'OK' to Restart message in the multifunction
displa yint he Serv. menu. Information on the
message displa yc an be found in the "Restarting
the tire pressure loss warning" section
( Y
page 294).
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
( Y
page 290).
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
same time cannot be detected by the tire pres-
sure loss warning system.
The tire pressure monitor is not able to warn you
of as udden loss of pressure, e.g. if the tire is
penetrated by af oreign object. In the event of a
sudden loss of pressure, bring the vehicle to a
halt by braking carefully .A void abrupt steering
movements.
The function of the tire pressure loss warning
system is limited or delayed if: R
snow chains are mounted on your vehicle's
tires. R
road conditions are wintry. R
you are driving on sand or gravel. R
you adopt av ery sporty driving style (corner-
ing at high speeds or driving with high rates of
acceleration). R
you are driving with ah eavy load (in the vehi-
cle or on the roof)
Restarting the tire pressure loss warn-
ing system Restart the tire pressure loss warning system if
you have: R
changed the tire pressure R
changed the wheels or tires R
mounted new wheels or tires X
Before 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 ,at ire 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 value sw ill be monitored.X
Also observe the notes in the section on tire
pressures ( Y

Tire pressure monitor (Canada only)
General notes If at ire pressure monitor is installed, the vehi-
cle's wheels have sensors that monitor the tire
pressures in all four tires. The tire pressure mon-
itor warns you if the pressure drops in one or
more of the tires. The tire pressure monitor only
functions if the corresponding sensors are
installed in all wheels.
Information on tire pressures is displayed in the
multifunction display. After af ew minutes of
driving, the current tire pressure of each tire is294

Wheels and tires

The tire pressure monitor has ay ellow warning
lamp in the instrument cluster for indicating
pressure loss or am alfunction. Whether the
warning lamp flashes or lights up indicates
whether at ire pressure is too low or the tire
pressure monitor is malfunctioning: R
if the warning lamp is lit continuously, the tire
pressure on one or more tires is significantly
too low. The tire pressure monitor is not mal-
functioning. R
if the warning lamp flashes for around a
minute and then remains lit constantly, the
tire pressure monitor is malfunctioning.
In addition to the warning lamp, am essage
appears in the multifunction display .O bserve
the information on display messages
( Y
page 211).
It may take up to ten minutes for am alfunction
of the tire pressure monitor to be indicated. A
malfunction will be indicated by the tire pres-
sure warning lamp flashing for approximately
one minute and then remaining lit. When the
malfunction has been rectified, the tire pressure
warning lamp goes out after af ew minutes of
driving.
The tire pressure values indicated by the on-
board computer may differ from those meas-
ured at ag as station with ap ressure gauge. The
tire pressures shown by the on-board computer
refer to those measured at sea level. At high
altitudes, the tire pressure values indicated by a
pressure gauge are higher than those shown by
the on-board computer. In this case, do not
reduce the tire pressures.
The operation of the tire pressure monitor can
be affected by interferenc ef rom radio transmit-
ting equipment (e.g. radio headphones, two-way
radios) that may be being operated in or near the
vehicle.
Checking the tire pressur ee lectroni-
cally X

The current tire pressure of each tire is shown
in the multifunction display. If the vehicle was parked for longer than
20 minutes, the Tire pressure will be

After at each-in process, the tire pressure mon-
itor automatically detect sn ew wheels or new
sensors. As long as ac lear allocation of the tire
pressure value to the individual wheels is not
possible, the Tire Pressure Monitor Active
message is shown instead of the tire pressure
display .T he tire pressures are already being
monitored.
If an emergenc ys pare wheel is mounted, the
system may continue to show the tire pressure
of the wheel that has been removed for af ew
minutes. If this occurs, not et hat the value dis-
played for the position where the spare wheel is
mounted is not the same as the current tire
pressure of the emergenc ys pare wheel.

loss in one or more tires, aw arning message is
shown in the multifunction display .T he yellow
tire pressure warning lamp then lights up. R
If the Please Correct Tire Pressure
message appears in the multifunction display,
the tire pressure in at least one tire is too low.
The tire pressure must be corrected when the
opportunit ya rises. R
If the Check Tire Pressure message
appears in the multifunction display ,t he tire
pressure in one or more tires has dropped
significantly. The tires must be checked. R
If the Tire Pressure Warning Tire Fail‐
ure message appears, the tire pressure in one
or more tires has dropped suddenly. The tires
must be checked.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in the
display messages in the "Tires" section
( Y
page 211).
If the wheel positions on the vehicle are rotated,
the tire pressures may be displayed for the
wrong positions for as hort time. This is rectified
after af ew minutes of driving, and the tire pres-

Tire-mounting tools should not be used near
the valve. This could damage the electronic
components.
Only have tires changed at aq ualified spe-
cialist workshop.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in the
"Changing aw heel" section ( Y
page 307).
The wear pattern sont he front and rear tires
differ, depending on the operating conditions.
Rotate the wheels before ac lear wear pattern
has formed on the tires. Fron tt ires typically
wear more on the shoulders and the rear tires in
the center.
On vehicles that have the same size front and
rear wheels, you can rotat et he wheels accord-
ing to the intervals in the tire manufacturer's
warranty book in your vehicle documents. If no
warranty book is available, the tires should be
rotated every 3,000 to 6,000 miles (5,000 to
10,00 0k m) .D ependin gont ire wear, this may
be required earlier. Do not change the direction
of wheel rotation.
Clean the contact surfaces of the wheel and the
brake disc thoroughly every time aw heel is rota-
ted. Check the tire pressure and, if necessary,
restart the tire pressure loss warning system
(Canada only) or the tire pressure monitor (USA
only).
Direction of rotation Tires with as pecified direction of rotation have
additional benefits ,e .g. if there is ar isk of hydro-
planing. These advantages can only be gained if
the tires are installed corresponding to the
direction of rotation.
An arrow on the sidewall of the tire indicates its
correc td irection of rotation.
