Detected child seatsThe system generally detects children seated in
a child seat, especially in the child seats that
were required by NHTSA when the vehicle was
manufactured. After installing a child seat,
make sure that the indicator lamp for the front
passenger airbags lights up. This indicates that
the child seat has been detected and the front
passenger airbags are not activated.
Strength of the driver's and front
passenger airbag
The strength with which the driver's and front
passenger airbags are triggered depends on
the position of the driver's and front passenger
seats.
To maintain the accuracy of this function over
the long-term, calibrate the front seats when a
corresponding message appears on the Control
Display.
Calibrating the front seats
A corresponding message appears on the Con‐
trol Display.1.Move the respective seat forward all the
way.2.Move the respective seat forward again. It
moves forward briefly.3.Readjust the seat to the desired position.
The calibration procedure is completed when
the message on the Control Display disappears.
If the message continues to be displayed, re‐
peat the calibration.
If the message does not disappear after a re‐
peat calibration, have the system checked as
soon as possible.
Unobstructed area of movement
Ensure that the area of movement of the
seats is unobstructed to avoid personal injury
or damage to objects. ◀
Tire Pressure Monitor
TPM
The concept The system monitors tire pressure in the four
mounted tires. The system warns you if there is
a significant loss of pressure in one or more
tires. For this purpose, sensors in the tire valves
measure the tire inflation pressure.
Hints Tire damage due to external factors
Sudden tire damage caused by external
influences cannot be indicated in advance. ◀
Pay attention to the other information and indi‐
cations under Tire inflation pressure, refer to
page 168, as well when using the system.
Functional requirements The system must have been reset with the cor‐
rect tire inflation pressure; otherwise, reliable
signaling of tire pressure loss is not ensured.
Reset the system after each adjustment of the
tire inflation pressure and after every tire or
wheel change.
Always use wheels with TPM electronics to en‐
sure that the system will operate properly.
Status display On the onboard monitor, the current status of
the Tire Pressure Monitor TPM can be dis‐
played, e.g., whether or not the TPM is active.1."Vehicle Info"2."Vehicle status"3. "Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM)"
The status is displayed.
Status display The tire and system status is indicated by the
color of the tires and a text message on the
Control Display.
