8.1
Check wheel sensor, valve body and sealing
rubber for damage
Vehicles with tire pressure monitor (code 475)
Do not remove wheel sensor for this.
Do not use compressed air, solvents or
detergents to clean the wheel sensor. Wipe
off dirt with a clean, lint-free cloth only.
Do not retighten the female torx bolt and
union nut.
Replace all valve components of wheel
electronics if:
D
The wheel sensor mounting bolt or union
nut is visibly loose.
Replace the wheel sensor if:
D
The wheel sensor is obviously damaged.
D
Tire sealant was used.
Install new wheel sensors:

Mounting
10
Moisten rim flange and tire beads with soapy
water and align assembly head at a small
distance (X, Y) to the disk wheel
Only use soapy water for fitting and
removing tires.
11
Place tire obliquely on the rim and pull on
over the rim flange using the tire installer
Position wheels with wheel sensors so
that the wheel sensor is approximately 180°
opposite the mounting head.
Do not apply compressive force to the wheel
sensor otherwise it will be damaged.
Observe the running direction on tires with
specified running direction.
Put as little stress as possible on bead
area.
12
Align the match points of the tire and disk
wheel with each other and remove the disk
wheel with tire from the tire mounting device
13
Inflate tires without valve element up to max.
3 bar
Do
not
unscrew valve element on disk
wheels with tire pressure monitor sensor.
The tire must slide evenly over the safety
shoulders of the disk wheel, otherwise coat
the tire beads with soapy water again.
14
Screw the valve element into the valve (43g)
and adjust the tire inflation pressure to the
specified value
Observe the tire pressure information in
the fuel filler flap of the vehicle.

Checking condition of rim
P40.10-0259-01
1
Check inside and outside of wheel for dirt and clean wheel if necessary.
2
Check contact surface of rim for dirt and clean if necessary.
3
Check centering, spherical caps and rim flanges for damage. The spherical caps must be
free of grease.
Light-alloy rims
4
The rim flanges on light-alloy rims may exhibit increased levels of wear under the following
conditions:
High loads, operation with a trailer, insufficient tire inflation pressure, use of non-approved
tire makes or versions, contamination with dirt, sand and road salt.
5
The wear (X) must be no more than 1 mm.

Lower vehicle, correct tire inflation pressure
(including spare wheel)
In the case of loss of tire pressure,
determine cause and replace tire if necessary.
On versions with spare tire attached to
underside of vehicle, check tire inflation
pressure of spare tire before lowering the
vehicle.
