-The driver is responsible for maintaining the
correct tire pressure. You must check the
tire pressure regularly.
- Under certain conditions (such as a sporty
driving style, winter conditions or unpaved
roads), the tire pressure monitoring system
indicator may be delayed .
- Do not use run-flat tires on your vehicle. Us­
ing them when not permitted can lead to
vehicle damage or accidents .
(D Tips
- The tire pressure monitoring system can al­
so stop working when there is an ESC mal­
function .
- Using snow chains may result in a system
malfunction.
- The tires with the identification
"AO" or
"RO" ¢ page 290 have been matched with
your Audi tire pressure monitoring system.
Using these tires is recommended.
Storing tire pressures
Applies to: AB, S8
If the tire pressure changes or a tire is replaced,
it must be confirmed in the Infotainment sys­
tem .
.,. Make sure before storing that the tire pressures
of all four tir es meet the specified values and
are adapted to the
load ¢ page 291 .
.,. Switch the ignition on .
.,. Select : the ICARI function button > Car Systems
control button > Service & control > Tire pres­
sure monitor> Store tire pressure > Yes, store
now.
(D Tips
Do not store the tire pressures if snow chains
are installed. Otherwise the system could
malfunction.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (SB plus)
ill General notes
Applies to: S8 plus
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
shou ld be checked monthly when cold and inflat­
ed to the inflation pressure recommended by the
vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or
tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has
tires of a different size than the size ind icated on
the veh icle placard or tire inflat ion pressure la­
bel, you should determine the proper tire infla­
tion pressure for those tires).
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been
equipped with a tire pressure mon itor ing system
(TPMS) t hat illuminates a low tire pressure tell­
ta le when o ne or more of your tires is significant­
l y under-inflated. According ly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure . Driving on a signifi ­
cant ly under-inflated tire causes the tire to over­
heat and can lead to tire failure . Under-inflation
also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle's handling and stop ­
ping ability .
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's re­
spons ibility to maintain correct t ire pressure,
even if under-inflation has not reached the level
to trigge r illumination of the TPM S low t ire pres­
su re te lltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to ind icate when the sys­
tem is not operating prope rly . The TPM S mal­
function indicator is combined with the low t ire
pressure telltale. When the system detects a
malfunction, the telltale will flash for approxi­
mately one minute and then remain continuously
illuminated. This sequence wi ll continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the mal­
function exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated,
the system may not be able to detect or signal
low tire pressure as intended. TPMS
