Select the Tyre pressure page under
the Vehicle Information Menu ? in
the Driver Information Centre 3 114.
Uplevel display:
Select the Tyre pressure page under
the Info Menu in the Driver
Information Centre 3 114.
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 3 254.
A detected low tyre pressure
condition is indicated by the control
indicator w 3 111.
If w illuminates, stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tyres as
recommended 3 290.
If w flashes for 60-90 seconds then
illuminates continuously, there is a
fault in the system. Consult a
workshop.
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 3 122.
If the tyre pressure must be reduced
or increased, switch off ignition.
Only mount wheels with pressure
sensors, otherwise the tyre pressure
will not be displayed and w
illuminates continuously.
A spare wheel or temporary spare
wheel is not equipped with pressure
sensors. The tyre pressure
monitoring system is not operational
for these tyres. Control indicator w
illuminates. For the further three
tyres, the system remains
operational.

three people.
● Eco for Eco pressure up to
three people.
● Max for full loading.
Tyre pressure sensor matching
process
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.The tyre pressure sensor matching
process should also be performed
after replacing a spare wheel with a
road wheel containing the tyre
pressure sensor.
The malfunction light w and the
warning message or code should go
off at the next ignition cycle. The
sensors are matched to the wheel
positions, using a relearn tool, in the
following order: left side front wheel,
right side front wheel, right side rearwheel and left side rear wheel. The
turn light at the current active position
is illuminated until sensor is matched.
Consult a workshop for service. There
are two minutes to match the first
wheel position, and five minutes
overall to match all four wheel
positions. If it takes longer, the
matching process stops and must be
restarted.
The tyre pressure sensor matching
process is:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition on.
3. On vehicles with automatic transmission: set the selector
lever to P.
On vehicles with manual
transmission: select neutral.
4. Midlevel display: Use MENU on the indicator lever
to select the Vehicle Information
Menu ? in the Driver
Information Centre.

6. Midlevel display:Press SET/CLR to begin the
sensor matching process. A
message requesting acceptance
of the process should be
displayed.
Press SET/CLR again to confirm
the selection. The horn sounds
twice to indicate that the receiver
is in relearn mode.
Uplevel display:
Press 9 to begin the sensor
matching process. The horn
sounds twice to indicate that the receiver is in relearn mode.
7. Start with the left side front wheel.
8. Place the relearn tool against the
tyre sidewall, near the valve stem.Then press the button to activate
the tyre pressure sensor. A horn
chirp confirms that the sensor
identification code has been
matched to this wheel position.
9. Proceed to the right side front wheel, and repeat the procedure
in step 8.
10. Proceed to the right side rear wheel, and repeat the procedure
in step 8.
11. Proceed to the left side rear wheel, and repeat the procedure
in step 8. The horn sounds twice
to indicate that the sensor
identification code has been
matched to the left side rear
wheel, and the tyre pressure
sensor matching process is no
longer active.
12. Turn off the ignition.13. Set all four tyres to the recommended air pressure level
as indicated on the tyre pressure
information label.
14. Ensure the tyre loading status is set according to the selected
pressure 3 114.
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.

272Vehicle care
Screw in the towing eye as far as it will
go until it stops in a horizontal
position.
Attach a tow rope – or better still a tow
rod – to the towing eye.
The towing eye must only be used for towing and not for recovering the
vehicle.
Switch on ignition to release steering
wheel lock and to permit operation of
brake lights, horn and windscreen
wiper.
Caution
Deactivate the driver assistance
systems like active emergency
braking 3 195, otherwise the
vehicle may automatically brake during towing.
Switch the selector lever to neutral.
Release the parking brake.
Caution
Drive slowly. Do not drive jerkily.
Excessive tractive force can
damage the vehicle.
When the engine is not running,
considerably more force is needed to
brake and steer.
To prevent the entry of exhaust gases from the towing vehicle, switch on the
air recirculation and close the
windows.
Vehicles with automatic transmission: The vehicle must be towed facing
forwards, not faster than 80 km/h nor further than 100 km. In all other cases
and when the transmission is
defective, the front axle must be
raised off the ground.
Seek the assistance of a workshop.
After towing, unscrew the towing eye.
Insert cap at the top and engage
downwards.
Towing another vehicle
Insert the screwdriver in the slot at the edge of the cap. Release the cap by
levering it out carefully.
The towing eye is stowed with the
vehicle tools 3 252.
