230 Description of specifications
WARNING
Exceeding the maximum authorised weight and the load on the axles
could cause damage to the vehicle, accidents and serious injuries.
● The real load on the axles should never exceed the maximum permit-
ted.
● The load and its distribution in the vehicle have effects on the vehicle
handling and the braking ability. Always drive at a suitable speed.
CAUTION
Distribute the load as uniformly and as low down on the vehicle as possible.
When transporting heavy objects in the luggage compartment, these
should be placed as far forward as possible or over the rear axle to have as
little influence on handling as possible.
Information on fuel consumption
The consumption and emission values indicated do not refer to one specific
vehicle. They are only to be used to compare the values of the different ve-
hicle versions. The fuel consumption and CO
ly depend on the effective use of fuel. They also depend on your driving
style and other non-technical factors.
Calculation of fuel consumption
Fuel consumption and emission values are determined according to the cur-
rent version of the 715/2007/EC or 80/1268/EEC regulation and are valid
for the vehicle kerb weight. The specifications do not refer to an individual
vehicle. To measure the fuel consumption, two measuring cycles are carried
out on a rolling road test bed. The test criteria are as follows:

Measurement of the urban cycle starts with an engine cold
Urban cycle start. City driving is then simulated at between 0 and 50 km/
h (0 and 31 mph).
In the road cycle simulation, the car undergoes frequent ac-
celeration and braking in all gears, as in normal everyday
Road cycle
driving. The road speed ranges from 0 to 120 km/h (0 and
75 mph).
The average combined consumption is calculated with a
Combined weighting of around 37 % for the urban cycle and 63 % for
the road cycle.
The exhaust gases are collected during both driving cycles
CO emis-

to calculate carbon dioxide emissions (urban and road). The
sions of the
gas composition is then analysed to evaluate the CO
combination
tent and other emissions.
Note
● The kerb weight may vary according to the vehicle equipment. This
could raise consumption and the CO
● In practice, consumption values could be different to the values calcula-
ted based on the 715/2007/EC or 80/1268/EEC regulations.

Tyre pressures
The sticker with the tyre pressure values can be found on the inside of the
fuel tank flap. The tyre pressure values given there are for cold tyres. The
slightly raised pressures of warm tyres must not be reduced. ⇒
