Multi-Purpose Display and Instruments – in the sub-menu TYRE PRESSURE (filling infor-
mation):
as a required pressure for each axle if Tire
Pressure Monitoring has not yet been taught
the corresponding values,
– in the front left door aperture for each wheel,
– in the Technical Data chapter in this Owner’s
Manual: Please see the chapter “TIRE
PRESSURES, COLD (68 °F/20 °C)” on
Page 354.
If Tire Pressure Monitoring has been taught the
corresponding values, the deviations from the
required pressure are shown in the sub-menu
TYRE PRESSURE (filling information) indepen-
dently of the tire temperature. The correct tire
pressure adjustment can be made for a wheel on
the basis of this display information even if the
tires are warm.
Insufficient tire filling pressure can cause tires to
overheat when driving and thus be damaged –
even invisibly.
Hidden tire damage is not eliminated by subse-
quently correcting the tire pressure.
fFor this reason, always make sure that the tire
pressure is correct.
fFor further information on maintenance and
care of tires and wheels:
Please see the chapter “TIRES/WHEELS” on
Page 281.

ment monitoring on the multi-
purpose displayThe passenger compartment monitoring system
can be temporarily deactivated in the ALARM sub-
