interval display
!If the ASSYST PLUS service interval display
has been inadvertently reset, this setting can
be corrected at aqualifieds pecialist work-
shop.
Have service work carried out as describedi n
the Maintenance Booklet. This may otherwise
leadtoi ncreased weara nd damage to the

example:
Rregular city driving with frequent intermediate
stops
Rif the vehicle is primarily used to travel short
distances
Ruse in mountainou sterrain or on poor road
surfaces
Rif the engine is often left idling for long periods
Under these or similar conditions, have, for
example ,the air filter, engine oil and oil filter
replaced or changed more frequently. Under
arduous operating conditions, the tires must be
checked more often. Further information can be obtained at aqualifieds pecialist workshop, e.g.

Checking the tire pressures
Important safety notes
Observe the notes on tire pressure
(Ypage 319).
Information on air pressure for the tires on your
vehicle can be found:
Ron the vehicle's Tire and Loading Information
placard on the B-pillar
Rin the tire pressure table in the fuel filler flap
(Ypage 150)
Rin the "Tire pressure" section
Checking tire pressures manually
To determine and set the correct tire pressure,
proceed as follows:
XRemove the valve cap of the tire that is to be
checked.
XPress the tire pressure gauge securely onto
the valve.
XRead the tire pressure and compare it to the
recommended value on the Tire and Loading
Information placard or the tire pressure table (
Ypage 319).
XIf the tire pressure is too low, increase the tire
pressure to the recommended value.
XIf the tire pressure is too high, release air. To
do so, press down the metal pin in the valve,
using the tip of apen for example. Then check
the tire pressure againu sing the tire pressure
checker.
XScrew the valve cap onto the valve.
XRepeatt hese steps for the other tires.
Tire pressure loss warning system
General notes
While the vehicle is in motion, the tire pressure
loss warning system monitors the set tire pres-
sure using the rotational speed of the wheels.
This enables the system to detect significant
pressure loss in atire. If the speed of rotation of
aw heel changes as aresult of aloss of pressure,
ac orresponding warning message will appeari n
the multifunction display.
You can recognize the tire pressure loss warning
by the Run Flat Indicator Active
Press'OK' to Restartmessage which appears in
the Servicemenu of the multifunction display.
Information on the message displayc an be
found in the "Restarting the tire pressure loss
warning system" section (
Ypage 323).
Important safety notes
The tire pressure warning system does not warn you of an incorrectly set tire pressure. Observe
the notes on the recommended tire pressure
(
Ypage 319).
The tire pressure loss warning does not replace
the need to regularly check the tire pressure. An
even loss of pressure on several tires at the
322Tire pressure
Wheels and tires

same time cannot be detected by the tire pres-
sure loss warning system.
The tire pressure monitor is not able to warn you
ofas udden loss of pressure, e.g. if the tire is
penetrated by aforeign object. In the event of a
sudden loss of pressure, bring the vehicle to a
halt by braking carefully .Avoid abrupt steering
movements.
The function of the tire pressure loss warning
system is limited or delayed if:
Rsnow chains are mounted on your vehicle's
tires.
Rroad conditions are wintry.
Ryou are driving on sand or gravel.
Ryou adopt avery sporty driving style (corner-
ing at high speeds or driving with high rates of acceleration).
Ryou are driving with aheavy load (in the vehi-

Restarting the tire pressure loss warn-
ing system
Restart the tire pressure loss warning system if you have:
Rchanged the tire pressure
Rchanged the wheels or tires
Rmounted new wheels or tires
XBefore restarting, make sure that the tire
pressures are set properly on all four tires for
the respective operating conditions.
The recommended tire pressure can be found
on the Tire and Loading Information placard
on the B-pillar. Additionally, atire pressure
table is attached to the fuel filler flap. The tire
pressure loss warning system can only give
reliable warnings if you have set the correct
tire pressure. If an incorrect tire pressure is
set, these incorrect values will be monitored.
XAlso observe the notes in the section on tire
pressures (Ypage 319).

Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
shoul dbec hecked at least once every two
weeks when cold and inflated to the pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer
on the Tire and Loading Information placard
on the driver's door B-pillaro rthe tire pres-
sure label on the inside of the fuel fillerf lap. If
you rvehicle has tires of adifferent size than
the size indicated on the Tire and Loading
Information placard or, if available, the tire
pressure label, you shoul ddetermine the
proper tire pressure for those tires.
As an adde dsafety feature, you rvehicle has
been equipped with atire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) that illuminates alow tire pres-
sure telltal ewhen one or more of you rtires
are significantly underinflated. Accordingly,
when the low tire pressure telltal elights up,
you shoul dstop and check you rtires as soon
as possible, and inflate them to the proper
pressure. Driving on asignificantly underin-
flated tire cause sthe tire to overheata nd can
leadtot ire failure.
Underinflation also reduces fuel efficiency
and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's
handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not asubstitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver's responsi-
bility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if
underinflation has not reached the level to
trigger illuminatio nofthe TPMS low tire pres-
sure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. The
TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with
the low tire pressure telltale. When the sys-
tem detects amalfunction, the warning lamp
wil lflash for approximately aminute and then
remain continuously illuminated .This
sequence wil lberepeated every time the vehi-
cle is started as long as the malfunction
exists. When the malfunction indicator is illu-
minated, the system may not be abl etodetect
or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for avariety of
reasons, including the installation of incom-
patibl ereplacement or alternate tires or
wheel sonthe vehicle that prevent the TPMS
from functioning properly. Alway scheck the
TPMS malfunction telltal eafter replacing one
or more tires or wheel sonyourv ehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alternate Tires
and wheelsa llow the TPMS to continue to
function properly.
It is the driver's responsibility to set the tire
pressure to that recommended for cold tires
which is suitable for the operating situation
(
Ypage 319). Note that the correct tire pressure
for the current operating situation must first be
taught-in to the tire pressure monitor. If there is
as ubstantial loss of pressure, the warning
threshold for the warning messag eisaligned to
the reference values taught-in. Restart the tire
pressure monitor after adjusting the pressure of
the cold tires (
Ypage 325). The current pres-
sures are saved as new reference values. As a
result, awarning messag ewillappear if the tire
pressure drops significantly.
The tire pressure monitor does not warn you of
an incorrectly set tire pressure. Observe the
notes on the recommended tire pressure
(
Ypage 319).
The tire pressure monitor is not abl etowarn you
of as udden loss of pressure, e.g. if the tire is
penetrated by aforeign object. In the event of a
su

dden loss of pressure, bring the vehicle to a
halt by braking carefully. Avoid abrupt steering
movements.
