WARNING Risk of an accident due to
insuf ficient tire pressure
Ti re s with pressure that is too low can over‐

In addition, they also suf fer from excessive
and/or ir regular wear, which can significantly
impair the braking properties and the han‐

&WARNING Risk of accident caused by
re peated drop in tire pressure
If th e tire pressure drops repeatedl y,the
wheel, valve or tire may be damaged.
Insuf ficient tire pressure can cause the tires
to bur st.
#Inspect the tire for signs of fore ign
objects.
#Check whe ther the wheel or valve has a
leak.
#If yo u are unab leto rectify the damage,
conta ct aqualified specialist workshop.
Yo u can find information on tire pressure forth e
ve hicle's factor y-ins talled tires on thefo llowing
labels:
RTi re and Loading Info rmation placard on the
B‑pillar of your vehicle (→page 345).
RTire pressure table on the inside of the fuel
fi ller flap (→page 341).
Observ eth e maximum tire pressure
(
→page 352). Use a suitable pressure
gauge tocheck the tire
pressure. The outer appearance of a tire does
not permit any reliable conclusion about the tire
pressure.
Ve hicles with a tire pressure monitoring sys‐
te m: You can also check the tire pressure using
th e on-board computer.
Only cor rect tire pressure when the tires are
cold. Conditions for cold tires:
RThe vehicle has been par ked with the tires
out of direct sunlight for at least th ree hours.
RThe vehicle has tr aveled less than 1 mile
(1.6 km).
A rise in the tire temp erature of 18°F (10 °C)
increases the tire pressure byappr ox.10 kPa
(0.1 bar/1.5 psi). Take this into account when
ch ecking the tire pressure of warm tires.
The tire pressure re commendedfor increased
load/speed in the tire pressure table can af fect
th eride comfort.
&
WARNING Risk of accident from unsuita‐
ble accessori es onthe tire valves
If yo u mount unsuitable accessories onto tire
va lves, the tire valves may be overloaded and
malfunction, which can cause tire pressure
loss. Tire pressure monitoring sy stems for
re trofitting will cause the tire valve toremain
open. This can also result in tire pressure
loss.
#Only scr ewstandard valve caps or valve
caps specifically appr ovedby
