WARNING Risk of accident due to repea-
ted pressure drop in the tires
The wheels, valves or tires could be damaged.
Too low a tire pressure can lead to the tires
bursting.
#
Examine the tires for foreign objects.
#
Check whether the tire has a puncture or
the valve has a leak.
#
If you are unable to rectify the damage,
contact a qualified specialist workshop.
You can find information on tire pressure for the
vehicle's factory-installed tires on the following
labels:
R
Tire and loading information placard on the
B‑pillar of your vehicle (
/
page 451).
R
Tire pressure table on the inside of the fuel
filler flap (
/
page 447).
Observe the maximum tire pressure
(
/
page 457).
Use a suitable pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure. The outer appearance of a tire does not
permit any reliable conclusion about the tire pres-
sure.
Only correct the tire pressure when the tires are
cold. Conditions for cold tires:
R
The vehicle has been parked with the tires out
of direct sunlight for at least three hours.
R
The vehicle has traveled less than 1 mile
(1.6 km).
The vehicle's tires heat up when driving. As the
temperature of the tires increases, so too does
the tire pressure.
Vehicles with a tire pressure monitoring system:
you can also see the tire pressure in the driver's
display (
/
page 450).
The tire pressure recommended for increased
load/speed in the tire pressure table can affect
the ride comfort.

WARNING Risk of accident due to unsuita-
ble accessories on tire valves
If you mount unsuitable accessories onto tire
valves, the tire valves may be overloaded and
malfunction, which can cause tire pressure
loss.
#
Only screw standard valve caps or valve
caps specifically approved by Mercedes-
Benz for your vehicle onto the tire valve.
