General The
recognised
sections
of
the

If
there
is
an

the
vehicle's
speed
and
its

can
be
reduced
by
coming
off the

helps
you
to
develop
a
particularly
efficient
driving
style
and
to
save
fuel.
To
do
this,
the
driving
style
is
analysed.
The
evalj

is
performed
in
various
categories
and
is
shown
on
the
Control
Display.
Using
this
display,
the
individual
driving

can
be
adjusted
to
save
fuel.
General
The
current

is
evaluated.
To
support
an
efficient
driving
style,
ECO

tips
are
shown
during
the
journey.
Adapting
the
driving
style
can
increase
the
range
of
the
vehicle.
This
gain
in
range
is
shown
as
a
bonus
range
on
the

Tyre
inflation

General
A
tyre's
condition
and
inflation
pressure
influence the
following:
'xLifetime
of
the
tyre.'xDriving
safety.'xDriving
comfort.'xFuel
consumption.
Safety
note
WARNING
A
tyre
with
too
little
or
no
tyre
inflation
pressure
can
heat
up
significantly
and
sustain
damage.
Driving
properties,
for
example
steering
and
braking,
will
be
impaired
as
a
result.
There
is
a
danger
of
accidents.
Check
the
tyre
inflation
pressure
regularly
and
adjust
as
necessary,
for
example
twice
a
month
or
before
any
long
jourj
ney.
Tyre
inflation
pressure
information
On
the
door
pillar
The
tyre
inflation
pressures
are
shown
on
the
door
pillar
of
the
driver's
door.
The
tyre
inflation
pressure
data
applies
to
the
tyre
sizes
and
recommended
tyre
makes
which
have
been
classified
by
the
vehicle
manufacturer
as
suitable
for
the
respective
vehicle
type.
If
the
tyre's
speed
code
cannot
be
found,
then
the
tyre
inflation
pressure
for
the
corresponding
tyre
size
applies.
The
tyre
inflation
pressures
stated
for
the
rej spective
load
conditions
will
apply,
in
accordance
with
the
vehicle's
actual
load
condition.
Example:
for
a
partially
loaded
vehicle,
the
optimum
tyre
inj flation
pressure
is
the
one
stated
for
a
partially
loaded
vehicle.
When
the
vehicle
is
partially
loaded,
the
lowest
possible
fuel
consumption
can
be
achieved
with
the
ECO
tyre
inflation
pressure.

information
regarding
wheels
and
tyres
can
be
obtained
from
