Tire inflation pressure
141n
Information for your safety
After correcting the inflation pres-
sure(s), always reinitialize the Flat
Tire Monitor, refer to page 99.<
The condition of the tires and the main-
tenance of the specified tire pressure
are crucial not only to the tire's service
life, but also to driving comfort and
most importantly, driving safety.
Checking pressure
Only check tire inflation pressure when
the tires are cold. This means after a
maximum of 1.25 miles/2 km driving or
when the vehicle has been parked for at
least 2 hours. When tires are warm, the
tire inflation pressure increases.
Inflation pressures for factory-
installed tires
The tire inflation pressure specifications
for your factory-installed tires at ambi-
ent temperature are listed on the edge
of the driver's door and can be con-
sulted when the door is open.
Check the tire inflation pressure
regularly and correct it as needed,
even on the spare wheel: at least twice
a month and before starting long trips. 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 driving
stability, but also lead to tire damage
and the risk of an accident. Do not drive
with deflated, i.e. flat, tires. A flat tire
will seriously impairs your vehicle's
handling and braking response.
Inflation pressures
The tire pressure tables in the following
pages give all of the pressure specifica-
tions for the tire sizes indicated at ambi-
ent temperature.
The inflation pressures apply to
the tire sizes and tire brands
respectively approved and recom-
mended by BMW; a list of these is avail-
able from your BMW Sports Activity
Vehicle center.<
Attempts to drive on a flat tire can lead
to loss of control over the vehicle.<
