When you take delivery of the vehicle, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System is calibrated for the
factory-recommended cold tire inflation pressure for the tires on your vehicle, as shown on the la‐
bel inside the driver door ⇒Tire inflation pressure .
The system must be recalibrated through the Infotainment system whenever you remove and re‐
mount or change any wheel or tire on the vehicle, even if the reinstalled or replacement wheels
and tires are identical to those that were removed and even if the tire pressure does not change
⇒Recalibrating the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) .
If you have to adjust the tire pressure on a warm tire, fill the tire with 2.0- 4.35psi (20- 30kPa)
more than the pressure specified on the tire pressure label inside the driver door ⇒Tire inflation
pressure .
At the next opportunity, check and adjust the tire pressure on all 4 tires when they are cold. Cold
tires are tires that have not been driven more than a couple of miles (kilometers) at low speed
within the last 3 hours. Then be sure to recalibrate the TPMS.
If the TPMS determines that the air pressure in at least one tire is too low, carefully check the
pressure in all 4tires with an accurate tire pressure gauge. Low tire pressure usually cannot be
determined by looking at the tire. This is especially true of low-profile tires.
If you have work done on your wheels or tires, inform the workshop that the vehicle is equipped
with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).
New tires may expand slightly the first time they are driven at high speeds, which can trigger a
tire pressure warning. Remember that tire pressure can only be properly measured when the tire
is cold ⇒Tire inflation pressure .
Only replace old tires with tires that have been approved by Volkswagen for your vehicle type.
