The tire pressure monitor is not able to warn you
ofas udden loss of pressure, e.g. if the tire is
penetrated by aforeign object. In the event of a
sudden loss of pressure, bring the vehicle to a
halt by braking carefully .Avoid abrupt steering
movements.
The function of the tire pressure loss warning
system is limited or delayed if:
Rsnow chains are mounted on your vehicle's
tires.
Rroad conditions are wintry.
Ryou are driving on sand or gravel.
Ryou adopt avery sporty driving style (corner-
ing at high speeds or driving with high rates of acceleration).
Ryou drive with aheavy load.
Restarting the tire pressure loss warn-
ing system
Restart the tire pressure loss warning system if
you have:
Rchanged the tire pressure
Rchanged the wheels or tires
Rmounted new wheels or tires
XBefore restarting, make sure that the tire
pressures are set properly on all four tires for
the respective operating conditions.
The recommended tire pressure can be found
on the Tire and Loading Information placard
on the B-pillar. Additionally, atire pressure
table is attached to the fuel filler flap. The tire pressure loss warning system can only give
reliable warnings if you have set the correct
tire pressure. If an incorrect tire pressure is
set, these incorrect values will be monitored.
XAlso observe the notes in the section on tire
pressures (Ypage 258).
XMake sure that the SmartKey is in position 2

Tire pressure monitor
General notes
If at ire pressure monitor is installed, the vehi-
cle's wheels have sensors that monitor the tire
pressures in all four tires. The tire pressure mon-
itor warns you if the pressure drops in one or
more of the tires. The tire pressure monitor only
functions if the corresponding sensors are
installed in all wheels.
Information on tire pressures is displayed in the
multifunction display. After afew minutes of
driving, the current tire pressure of each tire is
shown in the Serv.
menu of the multifunction
display.
Example: current tire pressure display
For information on the message display, refer to
the "Checking the tire pressure electronically"
section (
Ypage 264).

Wheels and tires
In addition to the warning lamp,amessage
appears in the multifunction display. Observe
the information on display messages
(
Ypage 196).
It may take up to ten minutes for amalfunction
of the tire pressure monitor to be indicated .A
malfunction wil lbeindicated by the tire pres-
sure warning lamp flashing for approximately
one minute and then remaining lit. When the
malfunction has been rectified, the tire pressure
warning lamp goes out after afew minutes of
driving.
The tire pressure values indicated by the on-
board computer may differ from those meas-
ured at agas station with apressure gauge. The
tire pressures shown by the on-board computer
refer to those measured at sea level.Ath igh
altitudes, the tire pressure values indicated by a
pressure gauge are higher than those shown by the on-board computer. In this case, do not
reduce the tire pressures.
The operation of the tire pressure monitor can
be affected by interference from radi otransmit-
ting equipment (e.g. radi oheadphones, two-way
radios) that may be being operated in or near the vehicle.

cally

If an emergency spare wheel is mounted, the
system may continue to show the tire pressure of the wheel that has been removed for
afew
minutes. If this occurs, note that the valu edis-
played for the positionw here the spare wheel is
mounted is not the same as the current tire
pressure of the emergency spare wheel.

If the tire pressure monitor detects apressure
loss in one or more tires, awarning messag eis
shown in the multifunction display. The yellow
tire pressure warning lamp then lights up.
RIf the Please Correct Tire Pressuremessag eappears in the multifunction display,
the tire pressure in at least one tire is too low.
The tire pressure must be corrected when the
opportunity arises.
RIf the Check Tiresmessag eappears in the

least one tire has droppeds ignificantly. The
tires must be checked.
RIf the WarningTireMalfunctionmessage

denly.T he tires must be checked.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in the
display messages in the "Tires" section
(
Ypage 196).
If the wheel positions on the vehicle are rotated,
the tire pressures may be displaye dfor the
wrong positions for ashort time. This is rectified
after afew minutes of driving, and the tire pres-
sures are displaye dfor the correct positions.
Restarting the tire pressure monitor
When you restart the tire pressure monitor, all
existing warning messages are deleted and the
warning lamp sgoout. The monitor uses the cur-
rently set tire pressures as the reference values for monitoring. In most cases, the tire pressure
monitor wil lautomatically detect the new refer-
ence values after you have changed the tire
pressure. However, you can also define refer-
ence values manually as describedh ere. The tire
pressure monitor then monitors the new tire
pressure values.
