WARNING Risk of accident from repea‐
te d tyre pressure drop
If th e tyre pressure drops repeatedl y,the
wheel, valve or tyre may be damaged.
Insuf ficient tyre pressure can cause the tyres
to bur st. #
Inspect the tyre for signs of fore ign
objects. #
Check whe ther the wheel or valve has a
leak. #
Ifyo u are unable torectify the damage,
conta ct aqualified specialist workshop. Information on
there commended tyre pressure
fo rth eve hicle's factor y-fitted tyres can be found
on the tyre pressure table on the inside of the
fuel filler flap (→ page 390).
Use a suitable pressure gauge tocheck the tyre
pressure. The outer appearance of a tyre does
not permit any reliable conclusion about the tyre
pressure.
Ve hicles with a tyre pressure monitoring sys‐
te m: You can also check the tyre pressure using
th e on-board computer.
Only cor rect tyre pressures when the tyres are
cold. Conditions for cold tyres:
R The vehicle has been par ked with the tyres
out of direct sunlight for at least thre e hours.
R The vehicle has tr avelled less than 1.6 km.
A rise in the tyre temp erature of 10°C increases
th e tyre pressure byappr ox.10 kPa (0.1 ba r,1.
5 psi). Take this into account when checking
th e tyre pressure of warm tyres.

The tyre pressure
table sho ws there commended
tyre pressure for all tyres appro vedfo rth is vehi‐
cle. The recommended tyre pressures apply for
cold tyres under various operating conditions,
i.e. loading and/or speed of theve hicle.
If one or more tyre sizes precede a tyre pres‐
sure, the tyre pressure information following is
only valid forth ose tyre sizes. If
th e preceding tyre sizes are complemented by
th e+ symbol, the tyre pressure information
fo llowing sho wsalternative tyre pressures.
These tyre pressures may impr oveyour vehicle's
ri de comfort. Fuel consum ption may then
increase slightl y.
The load conditions "partially laden" and "fully
laden" are defined in theta ble for dif fere nt num‐
be rs of passengers and amounts of luggage. The
actual number of seats may dif fer from this.

tem
The sy stem checks the tyre pressure and the
tyre temp erature of the tyres fitted totheve hicle
by means of a tyre pressu resensor.
New tyre pressure sensors, e.g. in winter tyres,
are automatically taught-in thefirs t time they are
driven. The tyre pressure appears in
the multifunction
display (→ page 237).
If th ere is a subs tantial pressure loss or if the
tyre temp erature is excessive, a warning will be
given:

It is the driver's responsibility toset the tyre

pressure for cold tyres using a tyre pressu re
ga uge. Notethat the cor rect tyre pressure for

The special tyre tread in combination with
th e optimised tyre compound, means that
th erisk of skidding or hydroplaning on wet
ro ads is inc reased.
In addition, the tyre grip is greatly reduced at
a low outside temp erature and tyre running

R Rear wheels wear more in the cent reofthe
tyre
On vehicles with the same front and rear wheel
size, you can inter change the wheels every
5000 to10000 km, depending on thewe ar.
Ensure the direction of rotation is maintained for
th e wheels. It is imperative
toobser vethe instructions and
