298 OperationTires and wheelsReactivating the TPMS
The TPMS must be reactivated when you
have adjusted the tire inflation pressure to
a new level (e.g. because of different load
or driving conditions). The TPMS is then
recalibrated to the current tire inflation
pressures.
Using the tire placard on the driver’s
door B-pillar (
page 285) or, if avail-
able, the supplemental tire pressure
information on the inside of the fuel fill-
er flap (
page 269), make sure the tire
inflation pressure of all four tires is cor-
rect.
Press buttonè orÿ on the mul-
tifunction steering wheel repeatedly
until the standard display menu ap-
pears in the multifunction display
(page 140).
Press thej or kbutton repeat-
edly until you see the flowing message:Tire pressure
monitor active
Reactivation possible:
R-button
Press the reset button.
The following message will appear in
the multifunction display:Check current
tire pressure?
Warning!
G
It is the driver’s responsibility to calibrate
the TPMS on the recommended cold infla-
tion pressure. Underinflated tires affect the
ability to steer or brake the vehicle. You
might loose control over the vehicle.
iReactivate the TPMS after adjusting
the tire inflation pressure to the infla-
tion pressure recommended for the
vehicle operating condition. Tire pres-
sure should only be adjusted on cold
tires. Observe the recommended tire
inflation pressure on the placard on the
driver’s door B-pillar (
page 285).
Some vehicles may have supplemental
tire pressure information for driving at
high speeds (
page 292) or for vehicle
loads less than the maximum loaded
vehicle condition (
page 292). If such
information is provided, it can be found
on the inside of the fuel filler flap.
