Information on tyr epressure sisshown in the
multifunction display. Afte rafew minute sof

Important safety notes It is th
edriver' sresponsibility to set th etyre
pressure to th erecommended col dtyrep res-
sure suitable for th eoperatin gsituation
(Y page 356). Not ethatthe correc ttyrep res-
sure for th ecurren toperatin gsituatio nmust
first be taught-in to th etyrep ressure monitor. If
there is asubstantial loss of pressure ,the warn-
ing threshold for th ewarning message is aligned to th
ereferenc evalues taught-in .Restart the
tyr ep ressure monito rafter adjusting to th ecold
tyr ep ressure (Y page 360). The curren tpres-
sure sare save dasnew reference values. This
will ensure that awarning message will only
appear if th etyrep ressure drops significantly.
The tyr epressure monito rdoes no twarn you of
an incorrectly set tyr epressure .Observ ethe
note sont herecommended tyr epressure
(Y page 356).
The tyr epressure monito risnotable to warn
you of asudde nloss of pressure ,e.g.ift hetyre

as udde nloss of pressure ,brin gthe vehicle to a
halt by braking carefully. Avoid abrupt steering
manoeuvres.

The tyr epressure values indicated by th eon-
boar dcomputer may differ from those meas-
ured at afilling statio nusingap ressure gauge.
The tyr epressure sshown by th eon-board com-
puter refer to those measured at sea level. At
high altitudes, th etyrep ressure values indica-
te dbyap ressure gauge are higher than those
shown by th eon-board computer. In this case,

The operatio nofthetyrep ressure monito rcan
be affected by interferenc efromr adio transmit-

The multifunction display shows the current
tyre pressure of each wheel.
If the vehicl ewas parked for longer than
20 minutes ,the following message appears:
Tyre pressure swill be displayed
Tyre pressure swill be displayed
after afew minutes of driving
after afew minutes of driving.
After ateach-in period, the tyre pressure moni-
tor automatically detects new wheels or new
sensors. As long as acleara llocation of the tyre
pressure values to the individualw heels is not
possible, the Tyre Tyrepressure
pressure monitor

active
message is shown instead of the tyre pressure
display.T he tyre pressures are already being
monitored.
If an emergency spare whee lisfitted, for afew
minutes the system may continue to show the
tyre pressure of the whee lthat has been
removed .Ifthis occurs, note that the valu edis-
played for the position where the spare whee lis
fitted is not the same as the current tyre pres-
sure of the emergency spare wheel.
Warning message softhe tyre pressure
monitor If the tyre pressure monitor detects
apressure
loss in one or more tyres, awarning message is
shown in the multifunction display.T he yellow
tyre pressure warning lamp then lights up.
R If the Please correct tyre pressure
Please correct tyre pressure
message appears in the multifunction display,
the tyre pressure in at least one tyre is too
low.T he tyre pressure must be corrected
when the opportunity arises.
R If the Check Check tyre(s)
tyre(s) message appears in the
multifunction display,t he tyre pressure in at least one tyre has dropped significantly. The
tyres must be checked.
R If the Warning tyre defect Warning tyre defect message
appears in the multifunction display,t he tyre
pressure in at least one tyre has dropped sud- denly .The tyres must be checked.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in the display messages in the "Tyres" section
(Y page2 77).
If the whee lpositions on the vehicl eare inter-
changed ,the tyre pressures may be displayed
for the wrong positions for ashort time. After a
few minutes of driving, this is rectified and the
tyre pressures are displayed for the correct
positions.
Restarting the tyre pressure monitor When you restart the tyre pressure monitor, all
existing warning messages are deleted and the
warning lamp sgoout. The monitor uses the cur-
rently set tyre pressures as the reference values
for monitoring. In most cases, the tyre pressure monitor willa utomatically detect the new refer-
ence values after you have changed the tyre
pressure. However, you can alsos et reference
values manually as described here. The tyre
pressure monitor then monitors the new tyre
pressure values.
X Use the table on the insid eofthe fuel filler flap
to ensure that the tyre pressure is set cor-
rectly in all four tyres for the current operating
conditions.
Also observe the notes in the section on tyre
pressures (Y page356).
X Make sure that the key is in position 2in the
ignitio nlock (Y page145).
