WARNING Risk of accident from repea‐
ted tyre pressure drop
If the tyre pressure drops repeatedly, the
wheel, valve or tyre may be damaged.
Insufficient tyre pressure can cause the tyres
to burst.
#
Inspect the tyre for signs of foreign
objects.
#
Check whether the wheel or valve has a
leak.
#
If you are unable to rectify the damage,
contact a qualified specialist workshop.
Information on the recommended tyre pressure
for the vehicle's factory-fitted tyres can be found
on the tyre pressure table on the inside of the
fuel filler flap (
/
page 323).
Use a suitable pressure gauge to check the tyre
pressure. The outer appearance of a tyre does
not permit any reliable conclusion about the tyre
pressure.
Only correct tyre pressures when the tyres are
cold. Conditions for cold tyres:
R
The vehicle has been parked with the tyres
out of direct sunlight for at least three hours.
R
The vehicle has travelled less than 1.6 km.
The vehicle's tyres heat up when driving. As the
temperature of the tyres increases, so too does
the tyre pressure.
Vehicles with a tyre pressure monitoring sys‐
tem: you can also check the tyre pressure using
the on-board computer.
Tyre pressure table
The tyre pressure table is on the inside of the
fuel filler flap.
If one or more tyre sizes precede a tyre pres‐
sure, the following tyre pressure information is
only valid for those tyre sizes and their respec‐
tive load condition.
If the preceding tyre sizes are complemented by
the + symbol, the tyre pressure information
following shows alternative tyre pressures. Fuel
consumption may then increase slightly.
