Choose a tyre appropriate for the
maximum speed of your vehicle.
The maximum speed is achievable at kerb weight with driver (75 kg) plus
125 kg payload. Optional equipment
could reduce the maximum speed of
the vehicle.
Performance 3 249.
Directional tyres
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.
Tyre pressure 3 255.
The tyre pressure information label
on the right door frame indicates the original equipment tyres and the
correspondent tyre pressures.
The tyre pressure data refers to cold
tyres. It applies to summer and winter tyres.
The ECO tyre pressure serves to
achieve the smallest amount of fuel
consumption possible.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and
fuel economy and will increase tyre
wear.
Tyre pressures differ depending on
various options.
For the correct tyre pressure value,
follow the procedure below:
● Identify the engine identifier code. Engine data 3 247.
● Identify the respective tyre. ● The tyre pressure tables show all
possible tyre combinations
3 255.

Vehicle care2255.Screw tyre inflation hose to valve.
6. Screw air hose onto compressor connection.
7. Switch on ignition. To avoid discharging the battery,we recommend running the
engine.
8. Press on/off switch on the compressor. The tyre is filled withsealant.
9. The compressor pressure gauge briefly indicates up to six bar
whilst the sealant bottle is
emptying (approx. 30 seconds).
Then the pressure starts to drop.
10. All of the sealant is pumped into the tyre. Then the tyre is inflated.
11. The prescribed tyre pressure should be obtained within ten
minutes.
Tyre pressure 3 255.
When the correct pressure is
obtained, switch off the
compressor by pressing the on/off
switch again.
If the prescribed tyre pressure is
not obtained within ten minutes,
remove the tyre repair kit. Move
the vehicle one tyre rotation.
Reattach the tyre repair kit and
continue the filling procedure for ten minutes. If the prescribed tyre pressure is still not obtained, the
tyre is too badly damaged. Seek
the assistance of a workshop.
Release excess tyre pressure
using ].
Do not run the compressor for
longer than ten minutes.
12. Push catch on bracket to remove sealant bottle from bracket. Screw
the tyre inflation hose to the free
connection of the sealant bottle.This prevents sealant from
escaping. Stow tyre repair kit in
load compartment.
13. Remove any excess sealant using a cloth.
14. Take the label indicating maximum permitted speed from
the sealant bottle and affix in the
driver's field of view.
15. Continue driving immediately so that sealant is evenly distributedin the tyre. After driving approx.
10 km (but no more than ten
minutes), stop and check tyre
pressure. Screw compressor air
hose directly onto tyre valve and
compressor when doing this.
If tyre pressure is more than
1.3 bar , set it to the correct value.
Repeat the procedure until there
is no more loss of pressure.
If the tyre pressure has fallen
below 1.3 bar, the vehicle must
not be used. Seek the assistance
of a workshop.
16. Stow away tyre repair kit in load compartment.

Technical data243Identification plate
The identification plate is located on
the left or right door frame.
Information on identification label:1:manufacturer2:type approval number3:vehicle identification number4:permissible gross vehicle weight rating in kg5:permissible gross train weight
in kg6:maximum permissible front axle
load in kg7:maximum permissible rear axle
load in kg8:vehicle-specific or country-
specific data
The combined total of front and rear
axle loads must not exceed the
permissible gross vehicle weight. For
example, if the front axle is bearing its
maximum permissible load, the rear
axle can only bear a load that is equal
to the gross vehicle weight minus the front axle load.
The technical data is determined in
accordance with European
Community standards. We reserve
the right to make modifications.
Specifications in the vehicle
documents always have priority over
those given in this manual.
Engine identification
The technical data tables use the
engine identifier code. The engine
data table additionally shows the
engineering code. Engine data
3 247.
To identify the respective engine,
refer to the EEC Certificate of
Conformity provided with your vehicle
or other national registration
documents.
The Certificate of Conformity shows
the engine identifier code, other
national publications may show the
engineering code. Check piston
displacement and engine power to
identify the respective engine.
