Vehicle care233Tyre pressure monitoringsystem
The tyre pressure monitoring system checks the pressure of all four tyres
once a minute when vehicle speed
exceeds a certain limit.Caution
Tyre pressure monitoring system
warns only about low tyre pressure condition and does not replace
regular tyre maintenance by the
driver.
All wheels must be equipped with pressure sensors and the tyres must
have the prescribed pressure.
Note
In countries where the tyre pressure
monitoring system is legally
required, the use of wheels without
pressure sensors will invalidate the
vehicle operating permit.
The current tyre pressures can be
shown in the Driver Information
Centre.
To access the tyre pressure page,
choose vehicle info menu via right
steering wheel buttons and press
{ or } to select tyre pressure.
To reset the system: ● Press and hold 9 until the tyre
pressure monitoring system asks
for a check.
● Press 9 again to confirm. The
vehicle honks twice.
System status and pressure warnings
are displayed by a message
indicating the corresponding tyre in
the Driver Information Centre.
The system considers the tyre
temperature for the warnings.
Temperature dependency 3 231.
A detected low tyre pressure
condition is indicated by the control
indicator w 3 80.
If w illuminates, stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tyres as
recommended 3 251.
After inflating, some driving may be
required to update the tyre pressure
values in the Driver Information
Centre. During this time w may
illuminate.
If w illuminates at lower temperatures
and extinguishes after driving, this
could be an indicator for approaching a low tyre pressure condition. Check
tyre pressure.
Vehicle messages 3 89.
If the tyre pressure must be reduced or increased, switch off vehicle.

234Vehicle careWinter tyres or additional wheel sets
must be fitted with sensors, otherwise the system will not work and control
indicator w illuminates continuously.
The tyre pressure monitoring system
malfunction indicator is combined
with the low tyre pressure control
indicator. If the system detects a
malfunction, w will flash for approx.
one minute and then remain
continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long
as the malfunction exists.
If the malfunction indicator w is
illuminated, the system may not be
able to detect or signal low tyre
pressure as intended. Tyre pressure
monitoring system malfunctions may
occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of
replacement or alternate tyres or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the tyre pressure monitoring system fromfunctioning properly. Always check
the tyre pressure monitoring system
malfunction control indicator w after
replacing one or more tyres or wheels
on your vehicle to ensure that thereplacement or alternative tyres and
wheels allow the tyre pressure
monitoring system to continue to
function properly.
A temporary spare wheel is not
equipped with a pressure sensor. The
tyre pressure monitoring system is
not operational for these wheels.
Control indicator w illuminates. For
the further three wheels the system
remains operational.
A full size spare wheel is equipped
with a pressure sensor. The system
will detect the new wheel
automatically during driving.
The use of commercially-available
liquid tyre repair kits can impair the
function of the system. Factory-
approved repair kits can be used.
Operating electronic devices or being
close to facilities using similar wave
frequencies could disrupt the tyre
pressure monitoring system.
Each time the tyres are replaced, tyre pressure monitoring system sensors
must be dismounted and serviced.
For the screwed sensor, replacevalve core and sealing ring. For the
clipped sensor, replace complete
valve stem.
Vehicle loading status
Adjust tyre pressure to load condition according to the tyre information label
or tyre pressure chart 3 251, and
select the appropriate setting in the menu Tyre load in the Options menu
in the Driver Information Centre 3 82.
This setting is the reference for the
tyre pressure warnings.

Vehicle care235The available settings are:● Light for comfort pressure up to
three people.
● Eco for Eco pressure up to three
people.
● Max for full loading.
Auto learn function Each tyre pressure sensor has a
unique identification code. The
identification code must be matched
to a new wheel position after rotating
the wheels or exchanging the
complete wheel set and if one or more tyre pressure sensors were replaced.
After changing wheels, the vehicle
must be stationary for approx.
20 minutes before the system
recalculates. The following relearn
process takes up to 10 minutes of
driving with a minimum speed of
20 km/h. In this event, w can be
displayed or pressure values can
swap in the Driver Information Centre.
If problems occur during the relearn
process, a warning message will be
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.Tread depth
Check tread depth at regular
intervals.
Tyres should be replaced for safety
reasons at a tread depth of 2-3 mm
(4 mm for winter tyres).
For safety reasons it is recommended
that the tread depth of the tyres on
one axle should not vary by more than 2 mm.
The legally permissible minimum
tread depth (1.6 mm) has been
reached when the tread has worn
down as far as one of the tread wear
indicators (TWI). Their position is
indicated by markings on the
sidewall.
If there is more wear at the front than
the rear, swap round front wheels and rear wheels periodically. Ensure that
the direction of rotation of the wheels
remains the same.
Tyres age, even if they are not used.
We recommend tyre replacement
every six years.
Changing tyre and wheel size
If tyres of a different size than those
fitted at the factory are used, vehicle
performance, including braking, ride
and handling characteristics, stability
and resistance to rollover may be
affected. If the vehicle has electronic
systems such as antilock brakes,
rollover airbags, traction control,
electronic stability control, the
performance of these systems can
also be affected. It may be necessary
to reprogramme the speedometer as
well as the nominal tyre pressure and
make other vehicle modifications.
