The specifications shown in the examples

in the tire pressure tables are only
examples. Tire pressure specifications are
vehicle-specific and may deviate from the
data shown here. The tire pressure
specifications that are valid for your vehicle
can be found on your vehicle's tire pressure
table.

The tire pressures in the tire pressure table
on the inside of the fuel filler flap are valid for
all approved tires installed at the factory,
unless stated otherwise.

The tire pressure table is valid for all approved tires

installed at the factory (example)

If the tire pressure precedes a tire size, the
tire pressure specification is only valid for this
tire size. The vehicle loading conditions
"partially laden" or "fully laden" are specified
using a differing number of persons and
luggage in the table. The actual number of
seats may differ from this.

Tire pressure table with tire sizes (example)

Some tire pressure tables only show the rim
diameter instead of the complete tire size,
e.g.

R18. The rim diameter is a component of

the tire size and can be read from the tire
sidewall (

Y

page 337).

i

For vehicles towing a trailer, the fully

laden value on the tire inflation pressure
label located on the inside of the fuel filler
flap is valid for the rear axle.

Warning

Follow recommended tire inflation pressures.
Do not underinflate tires. Underinflated tires
wear excessively and/or unevenly, adversely
affect handling and fuel economy, and are
more likely to fail from being overheated.
