Option 3) The
tire pressure for the
emergency/collapsible spare wheel
(depending on vehicle equipment) can be
found:
R
printed in yellow on the rim of the
emergency/collapsible spare wheel
R
in the "Wheel and tire combinations"
section (
Y
page 295) in this manual
R
on the Tire and Loading Information placard
on the B-pillar on the driver's side.
If the tire pressure is not set correctly, this
can lead to an excessive build up of heat and
a sudden loss of pressure.
For further information, consult a qualified
specialist workshop, e.g. an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
Important notes on tire pressure
G
WARNING
Should the tire pressure drop repeatedly:
R
check the tire for foreign bodies.
R
check whether the wheel is losing air or the
valve is leaking.
R
make sure that only a valve cap approved
by Mercedes-Benz is used on the tire valve.
Tire pressures that are too low have a
negative effect on vehicle safety, which could
lead you to cause an accident.
To test tire pressure, use a suitable tire
pressure gauge. The outer appearance of a
tire does not permit any reliable conclusion
about the tire pressure. On vehicles equipped
with the electronic tire pressure monitoring
system, the tire pressure can be checked
using the on-board computer.
The tire temperature and pressure increase
when the vehicle is in motion. This is
dependent on the driving speed and the load.
Therefore, you should only correct tire
pressures when the tires are cold.
The tires are cold:
R
if the vehicle has been parked without
direct sunlight on the tires for at least three
hours and
R
if the vehicle has not been driven more than
1 mile (1.6 km).
The tire temperature changes depending on
the outside temperature, the vehicle speed
and the tire load. If the tire temperature
changes by 18 ‡ (10 † ), the tire pressure
changes by approximately 10 kPa (0.1 bar/
1.5 psi). Take this into account when
checking the pressure of warm tires and only
correct the tire pressure if it is too low for the
current operating conditions. If you check the
tire pressure when the tires are warm, the
resulting value will be higher than if the tires
were cold. This is normal. Do not reduce the
tire pressure to the value specified for cold
tires. The tire pressure would otherwise be
too low.
Observe the recommended tire pressures for
cold tires
R
on the Tire and Loading Information placard
on the B-pillar on the driver's side,

in the tire pressure table on the inside of
the fuel filler flap,

WARNING
Follow recommended tire inflation pressures.
Do not underinflate tires. Underinflated tires
wear excessively and/or unevenly, adversely
affect handling and fuel economy, and are
more likely to fail from being overheated.
Underinflated tires can:
R
wear excessively and/or unevenly
R
adversely affect fuel economy
