BMW 760Li Sedan 2010 - Manual (Page 96)

4. Start the engine - do not drive away.
5. Start the initialization with "Reset".
6. Drive away.
The initialization is completed while driving,
which can be interrupted at any time.
The initialization automatically continues when
driving resumes.
Indication of a flat tire
The yellow warning lamp and the vehicle
symbol light up. A message appears on
the Control Display. In addition, a signal
sounds.
There is a flat tire or a major loss in tire inflation
pressure.
1. Carefully reduce your speed to a maximum
of 50 mph/80 km/h.
Avoid sudden braking and steering maneu‐
vers. Do not increase the speed again.
Do not continue driving without run-
flat tires
Do not continue driving if the vehicle is not
equipped with run-flat tires; continued driv‐
ing may result in serious accidents.◀
2. Check the air pressure in all four tires at the
next opportunity.
If the tire inflation pressure in all tires is cor‐
rect, the Flat Tire Monitor may not have been
initialized. In this case, initialize the system.
Continued driving with a flat tire
Possible driving distance with complete loss of
tire inflation pressure:
▷ With a light load: 1 to 2 people without lug‐
gage: Approx. 155 miles/250 km.
▷ With a medium load: 2 people, trunk full, or
4 people without luggage: Approx. 94 miles/
150 km.
▷ With a full load: 4 people, trunk full: Approx.
30 miles/50 km.
Continued driving with a flat tire
Drive moderately and do not exceed a
speed of 50 mph/80 km/h.
A loss of tire inflation pressure results in a
change in the handling characteristics, e.g., re‐
duced lane stability during braking, a longer
braking distance and altered self-steering prop‐
erties.◀
Final failure of tire
Vibrations or loud noises while driving can
indicate the final failure of the tire. Reduce speed
and stop; otherwise, pieces of the tire could
come loose and cause an accident. Do not con‐
tinue driving and contact your authorized deal‐
ership.◀
Status display
The current status of the Flat Tire Monitor can
be displayed on the Control Display, e.g.,
whether or not the FTM is active.
1. "Vehicle Info"
2. "Vehicle status"
3. "Flat Tire Monitor"
The status is displayed.
Lane departure warning*
The concept
This system issues a warning at speeds above
approx. 40 mph/65 km/h if the vehicle is about
to leave the lane on roads with lane lines.
The steering wheel begins vibrating gently.
The system does not provide a warning if the
turn signal is set before leaving the lane.
