Operation

Tires and wheels

Tire inflation pressure warnings
If the system detects a significant loss of
tire inflation pressure in one or more than
one tire, a message appears in the multi-
function display.

Example illustration

The respective tire is indicated by a red
rectangle. In addition, a warning signal
sounds.

Restarting Advanced TPMS
The TPMS usually recognizes new refer-
ence values automatically, for example
when you have

ț

adjusted the tire inflation pressure

ț

changed wheels or tires

ț

mounted new wheels or tires

USA only: When the malfunction indicator is
illuminated, the system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire pressure as
intended.

USA only: Advanced TPMS malfunctions
may occur for a variety of reasons, including
the installation of replacement or alternate
tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the Advanced TPMS from functioning prop-
erly. Always check the Advanced TPMS mal-
function telltale after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure
that the replacement or alternate tires and
wheels allow the Advanced TPMS to contin-
ue to function properly.

i

Operating radio transmission equipment

(e.g. wireless headsets, two-way radios) in or
near the vehicle could cause the Advanced
TPMS to malfunction.

Warning!

G

It is the driver’s responsibility to calibrate
the TPMS on the recommended cold infla-
tion pressure. Underinflated tires affect the
ability to steer or brake the vehicle. You
might lose control over the vehicle.
