adjust tyre pressure to load condition according to the tyre information labelor tyre pressure chart 3 237, and
select the appropriate setting in the
menu Tire Load in the Driver
Information Centre (DIC), Vehicle
Menu 3 93.

TPMS Sensor Matching
Process
Each TPMS sensor has a unique
identification code. The identification
code must be matched to a new
wheel position after rotating the
wheels or exchanging the complete
wheel set and if one or more TPMS sensors were replaced. The TPMS
sensor matching process should also
be performed after replacing a spare
wheel with a road wheel containing
the TPMS sensor.
The malfunction light w and the
warning message or code should go
off at the next ignition cycle. The
sensors are matched to the wheel
positions, using a TPMS relearn tool,
in the following order: left side front
wheel, right side front wheel, right
side rear wheel and left side rear
wheel. The turn signal light at the
current active position is illuminated
until sensor is matched.
Consult your workshop for service or
to purchase a relearn tool. There are
2 minutes to match the first wheel
position, and 5 minutes overall to
match all four wheel positions. If it
takes longer, the matching process stops and must be restarted.
The TPMS sensor matching process
is:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition on.3. On vehicles with automatic transmission: set the selector
lever to P.
On vehicles with manual
transmission automated: Press
and hold brake pedal. Move and
hold the selector lever for
5 seconds in position N until P is
displayed in the DIC. P indicates
that the sensor matching process
of the TPMS can be started.
On vehicles with manual
transmission: select neutral.
4. Use the MENU button on the turn
signal lever to select the Vehicle
Menu in the DIC.
5. Turn the adjuster wheel to scroll to
the tyre pressure menu.
