Tire inflation pressure
Information for your safety
It is not merely the tire's service life, but
also driving comfort and, above all else,
driving safety that depend on the condi-
tion of the tires and the maintenance of
the specified tire pressure.
Checking tire pressures
Only check the tire inflation pressures
of cold tires. This means after driving a
maximum of 1.25 miles/2 km or after
the vehicle has been parked for at least
2 hours. Warm tires have higher infla-
tion pressures.
Inflation pressures for original
tires
Tire pressures for the standard tires of
your vehicle are shown on the driver's
door post, visible when the door is
open.
Check tire inflation pressures reg-
ularly and correct them if neces-
sary: at least twice a month and before
beginning a longer trip. Otherwise,
incorrect tire pressures can cause driv-
ing instability or tire damage, ultimately
resulting in accidents. Do not drive on a
deflated, i.e. flat, tire. A flat tire greatly
impairs steering and braking response,
and can lead to complete loss of con-
trol over the vehicle.<
The inflation pressures apply to BMW-
approved tire sizes and recommended
tire brands. Your BMW center will be
glad to supply this information.
Inflation pressures for other tire
sizes
The following tire pressure table shows
all tire pressures for the given tire sizes
at ambient temperature.
After correcting the tire inflation pres-
sure, reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor,
refer to page 87.
