Vehicle care183tyre pressure sensor matching
process should also be performed
after replacing a spare wheel with a
road wheel containing a tyre pressure
sensor.
The malfunction light w and the
warning message or code should
extinguish 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 rear wheel 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 2 minutes to match the first wheel position, and 5 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. Use MENU on the stalk to select
the Vehicle Information
Menu ? in the Driver
Information Centre.
5. Turn the adjuster wheel to scroll to
the tyre pressure menu.
Midlevel display:
Uplevel display:
6. Press SET/CLR to begin the
sensor matching process. A
message requesting acceptance
of the process should be
displayed.
7. Press SET/CLR again to confirm
the selection. The horn sounds
twice to indicate that the receiver
is in relearn mode.
8. Start with the left side front wheel.
9. 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.

184Vehicle care10. Proceed to the right side frontwheel, and repeat the procedure
in step 9 .
11. Proceed to the right side rear wheel, and repeat the procedure
in step 9.
12. Proceed to the left side rear wheel, and repeat the procedure
in step 9. 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sensor matching process is no
longer active.
13. Turn off the ignition.
14. Set all four tyres to the recommended air pressure level
as indicated on the tyre pressure
information label.
15. Ensure the tyre loading status is set according to the selected
pressure 3 83.
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.
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, it may be necessary to reprogramme the
nominal tyre pressure and to make
other vehicle modifications.
After converting to a different tyre
size, have the label with tyre
pressures replaced.
Tyre pressure monitoring system
3 180.Caution
When converting to wheels with
14 inch diameter, the ground
clearance will be reduced. This
must be considered when passing
over obstacles.

Vehicle care1859Warning
The use of unsuitable tyres or
wheels may lead to accidents and will invalidate the vehicle
operating permit.
Wheel covers
Wheel covers and tyres that are
factory approved for the respective
vehicle and comply with all of the
relevant wheel and tyre combination
requirements must be used.
If the wheel covers and tyres used are
not factory approved, the tyres must
not have a rim protection ridge.
Wheel covers must not impair brake
cooling.
9 Warning
Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel
covers could lead to sudden
pressure loss and thereby
accidents.
Steel wheels: When using locking
wheel nuts, do not attach wheel
covers.
Tyre chains
Tyre chains are only permitted on the
front wheels.
Always use fine mesh chains that add no more than 10 mm to the tyre tread
and the inboard sides (including chain lock).
9 Warning
Damage may lead to tyre blowout.
Tyre chains are permitted on tyres of
size 175/70 R14, 185/70 R14,
185/65 R15, 205/45 R17.
Tyre chains are permitted on tyres of
size 195/55 R16 with rims of size
16 x 6 and 16 x 6.5, the latter only in combination with limited steering
angle. Seek the assistance of a
workshop.
Tyre chains are not permitted on tyres of size 215/45 R17 and 215/40 R18.
The use of tyre chains is not permitted on the temporary spare wheel.
Tyre repair kit Minor damage to the tyre tread can be
repaired with the tyre repair kit.
Do not remove foreign bodies from
the tyres.
Tyre damage exceeding 4 mm or that is at the tyre's side wall near the rim
cannot be repaired with the tyre repair kit.

186Vehicle care9Warning
Do not drive faster than 80 km/h.
Do not use for a lengthy period.
Steering and handling may be
affected.
If you have a flat tyre:
Apply the parking brake and engage
first gear, reverse gear or P.
The tyre repair kit is stowed in the load
compartment.
Depending on the equipment, the tyre repair kit is in a compartment in the
right sidewall or in a compartment
under the floor cover.
Vehicles with tyre repair kit under
the floor cover
1. Take the tyre repair kit from the compartment.
2. Remove the compressor.
3. Remove the electrical connection cable and air hose from the
stowage compartments on the
underside of the compressor.

Vehicle care1874.Screw the compressor air hose to
the connection on the sealant
bottle.
5. Fit the sealant bottle into the retainer on the compressor.
Set the compressor near the tyre
in such a way that the sealant
bottle is upright.
6. Unscrew valve cap from defective
tyre.
7. Screw the filler hose to the tyre valve.
8. The switch on the compressor must be set to J.
9. Connect the compressor plug to
the power outlet or cigarette
lighter socket.
To avoid discharging the battery,
we recommend running the
engine.
10. Set the rocker switch on the compressor to I. The tyre is filled
with sealant.
11. The compressor pressure gauge briefly indicates up to 6 bar whilstthe sealant bottle is emptying
(approx. 30 seconds). Then the
pressure starts to drop.
12. All of the sealant is pumped into the tyre. Then the tyre is inflated.
13. The prescribed tyre pressure should be obtained within 10 min.
Tyre pressure 3 214.
When the correct pressure is
obtained, switch off the
compressor.
If the prescribed tyre pressure is
not obtained within 10 min,
remove the tyre repair kit. Move
the vehicle one tyre rotation.
Reattach the tyre repair kit and
continue the filling procedure for
10 min. If the prescribed tyre
pressure is still not obtained, the
tyre is too badly damaged. Seek
the assistance of a workshop.

188Vehicle careDrain excess tyre pressure with
the button over the pressure indicator.
Depending on version the button
can be located on the air hose.
Do not run the compressor longer
than 10 min.
14. Detach the tyre repair kit. Push catch on bracket to remove
sealant bottle from bracket. Screw the tyre inflation hose to the free
connection of the sealant bottle.
This prevents sealant from
escaping. Stow tyre repair kit in
load compartment.
15. Remove any excess sealant using a cloth.
16. Take the label indicatingmaximum permitted speed from
the sealant bottle and affix in the
driver's field of view.
17. Continue driving immediately so that sealant is evenly distributedin the tyre. After driving approx.
10 km (but no more than
10 minutes), stop and check tyre
pressure. Screw compressor air
hose directly onto tyre valve and
compressor when doing this.
If tyre pressure is more than
1.3 bar , set it to the correct value.
Repeat the procedure until there
is no more loss of pressure.
If the tyre pressure has fallen
below 1.3 bar, the vehicle must
not be used. Seek the assistance
of a workshop.
18. Stow away tyre repair kit in load compartment.
