Check whe ther the wheel or valve has a
leak. #
Ifyo u are unable torectify the damage,
conta ct aqualified specialist workshop. Information on
there commended tyre pressure
fo rth eve hicle's factor y-fitted tyres can be found
on the tyre pressure table on the inside of the
fuel filler flap (→ page 430).
Use a suitable pressure gauge tocheck the tyre
pressure. The outer appearance of a tyre does
not permit any reliable conclusion about the tyre
pressure.
Ve hicles with a tyre pressure monitoring sys‐
te m: you can also check the tyre pressure using
th e on-board computer.
Only cor rect tyre pressures when the tyres are
cold. Conditions for cold tyres:
R The vehicle has been par ked with the tyres
out of direct sunlight for at least thre e hours.
R The vehicle has tr avelled less than 1.6 km.
A rise in the tyre temp erature of 10°C increases
th e tyre pressure byappr ox.10 kPa (0.1 bar/ 1.
5 psi). Take this into account when checking
th e tyre pressure of warm tyres.

Alw ays inflate there ar axle tyres tothere com‐
mended tyre pressures on the tyre pressure

re pressure table The tyre pressure
table is on the inside of the
fuel filler flap. The tyre pressure
table sho ws there commended
tyre pressure for all tyres appro vedfo rth is vehi‐
cle. The recommended tyre pressures apply for
cold tyres under various operating conditions,
i.e. loading and/or speed of theve hicle.
If one or more tyre sizes precede a tyre pres‐
sure, the tyre pressure information following is
only valid forth ose tyre sizes. 430

If
th e preceding tyre sizes are complemented by

These tyre pressures may impr oveyour vehicle's

increase slightl y.
The load conditions "partially laden" and "fully
laden" are defined in theta ble for dif fere nt num‐
be rs of passengers and amounts of luggage. The

tem
The sy stem checks the tyre pressure and the
tyre temp erature of the tyres fitted totheve hicle
by means of a tyre pressu resensor.
New tyre pressure sensors, e.g. in winter tyres,
are automatically taught-in during thefirs t jour‐
ney they are used. The tyre pressure and
the tyre temp erature
appear in the multifunction display
(→ page 431).
If th ere is a subs tantial pressure loss or if the
tyre temp erature is excessive, a warning will be
given:

The tyre pressu remonitoring sy stem is only an
aid. It is the driver's responsibility toset the tyre
pressure tothere commended cold tyre pressure

pressure for cold tyres using a tyre pressu re
