2019 MERCEDES-BENZ S CLASS steering wheel

RThe tires maywearexcessively and/orunevenly,which maygreatlyimpair tiretraction.
RThe drivingcharacteristics, aswell assteering and braking, may be greatlyimpaired.
#Comply withtherecommended tirepressure andcheckthe tire pressure ofall tires includingthe spare wheelregu‐larly:
Rat least once a month
Rwhenthe loadchanges
Rbefore embarking on a longer journey
Rif operating conditionschange, e.g. off-road driving
#Adjustthe tire pressure as necessary.
Driving withtire pressurethat istoo high ortoolow can:
RShortenthe service life ofthe tires.
RCause increased tire damage.
RAdversely affect drivingcharacteristics andthus driving safety,e.g. dueto hydroplaning.
&WARNINGRisk of an accident duetoinsufficient tire pressure
Tires with pressurethat istoo low canover‐heat and burstas aresult.
In addition,theyalso suffer fromexcessiveand/or irregularwear, which can significantlyimpairthe braking properties andthe han‐dlingcharacteristics.
#Avoidexcessively low tire pressures inallthe tires, includingthe spare wheel.
Tirepressure which istoo low can cause:
RTiredefects as aresult ofoverheating
RImpaired handlingcharacteristics
RIrregularwear
RIncreased fuel consumption
&WARNINGRisk of accident fromexces‐sive tire pressure
Tires withexcessively high pressure canburst becausetheyare damaged more easilybyhighwayfill, pot holesetc.
In addition,theyalso suffer from irregularwear, which can significantly impairthe brak‐ing properties andthe handlingcharacteris‐tics.
#Avoidexcessively high tire pressures inallthe tires, includingthe spare wheel.
Excessively high tire pressure canresult in:
RIncreased braking distance
RImpaired handlingcharacteristics
RIrregularwear
RImpaired driving comfort

&WARNINGRisk of accident fromoverloa‐ded tires
Overloaded tires mayoverheat and burstas aconsequence. Overloaded tires can alsoimpairthesteering and handlingcharacteris‐tics and leadtobrakefailure.
#Observethe load-bearing capacity ofthe tires.
#The load-bearing capacity must be atleast halfthe gross axleweightrating ofthevehicle.
#Neveroverloadthe tiresby exceedingthe maximum load.
