u. co ..... N
" N ..... 0 0 :c ' also blinks for approximately one minutes each
time the ignition is switched on . The tire pressure
monitoring system cannot be selected in the In­
fotainment system. The following are examples
of situations that could cause a malfunction:
- If the message appears at the end of the adap­
tation phase, the system cannot detect the
wheels installed on the vehicle . This may result
from one or more wheels being installed with­ out wheel sensors or with incompatible wheel
sensors .
- A wheel sensor or another component has
failed .
- Using snow chains can affect the function of
the system because of the shielding effect of
the chains .
- The tire pressure monitoring system is not
available due to a malfunction .
- Transmitters with the same frequency, such as
headphones or remote-controlled devices, may
cause a temporary system malfunction due to
the strong e lectromagnetic field .
The
@m indicator light turns off once the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System is available again . If
you cannot correct the malfunction and the
mm
indicator light stays on, drive immediately to an
author ized Audi dealer or author ized Audi Service
F acility to have the malfunction repaired.
