Tire Inflation Pressure
A table (see fuel fille r flap or last
page) lists the tire inflation pressures
specified fo r summ er and w inter tires
as well as fo r the varying operating
conditions.
Im portant!
Tire pressure differs by approx.
0.1 bar/1.5 psi per 10° C/18° F of air
tem perature change. Keep this in
mind when checking tire pressure
inside a garage — especially in the
winter.

Example:
Room tem perature = approx.
+ 20° C /+ 6 8 ° F
A m bient tem perature = approx.
0° C / + 32° F
A dju ste d air pressure = specified air
pressure + 0 .2 bar/3 psi.
Tire pressures listed fo r light loads
are minimum values offering high
driving com fort. Increased inflation
pressures fo r heavy loads produce
favorable handling characteristics
w ith lighter loads and are perfectly
perm issible. The ride of the vehicle,
however, will become som ew hat
harder.
Tire tem perature and pressure in­
crease with the vehicle speed. Tire
pressure should therefore only be
co rre cte d on cold tires. C o rre ct tire
pressure in hot tires only if pressure
has dropped below the data listed in
the table and the respective operating
conditions are taken into considera­
tion.
