Tire and LoadingInfor matio nplacard
:Recommended tire pressures
The Tire and Loading Informatio nplacard is on
the B-pillar on the driver's side (
Ypage 326).
The Tire and Loading Informatio nplacard con-
tains the recommende dtire pressures for cold
tires. The recommende dtire pressures ar evalid
for the maximum permissibl eloa da nd up to the
maximum permissibl evehicl espeed.
Tire pressure table
The tire pressure table is on the insid eofthe fuel
fille rflap. It shows the tire pressure for al ltires
permitted at the factory for thisv ehicle; see
illustratio n(example).
The tire pressure table contains the recommen-
de dp ressures for col dtiresfor various operat-
ing conditions, i.e .differin gloa da nd spee dcon-
ditions.
If at ire size precedes atire pressure, the fol-
lowing tire pressure informatio niso nlyv alid for
thatt ire size; see illustratio n(example).
The load conditions "partiall yladen "and "fully
laden" ar edefine dint he table for different num-
bers of occupants and amounts of luggage.T he
actual numbe rofseats mayd iffer.
Some tire pressure table sshowo nlyt he rim
diameters instea dofthe full tire size, e.g. R18.
The rim diamete rispartoft he tire size and can
be found on the tire sidewall (
Ypage 330).
If the tire pressures have been set to the lower
values for lighte rloads and/or lowe rroad
speeds ,the pressures shoul dbereset to the
highe rvalues :
Rif youwanttod rive with an increased load
and/or
Rif yo uwanttod rive at highe rroa ds peeds
The tire pressures for increased load sand/or
highe rroa ds peeds, shown in the tire pressure
table ,mayhave anegative effect on driving
comfort.
If the tire pressure is not set correctly, thisc an
lead to an excessive build-u pofheata nd asud-
de nlossofp ressure.
