Tire Pressure Control (RDC)
*
This system regularly checks tire pres-
sure and monitors all four tires even
while driving, so you don't have to.
Behind the valve stem in every wheel,
there is an electronic chip that is de-
signed for severe-duty applications
and long service life. It contains a
pressure sensor, a transmitter and a
battery. The pressure is measured in
extremely short time intervals and then
transmitted by a radio signal. If an
irregularity is detected, the transmis-
sion rate is increased. 46cde078
There is an antenna located right near
every wheel in the vehicle body. Each
antenna picks up signals from its re-
spective wheel. A central electronics
system evaluates all four signals and
forwards any changes. The RDC pro-
vides an important contribution to
driving safety.
