WARNING
If you manipulate, bridge or replace afaulty
fuse with afuse of ahigher amperage, the
electric cables could be overloaded. This may result in afire. There is arisk of an accident
and injury.
Always replace faulty fuses with specified new fuses of the correct amperage.
! Only use fuses that have been approved
for Mercedes-Benz vehicles and which
have the correct fuse ratin gfor the system
concerned. Otherwise, components or sys-
tem scould be damaged.
The fuses in your vehicle serv etodisconnect
faulty circuits. If afuse blows, all the compo-
nents on the circuit and their function swill
fail.
Blown fuses must be replaced with fuses of
the same rating, which you can recognise by
the colour and fuse rating. The fuse ratings
are listed in the fuse allocation chart.
If the newly inserted fuse also blows, have the
cause traced and rectified at aqualified spe-
cialist workshop, e.g. aMercedes-Benz Ser-
vice Centre. Befor

The tyr epressur emonitor is no table to warn
you of asudde nloss of pressure, e.g. if the

pressures are already being monitored.
If an emergency spare wheel is fitted, for a
few minutes the system may continue to
show the tyre pressure of the wheel that has
been removed. If this occurs, not ethat the
value displayed for the position where the
spare wheel is fitted is not the same as the
curren ttyre pressure of the emergency spare
wheel.
Warning messages of the tyr epressure
monitor If the tyre pressure monitor detects
apres-
sure loss in one or more tyres, awarning mes-
sage is shown in the multifunction display and
the yellow tyre pressure monitor warning
lamp comes on.
R If the Please correc ttyre pressure
Please correc ttyre pressure
message appears in the multifunction dis- play, the tyre pressure in at least one tyre is
too low and must be corrected at the next
opportunity.
R If the Check tyre(s) Check tyre(s) message appears in
the multifunction display, the tyre pressure in one or more tyres has dropped signifi-
cantly and the tyres must be checked.
R If the Warnin gtyre defect
Warnin gtyre defect message
appears in the multifunction display, the
tyre pressure in one or more tyres has drop-
ped suddenly and the tyres must be
checked.
Observ ethe instructions and safety notes in
the display messages in the "Tyres" section
(Y page 322).
If the wheel position sonthe vehicle are inter-
changed, the tyre pressures may be displayed for the wrong position sfor as hort time. After
af ew minutes of driving, this is rectified and
the tyre pressures are displayed for the cor-
rect positions.
Restarting the tyr epressure monitor When you restart the tyre pressure monitor,
all existing warning messages are deleted and
the warning lamps go out. The monitor uses
the currently set tyre pressures as the refer-
enc evalues for monitoring. In most cases, the
tyre pressure monitor will automatically
detec tthe new referenc evalues after you
have changed the tyre pressure. However,
you can also define referenc evalues man-
ually as described here. The tyre pressure
monitor then monitors the new tyre pressure values.
X Use the table on the inside of the fuel filler
flap to ensure that the tyre pressure is set
correctly in all four tyres for the current
operatin gconditions.
Also observe the notes in the section on
tyre pressures (Y page 420).
X Make sure that the key is in position 2in the
ignition lock.
X Press the =or; button on the steer-
ing wheel to select the Service Servicemenu. 424
