Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center for
proper tire inflation pressure.

may vary from data shown in the illustration

If the tire inflation pressure drops
repeatedly:
i
Driving comfort may be reduced when the
tire inflation pressure is adjusted to the value for
speeds above 100 mph (160 km/h) as specified
on the tire inflation pressure label located on the
inside of the fuel filler flap.
ț
Check the tires for punctures from
foreign objects.
ț
Check to see whether air is leaking from
the valves or from around the rim.
Be sure to readjust the tire inflation
pressure for normal driving speeds. You
should wait until the tires are cold before
adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
Tire temperature and tire inflation pressure
are also increased while driving, depending
on the driving speed and the tire load.
Some vehicles may have supplemental tire
inflation pressure information for vehicle
loads less than the maximum loaded vehi-
cle condition. If such information is provid-
ed, it can be found on the tire inflation
pressure label located on the inside of the
fuel filler flap (୴ page 375).
If you will be driving your vehicle at high
speeds of 100 mph (160 km/h) or higher,
where it is legal and conditions allow,
consult the tire inflation pressure label on
the inside of the fuel filler flap (if available)
on how to adjust the cold tire inflation
pressure. If you do not adjust the tire infla-
tion pressure, excessive heat can build up
and result in sudden tire failure.
