characteristics), you can continue to drive
your vehicle even if there is a total loss of
pressure in one or more tires. The affected

MOExtended marking which appears on the
sidewall of the tire. You will find this marking
next to the tire size designation, the load-
bearing capacity and the speed index
(Y page 313).
MOExtended tires may only be used in
conjunction with an active tire pressure loss
warning system.
If the pressure loss warning message
appears in the multifunction display:
