The tyres can wear excessively and/or
R
unevenly.
The driving characteristics as well as the
R
steering and braking characteristics may
be greatly impaired.
Comply with the recommended tyre
#
pressure and check the tyre pressure of
all tyres, including the spare wheel, regu-
larly:
monthly
R
when the load changes
R
before embarking on a longer journey
R
if operating conditions change, e.g. off-
R
road driving
Adjust the tyre pressure, if necessary.
#
Tyre pressure which is too high or too low can:
Shorten the service life of the tyres.
R
Cause increased tyre damage.
R
Adversely affect driving characteristics and
R
thus driving safety, e.g. due to aquaplaning.
& WARNING Risk of accident due to repea-
ted pressure drop in the tyres
The wheels, valves or tyres could be damaged.
Too low a tyre pressure can lead to the tyres
bursting.
Examine the tyres for foreign objects.
#
Check whether the tyre has a puncture
#
or the valve has a leak.
If you are unable to rectify the damage,
#
contact a qualified specialist workshop.
Information on the recommended tyre pressure
for the vehicle's factory-fitted tyres can be found
on the tyre pressure table on the inside of the
socket flap ( page 431).
/
Use a suitable pressure gauge to check the tyre
pressure. The outer appearance of a tyre does not
permit any reliable conclusion about the tyre pres-
sure.
Only correct tyre pressures when the tyres are
cold. Conditions for cold tyres:
The vehicle has been parked with the tyres out
R
of direct sunlight for at least three hours.
Wheels and tyres 431
The vehicle has travelled less than 1.6 km.
R
The vehicle's tyres heat up when driving. As the
temperature of the tyres increases, so too does
the tyre pressure.
Vehicles with a tyre pressure monitoring system:
you can also see the tyre pressure in the driver's
display ( page 433).

Notes on trailer operation
Always inflate the rear axle tyres to the recom-
mended tyre pressures on the tyre pressure table
for increased load.
