apply for all tyres approved for this vehicle. If one or mor
etyre sizes precedes atyre pres-
sure, the following tyre pressure information is
valido nly for that tyre size.
Use asuitable pressure gauge to check the tyre
pressure. The outer appearance of atyre does
not give any reliable indicatio nofthe tyre pres-
sure.
You can also check the tyre pressure using the
on-board computer.
If possible, correct tyre pressures only when the
tyres are cold. The tyres are cold:
R if the vehicl ehas been parked with the tyres
out of direct sunlight for at least three hours
and
R if the vehicle has not been driven further than
1.6 km
Dependin gonthe outside temperature, the
vehicle speed and the load on the tyres, the tyre temperature and thus the tyre pressure changes by approximately 10 kPa (0.1 bar/1.5 psi )per
10 †. Take this into account when checking the
pressure of warm tyres. Correct the tyre pres-
sure only if it is too low for the current operating
condition.
Drivin gwithatyre pressure that is too high or
too low can:
R shorten the service life of the tyres
R cause increased tyre damage
R have anegative effect on handling character-
istics and thus driving safety (e.g. aquaplan-
ing)
The tyre pressure values given for low loads are minimum values that offer you good driving
comfor tcharacteristics.
However, you can also use the values given for
higher loads. These are permissible and will not
adversely affect the runnin gofthe vehicle. Tyre pressur
emonitor
General notes If
at yre pressure monitor is fitted, the vehicle's
wheelsh ave sensors fitted that monitor the tyre
pressures in all four tyres. The tyre pressure
monitor warns you if the pressure drops in one
or more of the tyres. The tyre pressure monitor
functions only if the corresponding sensors are
fitted to all wheels.
Information on tyre pressures is shown on the
multifunction display. After afew minutes of
driving, the current tyre pressure of each wheel
is shown in the Serv.
