Message Possible causes/consequences and solutions
[Please Correct Tire
Pressure]The tire pressure is too low in at least one of the tires, or the tire pressure difference between the wheels is too great.
1. Check the tire pressures at the next opportunity (see "Wheels and tires")
2. If necessary, correct the tire pressure.
3. Restart the tire pressure monitoring system (see "Restarting TPMS")
[Check Tire(s)] The tire pressure in one or more tires has dropped significantly The wheel position is displayed in the vehicle information display
A warning tone also sounds.
WARNING
Underinflated tires pose the following risks:•The tires may burst, especially as the load and vehicle speed increase.•The tires may wear excessively and/or unevenly, which may greatly impair tire traction.•The driving characteristics, as well as steering and braking, may be greatly impaired.
There is a risk of an accident.
1. Stop the vehicle without making any sudden steering or braking maneuvers. Pay attention to the traffic conditions as you do so.
2. Secure the vehicle against rolling away.
3. Check the tires and, if necessary, follow the instructions for a flat tire (see "Flat tire").
4. Check the tire pressures and, if necessary, correct the tire pressure.

cident. Warm the windshield with the
defroster before you wash the windshield.
CAUTION
•Do not operate the washer continuously
for more than 30 seconds.
•Do not operate the washer if the win-
dow washer fluid reservoir is empty.
•Do not fill the window washer reservoir
tank with washer fluid concentrates at
full strength. Some methyl alcohol
based washer fluid concentrates may
permanently stain the grille if spilled
while filling the window washer reser-
voir tank.
•Pre-mix washer fluid concentrates with
water to the manufacturer’s recom-
mended levels before pouring the fluid
into the window washer reservoir tank.

•Do not operate the windshield wipers
when the windshield is dry, as this could
damage the wiper blades. Moreover, dust
that has collected on the windshield can
scratch the glass if wiping takes place

•If it is necessary to switch on the wipers in
dry weather conditions, always operate
them using washer fluid.
•If the windshield wipers leave smears on
the windshield after the vehicle has been
washed in an automatic car wash, this
may be due to wax or other residue. Clean
the windshield with washer fluid after an
automatic car wash.
