Information for your safety
Inflation pressures for standard tires

also driving comfort and – to a great extent

specified tire pressure.

including the spare tire: at least every two
weeks and before beginning a longer trip.
If you fail to observe this precaution you
may be driving on tires with incorrect tire
pressures, a condition that can not only
compromise your vehicle's stability, but
also lead to tire damage and the risk of an
accident.

can lead to loss of control over the vehi-

The inflation pressures for your standard
tires can be found on the door pillar when
you open the driver's door.
