Tire pressure monitor
inoperative
No wheel sensorsThe Advanced TPMS is deactivated because
wheels without proper sensors were in-
stalled.Have the wheel sensors installed by an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
As soon as all wheels with sensors have been mounted, the
Advanced TPMS is switched back on after driving for several
minutes.
Tire pressure monitor
currently unavailableThe Advanced TPMS is unable to monitor
the tire inflation pressure due to:

a nearby radio interference source

the on-board voltage is too low

excessive wheel sensor temperatures
As soon as the causes for the malfunction are no longer present,
the Advanced TPMS automatically becomes active again after a
few minutes driving.
Warning!G
Do not drive with a flat tire. A flat tire affects
the ability to steer or brake the vehicle. You
may lose control of the vehicle.
Continued driving with a flat tire will cause
excessive heat build-up and possibly a fire.
