Important safety notes The tire pressure warning system does not warn
you of an incorrectly set tire pressure. Observe
the notes on the recommended tire pressure
( Y
page 290).
The tire pressure loss warning does not replace
the need to regularly check the tire pressure. An
even loss of pressure on several tires at the
same time cannot be detected by the tire pres-
sure loss warning system.
The tire pressure monitor is not able to warn you
of as udden loss of pressure, e.g. if the tire is
penetrated by af oreign object. In the event of a
sudden loss of pressure, bring the vehicle to a
halt by braking carefully .A void abrupt steering
movements.
The function of the tire pressure loss warning
system is limited or delayed if: R
snow chains are mounted on your vehicle's
tires. R
road conditions are wintry. R
you are driving on sand or gravel. R
you adopt av ery sporty driving style (corner-
ing at high speeds or driving with high rates of
acceleration). R
you are driving with ah eavy load (in the vehi-
cle or on the roof)
Restarting the tire pressure loss warn-
ing system Restart the tire pressure loss warning system if
you have: R
changed the tire pressure R
changed the wheels or tires R
mounted new wheels or tires X
Before 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 ,at ire 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 value sw ill be monitored.X

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

Wheels and tires
Tire-mounting tools should not be used near
the valve. This could damage the electronic
components.
Only have tires changed at aq ualified spe-
cialist workshop.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in the
"Changing aw heel" section ( Y
page 307).
The wear pattern sont he front and rear tires
differ, depending on the operating conditions.
Rotate the wheels before ac lear wear pattern
has formed on the tires. Fron tt ires typically
wear more on the shoulders and the rear tires in
the center.
On vehicles that have the same size front and
rear wheels, you can rotat et he wheels accord-
ing to the intervals in the tire manufacturer's
warranty book in your vehicle documents. If no
warranty book is available, the tires should be
rotated every 3,000 to 6,000 miles (5,000 to
10,00 0k m) .D ependin gont ire wear, this may
be required earlier. Do not change the direction
of wheel rotation.
Clean the contact surfaces of the wheel and the
brake disc thoroughly every time aw heel is rota-
ted. Check the tire pressure and, if necessary,
restart the tire pressure loss warning system
(Canada only) or the tire pressure monitor (USA
only).
Direction of rotation Tires with as pecified direction of rotation have
additional benefits ,e .g. if there is ar isk of hydro-
planing. These advantages can only be gained if
the tires are installed corresponding to the
direction of rotation.
An arrow on the sidewall of the tire indicates its
correc td irection of rotation.
Storing wheels Stor ew heels that are not being used in ac ool,
dry and preferably dark place. Protec tt he tires
from oil, grease, gasoline and diesel. Mounting aw heel
