Driving and operation
Tyre pressure
Check tyre pressures, including the spare
wheel, at least every 14 days and prior to
any long journey; the tyres should be
checked when cold. Don’t forget to check
the spare.
Use the valve cap key to make unscrewing
the valve caps easier. The key is located on
the inside of the tank flap.
In vehicles with tyre pressure monitoring
system
3
there is an adapter in the valve
cap key. Screw adapter to valve before
attaching tyre pressure gauge, see
page 204.
Tyre pressure, see page 288 and the
adhesive foil
3
on the inside of the tank
flap. Have adhesive foil replaced after
changing to different tyre size.
Do not reduce tyre pressure when the tyres
are warm. Otherwise the pressure may
drop below the permissible minimum when
the tyres cool down.
After having checked the tyre pressures,
tighten the valve caps using the valve cap
key.
Incorrect inflation pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and fuel
economy and will increase tyre wear.
If the pressure is too low, this can result in
considerable tyre warm-up and internal
damage, leading to tread separation and
even to tyre blow-out at high speeds.
Hidden tyre damage is not eliminated by
adjusting the inflation pressure.

Warning
Incorrect tyre pressure could lead to a flat
tyre.
