176 Vehicle careV = up to 150 mphW = up to 168 mphTyre pressureCheck the pressure of cold tyres atleast every 14 days and before anylong journey. Do not forget the sparewheel. This also applies to vehicleswith tyre pressure monitoring system.Use the valve cap key to makeunscrewing the valve caps easier.The valve cap key is located on theinside of the tank flap.Tyre pressure 3 207.The tyre pressure data refers to coldtyres. It applies to summer and wintertyres.Always inflate the spare tyre to thepressure specified for full load.The ECO tyre pressure serves toachieve the smallest amount of fuelconsumption possible.Incorrect tyre pressures will impairsafety, vehicle handling, comfort andfuel economy and will increase tyrewear.The tyre pressure tables show allpossible tyre combinations 3 207.For the tyres approved for yourvehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate ofConformity provided with your vehicleor other national registrationdocuments.The driver is responsible for correctadjustment of tyre pressure.9 WarningIf the pressure is too low, this canresult in considerable tyre warm-up and internal damage, leading totread separation and even to tyreblow-out at high speeds.If the tyre pressure shall be reducedor increased on a vehicle with tyrepressure monitoring system, switchoff ignition.Tyre pressure monitoringsystemThe tyre pressure monitoring systemchecks the pressure of all four wheelsonce per minute when vehicle speedexceeds a certain limit.CautionTyre pressure monitoring systemwarns only about low tyre pressurecondition and does not replaceregular tyre maintenance by thedriver.All wheels must be equipped withpressure sensors and the tyres musthave the prescribed pressure. Ifwheels without sensors are mounted,the tyre pressure monitoring systemis not operational. Retrofitting ofsensors is possible.NoteIn countries where the tyre pressuremonitoring system is legallyrequired, the use of wheels withoutpressure sensors will invalidate thevehicle type approval.
