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.
