MOExtended system*

The MOExtended system allows you to
continue driving your vehicle even if there
is a total loss of pressure in one or more
tires.

You may only use the MOExtended system
with the Tire Pressure Monitoring System*
(TPMS*) (

For information on driving in case of pres-
sure loss in one or more tires (emergency
mode), see the “Practical hints” section
(

page 451).
