Tire pressure warnings

The Tire Pressure Monitoring warns about loss in

pressure in two stages, depending on the amount

of pressure loss:
Stage 1 - Add air (3 psi to 6 psi (0.2 bar to 0.4 bar)

loss in pressure)
Stage 2 - Flat tire (from 6 psi (0.4 bar) loss in

pressure)

Stage 1 - Add air

The pressure in the tire is too low by 3 psi to 6 psi

(0.2 bar to 0.4 bar). Driving with insufficient tire

pressure reduces the road safety of the vehicle and

destroys the tire and wheel.

The tire pressure warning contains the

affected tire with the tire pressure to be

added. Correct the tire pressure at the next

opportunity.

This tire pressure warning appears with vehicle

stopped and can be deactivated. The tire pressure

warning light in the instrument panel goes out when

the tire pressure has been corrected.

Stage 2 - Flat tire

The pressure in the tire has dropped by more than

6 psi (0.4 bar). This significant pressure loss is a

danger to road safety.

When the tire pressure warning has appeared

on the on-board computer, stop immediately at

a suitable location. Check the tire for signs of

damage. If necessary, fill in tire sealant and set

the correct tire pressure.

This tire pressure warning appears when driving

and can be deactivated. The tire pressure warning

light in the instrument panel goes out when the tire

pressure has been corrected.

System learning

The Tire Pressure Monitoring begins to “learn” the

wheels after a wheel change, wheel transmitter

replacement or update of the tire settings. During
