2007 BMW 750LI reset

Technology for comfort, convenience and safety
90 There are two programs.
With each press of the controller, you can
switch back and forth between "Comfort" and
"Sport".
Comfort program
The Comfort program is suitable for use
throughout the vehicle's entire speed range and
regardless of load.
Sport program
You should select the Sport program for consis-
tently performance-oriented response from
shock absorbers and steering.
FTM Flat Tire Monitor*
The concept
The Flat Tire Monitor keeps track of the infla-
tion pressures in the four mounted tires as you
drive. The system triggers an alert whenever
the inflation pressure drops significantly in rela-
tion to the pressure in another tire.
When a loss of pressure occurs, the rolling
radius changes and with it, the rotational speed
of the wheels. This change is detected and sig-
naled as a flat tire.
Functional requirements
To ensure the reliable signaling of a flat tire, the
system must be initialized at the correct tire
inflation pressure.
The initialization must be repeated after
every correction of the tire inflation pres-
sure and after every tire or wheel change.<
System limits
The Flat Tire Monitor cannot indicate
sudden severe tire damage caused by
outside factors and does not detect a natural,
even pressure drop in all four tires.<
In the following situations, the system could be
delayed or malfunction:
>When the system has not been initialized.>When driving on snow-covered or slippery
road surfaces.
>Performance-oriented style of driving: slip
in the drive wheels, high lateral acceleration.
>When driving with snow chains
*.
Initializing system
The initialization is completed during driv-
ing, which can be interrupted at any time.
The initialization automatically continues when
driving resumes. Do not initialize the system
when driving with snow chains
*.<
iDrive, for principle details, refer to page16.
1.Select "Settings".
2.Select "Vehicle" and press the controller.
3.Select "Tires: FTM" and press the control-
ler.
The initialization menu appears.
4.Start the engine, but do not begin to drive.
5.Select "Reset tire pressure" and press the

6.Start driving.
It takes at least 10 minutes before the Flat
Tire Monitor is once again able to detect
and report a flat tire.
The initialization is completed during driving.
To exit the menu:
Select the arrow and press the controller.
Indication of a flat tire
The warning lamp lights up red and a
message appears on the Info Display. In
addition, a signal sounds. A flat tire or a
major air loss has occurred.
1.Reduce speed and stop the vehicle care-
fully. Avoid sudden braking and steering
maneuvers.
2.Identify the damaged tire.
If identification is not possible, con-
tact your BMW center.<
3.Replace the damaged tire, refer to Chang-
ing wheels on page215.
Run-flat tires*
1.Cautiously reduce the vehicle speed to
below 50 mph/80 km/h. Avoid hard braking
and steering maneuvers and do not exceed
50 mph/80 km/h.
If the vehicle is not equipped with run-
flat tires, refer to page205, do not
continue to drive. Continued driving after a
flat tire can result in serious accidents.<
2.Check the air pressure in all four tires at the
next opportunity.
If the tire inflation pressure in all four
tires is correct, the Flat Tire Monitor
may not have been initialized. The system
must then be initialized.<
3.In the event of a total loss of inflation pres-
sure, 0 psi/kPa, or obvious tire damage, you
can estimate the possible distance for con-
tinued driving on the basis of the following
guide values:
>With low load:
1 to 2 persons without luggage:
approx. 155 miles/250 km.>With medium load:
2 persons, luggage compartment full, or
4 persons without luggage:
approx. 95 miles/150 km.
>With full load:
4 or more persons, luggage compart-
ment full:
approx. 30 miles/50 km.
Drive reservedly and do not exceed a
speed of 50 mph/80 km/h. In the event of
pressure loss, vehicle handling changes. This
includes reduced tracking stability in braking,
extended braking distances, and altered natural
steering characteristics.
If unusual vibrations or loud noises occur while
the vehicle is being driven, this can indicate final
failure of the damaged tire. Reduce speed and
stop at a suitable location as soon as possible;
otherwise, pieces of the tire could come off and
cause an accident. Do not continue driving,
contact your BMW center.<
Malfunction
The warning lamp lights up yellow and
a message appears on the Info Display.
The Flat Tire Monitor has failed. Have
the system checked as soon as possible.
TPM Tire Pressure Monitor*
The concept
TPM checks the tire inflation pressure in the
four mounted tires. The system indicates if the
tire inflation pressure has dropped considerably
in one or several tires.
Functional requirement
In order to assure the reliable reporting of a flat
tire, the system must have been reset with the
correct tire inflation pressure.
Always use wheels with TPM electronics; oth-
erwise, the system cannot be assured of func-
tioning properly.
Reset the system again after each correc-
tion of the tire inflation pressure and after
every tire or wheel change.<

Technology for comfort, convenience and safety
92
System limits
TPM cannot warn you of sudden serious
tire damage caused by external influ-
ences.<
The system does not work correctly if it has not
been reset; for example, a flat tire may be indi-
cated even though the tire inflation pressures
are correct.
If a wheel without TPM electronics has been
mounted or if the TPM experiences temporary
interference from other systems or devices that
use the same radio frequency, then the system
is inactive and unable to report a flat tire.
Status display on Control Display
The tire and system status is indicated by the
color of the tires.
TPM takes into account the fact that the tire
pressure changes during driving. A correction is
only required if the color of the TPM display
indicates that it is necessary.
Green
The tire pressure matches the learned set state.
"Status: TPM active" appears on the Control
Display.
One wheel is yellow
There is a flat tire or a major drop in inflation
pressure in the indicated tire. A message
appears on the Control Display.
All wheels are yellow
There is a flat tire or a major drop in inflation
pressure in several tires. A message appears on
the Control Display.
Gray
The system cannot detect a flat tire.
Reasons for this can include:
>TPM is in the process of being reset
>Temporary interference due to systems or
devices that use the same radio frequency
>Malfunction
Resetting system
Reset the system again after each correc-
tion of the tire inflation pressure and after
every tire or wheel change.<
The reset process is completed during driving
and can be interrupted at any time. When driv-
ing resumes, the process resumes automati-
cally.
iDrive, for principle details, refer to page16.
1.Press the button to open the start
menu.
2.Move the controller toward "Settings".
3.Select "Vehicle" and press the controller.

ing driving. The tires are displayed in green on
the Control Display.
If a flat tire is detected during the reset-
ting and adoption of the tire inflation pres-
sures, all tires are shown in yellow on the Con-
trol Display. The message "Status: Tire low!" is
displayed.<
Low tire pressure message
The warning lamp lights up yellow. A
message appears on the Control Dis-
play. In addition, a signal sounds. A flat
tire or a major air loss has occurred.
1.Reduce speed and stop the vehicle care-
fully. Avoid sudden braking and steering
maneuvers.
2.Check whether your vehicle is equipped
with standard tires or run-flat tires.
You will recognize run-flat tires by a
circular symbol containing the letters
RSC on the side of the tire, refer to
page205.<
Standard tires
1.If all four wheels are shown in yellow, iden-
tify the damaged tire on the vehicle.
2.Replace the damaged wheel or wheels,
refer to Changing wheels on page215.
The spare wheel is equipped with the neces-
sary TPM electronics and when mounted, will
also be monitored once the system has been
reset.
Have the tire replaced by a BMW center or a
workshop that is familiar with handling TPM and
works according to BMW repair procedures
with correspondingly trained personnel.
Run-flat tires*
1.Cautiously reduce speed to below 50 mph/
80 km/h. Avoid hard braking and steering
maneuvers and do not exceed 50 mph/
80 km/h.
If the vehicle is not equipped with run-
flat tires, refer to page205, do not
continue to drive. Continued driving after a
flat tire can result in serious accidents.<2.In the event of complete tire pressure loss,
0 psi/0 kPa, you can estimate the possible
distance for continued driving on the basis
of the following guide values:
>With a light load:
1 to 2 persons without luggage:
approx. 155 miles/250 km
>With a medium load:
2 persons, luggage compartment full, or
4 persons without luggage:
approx. 95 miles/150 km
>With a full load:
4 or more persons, luggage compart-
ment full:
approx. 30 miles/50 km
Drive reservedly and do not exceed a
speed of 50 mph/80 km/h. In the event of
pressure loss, vehicle handling changes. This
includes reduced tracking stability in braking,
extended braking distance and altered natural
steering characteristics.
If unusual vibrations occur while the vehicle is
being driven, this can indicate final failure of the
damaged tire. Reduce speed and stop as soon
as possible; otherwise, pieces of the tire could
come loose and cause an accident. Do not con-
tinue driving, contact your BMW center.<
Malfunction
The yellow warning light flashes and
then lights up continuously. The tires
are shown in gray on the Control Dis-
play and a message is displayed. No flat tire can
be detected. Have system checked.
A message like this is displayed in the following
situations:
>When a malfunction is occurring.
Have the system checked.
>When a wheel without TPM electronics is
mounted.
>When TPM is experiencing temporary inter-
ference from other systems or devices that
use the same radio frequency.
