Do not use snow chains on snow-freeroads.
Only fit snow chains to specifiedtyres. See TechnicalSpecifications (page 164).

TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM
WARNINGS
The system does not relieve you ofyour responsibility to regularly checkthe tyre pressures.
The system will only provide a lowtyre pressure warning. It will notinflate the tyres.
Do not drive on significantlyunder-inflated tyres. This may causethe tyres to overheat and fail.Under-inflation reduces fuel efficiency, tyretread life and may also affect your abilityto drive your vehicle safely.
Do not bend or damage the valveswhen you are inflating the tyres.
Have tyres installed by an authoriseddealer.
The deflation detection system will alertyou if there is a change of air pressure inany tyre. It does this by using the anti-lockbraking sensors to detect the rollingcircumference of the wheels. When thecircumference changes, this indicates lowtyre pressure. A warning message isdisplayed in the information display andthe message indicator will illuminate. SeeInformation Messages (page 62).
If a low pressure warning message isdisplayed in the information display, checkthe tyre pressures as soon as possible andinflate them to the recommendedpressure. See Technical Specifications(page 164).
If this happens frequently, have the causedetermined and rectified as soon aspossible.
