Mercedes-Benz S-Class 2023, Operator'S Manual

Page: 450 / 622

The tire pressure table shows the recommended
tire pressure for all tires approved for this vehicle.
The recommended tire pressures are valid for
cold tires under various operating conditions
according to the load and/or speed of the vehi-
cle.
If one or more tire sizes precede a tire pressure,
the following tire pressure information is only valid
for those tire sizes and their respective load con-
dition.
The load conditions "partially laden" and "fully
laden" are defined in the table for different num-
bers of passengers and amounts of luggage. The
actual number of seats may differ from this.
Some tire pressure tables only show the rim diam-
eter instead of the complete tire size, e.g. R18.
The rim diameter is part of the tire size and can
be found on the tire side wall (

Checking the tire pressure manually
#
Read the tire pressure recommended for the
current operating conditions from the tire and
loading information placard or the tire pres-
sure table. Observe the notes on tire pressure.
#
Remove the valve cap of the tire to be
checked.
#
Press the tire pressure gauge securely onto
the valve.
#
Read the tire pressure.
#
If the tire pressure is lower than the recom-
mended value, increase the tire pressure to
the recommended value.
#
If the tire pressure is higher than the recom-
mended value, release air. To do so, press
down the metal pin in the valve, e.g. using the
tip of a pen. Then check the tire pressure
again using the tire pressure gauge.
#
Screw the valve cap onto the valve.
