MessagePossible causes/consequences and solutions
[Please Correct Tire Pressure] The tire pressure is too low in at least one of the tires, or the tire pressure difference between the wheels is too great. 1. Check the tire pressures at the next opportunity (see Wheels and tiresin the8. Do-it-yourself section)
2. If necessary, correct the tire pressure.
3. Restart the tire pressure monitoring system (see Restarting TPMSin the5. Starting and driving section)
[Check Tire(s)] The tire pressure in one or more tires has dropped significantly The wheel position is displayed in the vehicle information display
A warning tone also sounds.
WARNING
Underinflated tires pose the following risks:•The tires may burst, especially as the load and vehicle speed increase.•The tires may wear excessively and/or unevenly, which may greatly impair tire traction.•The driving characteristics, as well as steering and braking, may be greatly impaired.
There is a risk of an accident.
1. Stop the vehicle without making any sudden steering or braking maneuvers. Pay attention to the traffic conditions as you do so.
2. Secure the vehicle against rolling away.
3. Check the tires and, if necessary, follow the instructions for a flat tire (see Flat tirein the6. In case of emergency section).
4. Check the tire pressures and, if necessary, correct the tire pressure.
[Warning Tire Malfunction] The tire pressure in one or more tires has dropped suddenly. The wheel position is displayed in the vehicle information display.
WARNING
If you drive with a flat tire, there is a risk of the following hazards:•A flat tire affects the ability to steer or brake the vehicle.•You could lose control of the vehicle.•Continued driving with a flat tire will cause excessive heat buildup and possibly a fire.
