Tire Inflation Pressure
Increased inflation pressures for heavy
loads produce favorable handling
characteristics with lighter loads and
are perfectly permissible. The ride of
the vehicle, however, will become
somewhat harder.
Warning!
A table (see fuel filler flap) lists the tire
inflation pressures specified for
summer and winter tires as well as for
the varying operating conditions.
Do not over inflate tires. Over
inflating tires can result in sudden
deflation (blowout) because they are
more likely to become punctured or
damaged by road debris, potholes
etc.. Follow recommended inflation
pressures.
Important!
Tire temperature and pressure increase
with the vehicle speed. Tire pressure
should therefore only be corrected on
cold tires. Correct tire pressure in warm
tires only if pressure has dropped be-
low the pressure listed in the table and
the respective operating conditions are
taken into consideration.
Tire pressure changes by approx. 1.5
psi (0.1 bar) per 18°F (10°C) of air
temperature change. Keep this in mind
when checking tire pressure inside a
garage - especially in the winter.
Do not overload the tires by
exceeding the specified vehicle
capacity weight (as indicated by the
label on the driver's door latch post).
Overloading the tires can overheat
them, possibly causing a blowout.
Example:
An under inflated tire due to a slow
leak (e.g. due to a nail in the tire) may
cause damage such as tread separation,
bulging etc. Regular tire pressure
checks (including the spare tire) at
intervals of no more than 14 days are
therefore essential.
If garage temperature = approx. + 68°F
(+
20°C) and ambient temperature =
approx. +32°F (0°C) then the adjusted
air pressure = specified air pressure + 3
psi (+ 0.2 bar).
Tire pressures listed for light loads are
minimum values offering high driving
comfort.
If a tire constantly loses air, it should
be inspected for damage.

Kathryn Looney on Sep 14, 2018. I would recommend this to a friend. Was good information. However made it difficult to print.

Was virtually impossible to get to next screen. Need to make it easier to use.
