A WARNING ,~
- If the tire pressure indicator appears in
the instrument cluster display, one or
more of your tires is significantly under
inflated. Reduce your speed immediately
and avoid any hard steering or braking
maneuvers. Stop as soon as possible and
check the tires and their pressures. In
flate the tire pressure to the proper pres
sure as indicated on the vehicle's tire
pressure label¢
page 249. Driving on a
signif icantly under-inflated tire causes
the tire to overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Under-inflation also is likely to impair the vehicle's handling and stop
ping ability .
- The driver is responsible for maintaining the correct tire pressures. You must check the tire pressures regularly.
- Under certain conditions (such as a spor
ty driving style, winter conditions or un paved roads), the pressure monitor indi
cator may be delayed.
-Ask your authorized Audi dealer if run
flat tires may be used on your vehicle.
.
(0 Tips
- The tire pressure monitoring system may
stop working when there is an ESC mal
function.
- Using snow chains may result in a system
malfunction .
- The tire pressure monitoring system on your Audi was developed using tires with
the "AO" or "RO" identification on the
tire sidewall
¢page 256. We recom
mend using these tires.
Reset tire pressure monitoring system
If the tire pressure is adjusted, wheels are ro
tated or changed, the TPMS must be reset via
MMI.
.,. Before storing the new tire pressures, check
that the current pressures on all four tires
correspond to the specified values and
Tires and wheels 265
adapt the pressures to the current load
¢page 249 .
.,. Switch on the ignition.
.,. Select in the MMI:
ICARI function button >
Car systems control button > Servicing &
checks > Tire pressure monitoring > Store
tire pressures > Yes, store now.
(D Tips
Do not store the tire pressure if there are
snow chains on the tire. Otherwise, a sys
tem malfunction may occur .
