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 260).
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 dt ire pressure for col dtiresu nder various
operating conditions, i.e .differin gloa da nd
spee dconditions of the vehicle.
If at ire size precedes atire pressure, the tire
pressure informatio nfollowing is onl yvalid for
thatt ire size. The load conditions "partially
laden" and "fully laden" ar edefine dint he table
for different numbers of occupants and amounts of luggage.T he actual numbe rofseats mayd if-
fer. 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 264).
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 :

and/or

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 buil dupofheata nd asud-
