Tire pressure warnings and
messagesThe tire pressure monitoring system warns about
loss in pressure in two stages, depending on the
amount of pressure loss:
Stage 1 – Tyre pressure too low message
(3 to 6 psi (0.2 to 0.4 bar) loss in pressure)
Stage 2 – Flat tyre warning
(loss in pressure as of 6 psi (0.4 bar))
Warning!
Risk of accident. Tire damage may impair
road safety.
fStop the vehicle in a suitable place. Check the
tires for signs of damage and change them if necessary.
Example: If the tyre pressure display shows
„– 3 psi“, you must increase the tyre pressure by
3psi.
Tires lose air over time without a tire defect being
present. The tire pressure monitoring system will
then issue a corresponding message or warning.
fCorrect the tire pressure.
Message indicating tire pressure lossThis message indicates a pressure loss of be-
tween 3 and 6 psi (0.2 and 0.4 bar) if the wheel
positions have not been identified.
This message appears when the vehicle is station-
ary and the ignition is switched on again.
fThe message is displayed for 10 seconds or
fPress RESET switch.
Note on operation
fCorrect the tire pressure at the next opportuni-
ty. When correcting the tire pressure, add only
the pressure differences shown in the "Ty re
pressure" menu.
Message indicating tire pressure loss for
a wheelThe system has identified the wheel positions. The
deviation from the required pressure is displayed
for the corresponding wheel.
This message indicates a pressure loss of be-
tween 3 and 6 psi (0.2 and 0.4 bar).
This message appears when the vehicle is station-
ary and the ignition is switched on again.
fThe message is displayed for 10 seconds or

Ye s :
– In case of sealing-set operation, the menu
changes directly to the basic screen. All
settings are retained.

spare wheel or spare wheel, the warning mes-
sage “SYSTEM NOT ACTIVE, WORKSHOP” is
initially displayed for 10 seconds. The system
then returns to the basic screen.
No:
The display automatically returns to the menu
TYRE PRESSURE > SETTINGS.
fSet the mounted tire set with tire type and tire
size. The system will re-learn the tires.
No monitoringIn the event of faults the tire pressure monitoring
cannot monitor the tire pressure.
The warning light on the instrument panel and a
message on the multi-purpose display light up.
Monitoring is not active when:
– the tire pressure monitoring system is faulty,
– wheel transmitters for the tire pressure
monitoring system are not present,
– temporarily after changing a wheel,
– has detected too many wheel transmitters,
– there is external interference by other radio
sources, e.g., wireless headphones,
– tire temperatures are too high.
fPlease observe the chapter “WARNING LIGHTS
AND WARNING MESSAGES” on Page 108.fAll warnings and messages in the tire pressure
monitoring system are also indicated by the
warning light in the instrument panel.
The warning light goes out as soon as all faults
are remedied.
