Maintenance and care

Vehicles with tire pressure monitoring sys‐
te m: MOExtended tires may only be used in con‐
junction wi than activated tire pressure monitor‐
ing sy stem.
If a pressure loss warning message appears in
th e multifunction display:
RCheck the tire for dama ge.
RIf driving on, obser vethefo llowing no tes.
Driving distance possible in limp-home mode
af te r the pressure loss warning:
Load condition Driving distance pos‐
sible in limp-homemode
Pa rtially laden 50 miles (80 km)
Fu lly laden 19miles (30 km)
RThe driving dis tance possible in li mp-home
mode may vary depending on the driving
st yle.
RMaximum permissible speed 50 mph
(80 km/h). If a tire has gone
flat and cannot be replaced
with an MOEx tended tire, you can use a stand‐
ard tire as a temp orary measure.
Using the TIREFIT kit
Ha ve thefo llowing readily available:
RTire sealant bottle
REnclosed TIREFIT sticke r
RTire inflation compressor
Yo u can use TIREFIT tire sealant toseal punctu‐
re s of up to0.16 in (4 mm), particular lythose in
th e tire conta ct surface.You can use TIREFIT in
outside temp eratures down to-4 °F (-20 °C).

WARNING Risk of accident when using
tire sealant.
In thefo llowing situations, the tire sealant is
unable toprov ide suf ficient breakdown assis‐
ta nce, as it is unable toseal the tire proper ly:
RThere are cuts or punctures in the tire

Breakdown assis tance

The system checks the tire pressure and the tire
te mp erature of the tires ins talled on theve hicle
by means of a tire pressure sensor.
New tire pressure sensors, e.g. in winter tires,
are automatically taught-in thefirs t time they are
driven.
The tire pressure and the tire temp erature
appear in the multifunction display
(
→page 218).
If th ere is a subs tantial pressure loss or if the
tire temp erature is excessive, a warning will be
given:
RVi a display messages (→page 435).
RViath eh warning lamp in the instrument
clus ter (→page 466).
It is the driver's responsibility toset the tire
pressure tothere commended cold tire pressure
suitable forth e operating situation. Set the tire
pressure for cold tires using a tire pressure
ga uge. Notethat the cor rect tire pressure forth e
cur rent operating situation must firs t be taught-
in to the tire pressure monitoring sy stem. In most cases,
the tire pressure monitoring sys‐
te m will auto matically update the new refere nce
va lues af teryo u ha vechanged the tire pressure.
Yo u can, ho wever,also update there fere nce val‐
ues byrestarting the tir e pressure mon

Sy stem limitations
The tire pressure monitoring sy stem does not
issue a warning:
RIfth e tire pressure is set incor rectly.
RIfth ere is a sudden pressure loss caused, for
