Tyre deflation detection
system If a tyre loses pressure, it becomes
smaller. It then rotates at a different
speed than the other tyres. If the
system
detects a difference in speed,
control indicator w illuminates red.
Deflation Detection System 3 177. Tyre pressure monitoring
system
A pressure sensor is integrated in
each wheel to monitor tyre pressure.
Whilst driving, the current tyre
pressures appear in the
Board
computer menu.
Deviating tyre pressure is displayed
in the form of a message in the
Info-Display.
Tyre pressure monitoring system
3 176. Adaptive Forward Lighting
The system improves lighting of
curves and increases the headlight
range.
The beam pivots based on steering
wheel position and vehicle speed.
At higher speeds and continuous
straight ahead travel, the beam
automatically raises slightly, thereby
increasing headlight range.
