Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine GENERAL INFORMATION
A decal with tire pressure data is locatedin the driver’s door opening.
Check and set the tire pressure at theambient temperature in which you areintending to drive your vehicle and whenthe tires are cold.
Note:Check your tire pressures regularly tooptimize fuel economy.
Note:Use only approved wheel and tiresizes. Using other sizes could damage yourvehicle and will make the National TypeApproval invalid.

The kit is located in the spare wheel well.
General Information
WARNINGS
Depending on the type and extent oftire damage, some tires can only bepartially sealed or not sealed at all.Loss of tire pressure can affect vehiclehandling, leading to loss of vehicle control.
Do not use the kit on a previouslydamaged tire, for example when ithas been driven under inflated.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM
WARNINGS
The system does not relieve you ofyour responsibility to regularly checkthe tire pressures.
The system will only provide a lowtire pressure warning. It will notinflate the tires.
WARNINGS
Do not drive on significantlyunder-inflated tires. This may causethe tires to overheat and fail.Under-inflation reduces fuel efficiency, tiretread life and may also affect your abilityto drive your vehicle safely.
Do not bend or damage the valveswhen you are inflating the tires.
Have tires installed by an authorizeddealer.
The deflation detection system will alertyou if there is a change of air pressure inany tire. It does this by using the anti-lockbraking sensors to detect the rollingcircumference of the wheels. When thecircumference changes, this indicates lowtire pressure. A warning message isdisplayed in the information display andthe message indicator will illuminate. SeeInformation Messages (page 67).
If a low pressure warning message isdisplayed in the information display, checkthe tire pressures as soon as possible andinflate them to the recommendedpressure. See Technical Specifications(page 183).
If this happens frequently, have the causedetermined and rectified as soon aspossible.
Apart from a too low tire pressure or adamaged tire, the following situations canaffect the rolling circumference:
•Vehicle load is uneven.
•When using a trailer or traveling up anddown an incline.
•Using snow chains.
•Driving on soft surfaces such as snowor mud.
Note:The system will still functioncorrectly, but there may be an increaseddetection time.
