General notes

If a tire pressure monitor is installed, the

vehicle's wheels have sensors that monitor

the tire pressures in all four tires. The tire

pressure monitor warns you if the pressure

drops in one or more of the tires. The tire

pressure monitor only functions if the correct

sensors are installed on all wheels.
Information on tire pressures is displayed in

the multifunction display. After a few minutes

of driving, the current tire pressure of each

tire is shown in the

Service

Service

menu of the

multifunction display.
