increased, switch off the ignition. Tyre
pressures 3 182, 3 212.
General information The use of commercially available
liquid tyre repair kits can impair the
function of the system. Factory-
approved tyre repair kits can be used.

Operating electronic devices or being close to facilities using similar wave
frequencies could disrupt the tyre
pressure monitoring system.
The tyre pressure monitoring system
valve cores and sealing rings must be
replaced each time the tyres are
changed.
Tyre pressure sensor matching
process
Each tyre pressure sensor has a
unique identification code. The
identification code must be matched
to a new tyre/wheel position after
rotating the tyres or replacing one or
more of the tyre pressure sensors.The tyre pressure sensor matching
process should also be performed
after replacing a spare tyre with a
road tyre containing a tyre pressure
sensor. The control indicator w and
the warning message should
extinguish at the next ignition cycle.
The sensors are matched to the tyre/
wheel positions, using a TPMS
relearn tool, in the following order:
● left front tyre
● right front tyre
● right rear tyre
● left rear tyre
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 tyre pressure sensor matching
process is as follows:
1. Apply the electrical parking brake 3 143 ; on vehicles with automatic
transmission move the selector
lever to position P.
2. Turn the ignition on 3 125.
3. Initiate the TPMS Learn Mode by simultaneously pressing p and
q on the radio remote control,
- or -
Press INFO on the Infotainment
system until a tyre learn message appears on the Info-display.
Press and hold OK.
The horn sounds twice and the left front turn signal also illuminates
as confirmation that Learn Mode
has been enabled.
4. Start with the left front tyre. 5. Place the relearn tool against the tyre sidewall, near the valve stem.
Then press the button to activate
the tyre pressure sensor. A horn
chirp confirms that the sensor
identification code has been
