halt by braking carefully. Avoid abrupt steeringmovements.
The tire pressure monitor has a yellow warninglamp in the instrument cluster for indicatingpressure loss or a malfunction. Whether thewarning lamp flashes or lights up indicateswhether a tire pressure is too low or the tirepressure monitor is malfunctioning:
Rif the warning lamp is lit continuously, the tirepressure on one or more tires is significantlytoo low. The tire pressure monitor is not mal-functioning.
Rif the warning lamp flashes for around aminute and then remains lit constantly, thetire pressure monitor is malfunctioning.
In addition to the warning lamp, a messageappears in the multifunction display. Observethe information on display messages(Ypage 213).
It may take up to ten minutes for a malfunctionof the tire pressure monitor to be indicated. Amalfunction will be indicated by the tire pres-sure warning lamp flashing for approximatelyone minute and then remaining lit. When themalfunction has been rectified, the tire pressurewarning lamp goes out after a few minutes ofdriving.
The tire pressure values indicated by the on-board computer may differ from those meas-ured at a gas station with a pressure gauge. Thetire pressures shown by the on-board computerrefer to those measured at sea level. At highaltitudes, the tire pressure values indicated by apressure gauge are higher than those shown bythe on-board computer. In this case, do notreduce the tire pressures.
The operation of the tire pressure monitor canbe affected by interference from radio transmit-ting equipment (e.g. radio headphones, two-wayradios) that may be being operated in or near thevehicle.

After a teach-in process, the tire pressure mon-itor automatically detects new wheels or newsensors. As long as a clear allocation of the tirepressure value to the individual wheels is notpossible, theTireTirePressurePressureMonitorMonitorActiveActivemessage is shown instead of the tire pressuredisplay. The tire pressures are already beingmonitored.
If an emergency spare wheel is mounted, thesystem may continue to show the tire pressureof the wheel that has been removed for a fewminutes. If this occurs, note that the value dis-played for the position where the spare wheel isfitted is not the same as the current tire pres-sure of the emergency spare wheel.

sages
If the tire pressure monitor detects a pressureloss in one or more tires, a warning message isshown in the multifunction display. The yellowtire pressure warning lamp then lights up.
RIf thePlease Correct Tire PressurePlease Correct Tire Pressuremessage appears in the multifunction display,the tire pressure in at least one tire is too low.The tire pressure must be corrected when theopportunity arises.
RIf theCheck Tire PressureCheck Tire Pressuremessageappears in the multifunction display, the tirepressure in one or more tires has droppedsignificantly. The tires must be checked.
RIf theTireTirePressurePressureWarningWarningTireTireFail‐Fail‐ureuremessage appears, the tire pressure in oneor more tires has dropped suddenly. The tiresmust be checked.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in thedisplay messages in the "Tires" section(Ypage 213).
If the wheel positions on the vehicle are rotated,the tire pressures may be displayed for thewrong positions for a short time. This is rectifiedafter a few minutes of driving, and the tire pres-sures are displayed for the correct positions.

Restarting the tire pressure monitor
When you restart the tire pressure monitor, allexisting warning messages are deleted and thewarning lamps go out. The monitor uses the cur-rently set tire pressures as the reference valuesfor monitoring. In most cases, the tire pressuremonitor will automatically detect the new refer-ence values after you have changed the tirepressure. However, you can also set referencevalues manually as described here. The tirepressure monitor then monitors the new tirepressure values.
XSet the tire pressure to the value recommen-ded for the corresponding driving situation onthe Tire and Loading Information placard onthe driver's side B-pillar (Ypage 293).
You can find more tire pressure values forvarious operating conditions in the tire pres-sure table inside the fuel filler flap(Ypage 141).
XMake sure that the tire pressure is correct onall four wheels.
XMake sure that the SmartKey is in position Hin the ignition lock (Ypage 123).

Tire-mounting tools should not be used nearthe valve. This could damage the electroniccomponents.
Only have tires changed at a qualified spe-cialist workshop.
Observe the instructions and safety notes in the"Changing a wheel" section (Ypage 310).
The wear patterns on the front and rear tiresdiffer, depending on the operating conditions.Rotate the wheels before a clear wear patternhas formed on the tires. Front tires typicallywear more on the shoulders and the rear tires inthe center.
On vehicles that have the same size front andrear wheels, you can rotate the wheels accord-ing to the intervals in the tire manufacturer'swarranty book in your vehicle documents. If nowarranty book is available, the tires should berotated every 3,000 to 6,000 miles (5,000 to10,000 km). Depending on tire wear, this maybe required earlier. Do not change the directionof wheel rotation.
Clean the contact surfaces of the wheel and thebrake disc thoroughly every time a wheel is rota-ted. Check the tire pressure and, if necessary,restart the tire pressure loss warning system(Canada only) or the tire pressure monitor (USAonly).
Direction of rotation
Tires with a specified direction of rotation haveadditional benefits, e.g. if there is a risk of hydro-planing. These advantages can only be gained ifthe tires are installed corresponding to thedirection of rotation.
An arrow on the sidewall of the tire indicates itscorrect direction of rotation.
Storing wheels
Store wheels that are not being used in a cool,dry and preferably dark place. Protect the tiresfrom oil, grease, gasoline and diesel.
