ADJUSTING TPMS TARGET

Rear target pressure
If you are using your vehicle in a heavily laden condi-
tion, the tyre pressures should be inflated to the
‘Laden Pressure’ shown on the tyre placard.
The TPMS system can be adjusted in the vehicle
information display to set the target pressure to the
‘Laden ‘Pressure’ shown on the tyre placard. See
“Settings” in the “2. Instruments and controls” sec-
tion. To adjust the target pressure use the steering
wheel switches to select the [Settings] menu, fol-
lowed by [Tyre Pressures]. Select [Target front] and
[Target rear] and set the desired tyre pressure.
The TPMS target pressures will be displayed in the
centre of the front and rear axle on the TPMS screen
of the vehicle information display.
TYRE PRESSURE UNITS
The units displayed by the TPMS system can be
selected using the vehicle information display. Se-
lect the [Settings] menu, followed by [Tyre Pres-
sures]. Select [Tyre pressure unit] and choose the
unit that you want.
[CHECK COLD TYRE] MESSAGE
If the tyre pressure becomes higher than the target
pressure during a low tyre pressure condition, the
[Check Cold Tyre] message will be displayed in the
vehicle information display (see “Settings” in the
“2. Instruments and controls” section).
NOTE
Even if the pressure is above the preset target
pressure, the yellow colour in the tyre pressure
warning means that the tyre pressure is actually
too low. Tyre pressure is increasing during driv-
ing. Check the tyre pressure when the tyre is
cold.
TPMS TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION
The tyre pressure is affected by the temperature of
the tyre; the tyre temperature increases when the
car is driven. To be able to accurately monitor the
tyre air leakage and to prevent false TPMS warnings
due to reductions in temperature, the TPMS system
uses temperature sensors in the tyres to perform
temperature compensation calculations.
On rare occasions it may be necessary to recalibrate
the TPMS system reference temperature using the
vehicle information display. See “Settings” in the
“2. Instruments and controls” section. This opera-
tion should only be performed when the actual tyre
pressure has been adjusted, whilst the current am-
bient temperature is significantly different to the cur-
rent calibration temperature.
To initiate TPMS temperature calibration use the
steering wheel switches to select the [Settings]
menu, followed by [Tyre Pressures]. Select [Cali-
brate] followed by [Start]. While the calibration pro-
cess is active, the message: [Resetting tyre pres-
sure system] will be displayed in the vehicle informa-
tion display.
