placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly underinflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly underinflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Underinflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if underinflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately 1 minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.
Collapsible spare tire
The collapsible spare tire has no tire pressure sensor. When the collapsible spare tire is mounted on the vehicle, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) indicator light will flash in the instrument cluster display. The TPMS continues to monitor the other 3 wheels.
Tire storage
If the tires do not move for an extended period of time, the sensors will not transmit tire pressures to the system. This saves sensor battery life. When the ignition is switched on, the sensors transmit signals to the Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
WARNING
Incorrect tire pressure can cause sudden tire failure, loss of vehicle control and serious personal injury.
x Incorrect tire pressure can cause sudden tire failure, loss of vehicle control and serious personal injury.
x After that, always make sure that all 4 tires are inflated to the correct tire pressure for the tires installed on the vehicle.
x See the tire pressure label ⇒ Tire inflation pressure and the Owner's Literature for recommended cold tire inflation pressure and other important information.
x When replacing tires or wheel rims on vehicles equipped with TPMS, always read and
heed all of the information and WARNINGS ⇒ Tire inflation pressure.
NOTICE
x The wheel electronics are attached to special aluminum valves on the wheels. These valves are screwed on rigidly. Never bend the valves “into position” when checking and adjusting tire pressure.

Maximum power draw

Socket Maximum power draw
12 Volts 120 watts
115 Volts 150 watts (300 watts peak consumption)
The maximum power draw at any one socket must never be exceeded. Electrical devices should have information on them that says how much power they draw.
If 2 or more electrical devices are connected at the same time, the total power draw of all connected
devices must never be more than 190 watts ⇒ .
12 Volt socket
The 12 Volt socket works only when the ignition is switched on.
If the ignition is on but the engine is not running, the vehicle battery will be drained by any device that is plugged in and turned on. For this reason, never use the electrical sockets unless the engine is running.
To help prevent damage from voltage fluctuations, switch off all electrical devices connected to a 12 Volt socket before switching the ignition on or off or starting the engine.
The vehicle may have 12 Volt sockets at the following places:
x In the storage compartment in the front center armrest.
x In the rear center console.
x In the luggage compartment.
x In the storage compartment in the lower front center console.
115 Volt socket
The socket can only be used if the engine is running ⇒ .
Connecting an electrical device: Insert the plug as far as it goes into the socket in order to unlock the integrated childproof lock. There is electricity in the socket only after the childproof lock is unlocked.

LED display on the socket ⇒ fig. 132
Green continuous light: The child-proof lock is unlocked. The socket is operational.
Red flashing light: Malfunction, such as cutoff due to current overload or overheating.
Overheating cutoff
The inverter in the 115 Volt socket shuts off automatically above a certain temperature. The shutoff prevents overheating in case of excessive power consumption of connected devices or at high ambient air temperatures. The inverter switches back on automatically after a cool-down period. Connected devices which were left switched on come back on again. For this reason, switch off connected electrical devices if the inverter switches off due to overheating.

DANGER
Improper use of the 115 Volt socket can cause electrical shock, burns, and severe personal injury.
x Never spill liquids on the socket.
x Never plug an adapter or an extension cord into the 115 Volt socket. Otherwise, the integrated child-proof lock is switched off and the socket is live.
x Never stick anything that conducts electricity, such as a knitting needle, into the contacts of the 115 Volt socket.
NOTICE
x Follow the manufacturer's instructions for connected devices!
x Never exceed the maximum power consumption, or the entire vehicle electrical system may become damaged.
x 12 Volt socket:
– Only use equipment that has been tested for electromagnetic compatibility and complies with applicable guidelines.
– Never feed current into the socket with a solar panel, for example.
x 115 Volt socket:
– Do not connect devices or plugs which are too heavy, such as a grid power supply adapter or cord, directly onto the socket.
– Do not connect lamps containing fluorescent tubes.
– Only connect devices to the socket with voltage consistent with the voltage of the socket.
– For devices with a high starting current, the integrated over-current shutoff will prevent them from being switched on. In this case, disconnect the power supply from the device and reconnect after about 10 seconds.
Some devices may not work very well when connected to the 115 Volt socket due to low wattage.
Unshielded devices may interfere with radio reception or the vehicle's electrical system.

x Briefly press the  button on the multi-function steering wheel.
x Say the voice command in the language set in the Infotainment System.

Language: voice command
German: Hilfe Sprachbedienung
English: Voice operation help
French: Aide Système de commande vocale
Spanish: Ayuda Manejo por voz
Italian: Aiuto sistema di comando vocale
Portugese: Ajuda do comando por voz

x Follow the subsequent explanations and instructions in the voice dialog.
Control during voice dialog
While voice guidance is being provided by the Infotainment System, the microphone symbol “not active” (without the 3 lines) is shown on the instrument cluster display and on the Infotainment System screen.
x Briefly press the  button on the multi-function steering wheel to interrupt voice guidance from the Infotainment System and immediately say the next voice command.
You can only say a voice command when the  symbol “active” is displayed.
If a voice command is spoken incorrectly or incompletely and no action has been started as a result, the voice command can be repeated. The  symbol remains “active”.
x Briefly press the  button on the multi-function steering wheel to repeat the voice command.
Recording name tags
A name tag can be recorded as a voice command in some menus via the voice operation. Follow the instructions from the voice dialog. Avoid loud noises in the background when recording voice inputs.
Some voice commands are only available if the unit is in the right operating area.
Display of the help menus for the individual operating areas can be disabled
If a voice command has been misunderstood several times, it may be sensible to terminate voice operation manually by pressing the  button longer and to then start again.
