heated rear window or other main consumers.
2. Charge the vehicle battery by driving continuously for a while or
by using a charging device.
The warning message or warning
code will disappear after the engine
has been started twice consecutively
without a voltage drop.
If the vehicle battery cannot be
recharged, have the cause of the fault
remedied by a workshop.

178Vehicle care
The use of commercially-availableliquid tyre repair kits can impair the
function of the system. Factory-
approved repair kits can be used.
External high-power radio equipment
could disrupt the tyre pressure
monitoring system.
Each time the tyres are replaced, tyre pressure monitoring system sensors
must be dismounted and serviced.
For the screwed sensor; replace
valve core and sealing ring. For the
clipped sensor; replace complete
valve stem.
Vehicle loading status Adjust tyre pressure to load condition according tyre information label or
tyre pressure chart 3 214, and select
the according setting in the menu Tire
Load in the Driver Information Centre,
Vehicle Information Menu 3 89.
Select:
■ Light for comfort pressure up to
3 people.
■ Eco for Eco pressure up to
3 people.
■ Max for full loading.
TPMS Sensor Matching
Process
Each TPMS sensor has a unique
identification code. The identification
code must be matched to a new tyre/
wheel position after rotating the tyres
or exchanging the complete wheel set
and if one or more TPMS sensors
were replaced. The TPMS sensor
matching process should also be
performed after replacing a spare tyre with a road tyre containing the TPMS
sensor.
The malfunction light and the warning
message or code should go off at the
next ignition cycle. The sensors are
matched to the tyre/wheel positions,
using a TPMS relearn tool, in the
following order: left side front tyre,
right side front tyre, right side rear tyre and left side rear tyre. The turn light
at the current active position is
illuminated until sensor is matched.
Consult your workshop for service or
to purchase a relearn tool. There are
two minutes to match the first tyre/
wheel position, and five minutes
overall to match all four tyre/wheel
positions. If it takes longer, the
matching process stops and must be
restarted.
The TPMS sensor matching process is:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition on.

3. Remove the electrical connectioncable and air hose from the
stowage compartments on the
underside of the compressor.
4. Screw the compressor air hose to
the connection on the sealant
bottle.
5. Fit the sealant bottle into the retainer on the compressor.
Set the compressor near the tyre
in such a way that the sealant
bottle is upright.
6. Unscrew valve cap from defective
tyre.
7. Screw the filler hose to the tyre valve.
8. The switch on the compressor must be set to J.
9. Connect the compressor plug to
the power outlet or cigarette
lighter socket.
To avoid discharging the battery,
we recommend running the
engine.
10. Set the rocker switch on the compressor to I. The tyre is filled
with sealant.
11. The compressor pressure gauge briefly indicates up to 6 bar whilstthe sealant bottle is emptying
(approx. 30 seconds). Then the
pressure starts to drop.
