After an emergency spare wheel has been fitted,
the system may still display the tyre pressure of
the removed wheel for a few minutes. If this
occurs, note that the value displayed for the
position where the spare wheel is fitted is not
the same as the current tyre pressure of the
emergency spare wheel.
Warning messages of the tyre pressure
monitor If the tyre pressure monitor detects a pressure
loss in one or more tyres, a warning message is
shown in the multifunction display. The yellow
tyre pressure warning lamp then lights up:
R If the Rectify tyre pressure Rectify tyre pressure message
appears in the multifunction display, the tyre
pressure in at least one tyre is too low. The
tyre pressure must be corrected when the
opportunity arises.
R If the Check
Check tyre(s)
tyre(s) message appears in the
multifunction display, the tyre pressure in at
least one tyre has dropped significantly. The
tyres must be checked.
R If the Warning tyre defect
Warning tyre defect message
appears in the multifunction display, the tyre
pressure in at least one tyre has dropped sud- denly. The tyres must be checked.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in the display messages under "Tyres" (Y page 283).
If the position of the wheels on the vehicle is
changed, the tyre pressures may be displayed in
the wrong positions for a short time. After a few minutes of driving, this is rectified and the tyre
pressures are displayed in the correct positions. Restarting the tyre pressure monitor When you restart the tyre pressure monitor, all
existing warning messages are deleted and the
warning lamps go out. The monitor uses the cur-
rently set tyre pressures as the reference values
for monitoring. In most cases, the tyre pressure monitor will automatically detect the new refer- ence values after you have changed the tyre
pressure. However, you can also set reference
values manually as described here. The tyre
pressure monitor then monitors the new tyre
pressure values.
X Use the table on the inside of the fuel filler flap
to ensure that the tyre pressure is set cor-
rectly in all four tyres for the current operating
conditions.
Also observe the notes in the section on tyre
pressures (Y page 364).
