pressure
R
after you have replaced the wheels or tires
R
after you have installed new wheels or tires
X
Using the Tire and Loading Information
placard on the driver’s door B-pillar or, if
available, the tire inflation pressure label on
the inside of the fuel filler flap, make sure
the tire inflation pressure of all four tires is
correct.
G
Warning!
The Run Flat Indicator can only warn you in
a reliable manner if you have set the correct
tire inflation pressures for each tire.
If an incorrect tire inflation pressure was
set, the system will monitor the pressure
according to the incorrect value.
X
Switch on the ignition.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS), (USA only)
Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS). It measures the
tire inflation pressure in the vehicle’s tires
and issues warnings in case of pressure loss.
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
is equipped with a combination low tire
pressure/TPMS malfunction telltale in the
instrument cluster. Depending on how the
telltale illuminates, it indicates a low tire
pressure condition or a malfunction in the
TPMS system itself:
R
If the telltale illuminates continuously, one
or more of your tires are significantly
underinflated. There is no malfunction in
the TPMS.
R
If the telltale flashes for 60 seconds and
then stays illuminated, the TPMS system
itself is not operating properly.
The TPMS only functions on wheels that are
equipped with the proper electronic sensors.
It monitors the tire inflation pressure, as
selected by the driver, in all four tires. A
warning is issued to alert you to a decrease
in pressure in one or more of the tires.
G
Warning!
The TPMS does not indicate a warning for
wrongly selected inflation pressures.
Always adjust tire inflation pressure
according to the Tire and Loading
Information placard or, if available, on the
supplemental tire inflation pressure
