Tyre pressure monitoring
Introduction
The tyre pressure monitoring function (hereinafter referred to as the system)
monitors the tyre pressure while driving.
If the tyre inflation pressure changes, the warning light lights up in the in-
strument cluster and an audible signal is heard » page 41.
The system can only function properly if the tyres have the prescribed inflation
pressure and this pressure values are stored in the system.
The tyre pressure values are always stored in the system, if one of the fol-
lowing events occurs.
▶
Change of tyre inflation pressure.
▶
Change one or more wheels.
▶
Change in position of a wheel on the vehicle.
▶
The warning light
in the instrument cluster.
WARNING
■
The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must be
observed » page 169, in section Introduction.
■
Having the correct tyre inflation pressure is always the driver's responsi-
bility. Tyre pressure should be checked regularly » page 206.
■
The system cannot warn in case of very rapid tyre inflation pressure loss,
e.g. in case of sudden tyre damage.
■
Before storing the pressures, the tyres must be inflated to the specified
inflation pressure » page 206. When storing incorrect pressure values, the
system could possibly not issue any warnings, even with a too low tyre
pressure.
CAUTION
To ensure proper system function, the tyre pressure values must be stored ev-
ery 10,000 km or 1x a year.
