3. Refit the dust cap.
NOTE
•
After a tyre has been inflated, always refit
the dust cap in order to avoid damage to
the valve from gravel, dirt, etc.
•
Only use plastic dust caps. Metal dust
caps can rust and become difficult to
unscrew.
4. Check the tyres visually for any implanted
nails or other objects that could puncture the
tyre and cause leakage.
5. Check the sidewalls for any cavities, cuts,
bumps or other irregularities.
6. Repeat this for all tyres, including the spare
tyre

.
NOTE
If you have over-inflated, release air by press-
ing in the metal pin in the centre of the valve.
Then check the pressure again using the tyre
pressure gauge.
Some spare tyres require a higher tyre pres-
sure than other tyres. Check in the tyre pres-
sure table or on the tyre pressure label.

Recommended tyre pressure
The tyre pressure label on the driver's side door
pillar (between frame and rear door) shows
which pressures the tyres should have at differ-
ent loads and speed conditions.
The decal displays the designation for the fac-
tory-fitted tyres on the car, as well as load limits
and tyre pressure.
Improved fuel economy with ECO pressure
For a light load (max. 3 people) and a speed of
up to 160 km/h (100 mph), the ECO pressures
can be chosen for optimum fuel economy. How-
ever, the lower comfort pressures are recom-
mended instead if optimum noise and travelling
comfort are desired.
