WARNING
A damaged regular tire with low or missā
ing tire inflation pressure impacts handling,
such as steering and braking response. Run-flat
tires can maintain limited stability. There is risk
of an accident. Do not continue driving if the
vehicle is not equipped with run-flat tires. Obā
serve the information on run-flat tires and conā
tinued driving with these tires. ā
A low tire inflation pressure might turn on DSC
Dynamic Stability Control.
Actions in the event of a flat tire
Normal tires1.Identify the damaged tire.
Do this by checking the air pressure in all
four tires.
The tire pressure gauge of the Mobility Sysā
tem, refer to page 188, can be used for this
purpose.
If the tire inflation pressure in all four tires is
correct, the Tire Pressure Monitor may not
have been initialized. In this case, initialize
the system.
If identification of flat tire damage is not
possible, please contact a dealerās service
center or another qualified service center or
repair shop.2.Fix the flat tire using the Mobility System,
refer to page 188.
Use of tire sealant, e.g., the Mobility System,
may damage the TPM wheel electronics. In this
case, have the electronics checked at the next
opportunity and have them replaced if needed.
Run-flat tires Maximum speed
You may continue driving with a damaged tire
at speeds up to 50 mph/80 km/h.
Continued driving with a flat tire
If continuing to drive with a damaged tire:1.Avoid sudden braking and steering maneuā
vers.2.Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph/80 km/h.3.Check the air pressure in all four tires at the
next opportunity.
If the tire inflation pressure in all four tires is
shown to be correct, it is possible that the
Tire Pressure Monitor did not perform a reā
set. Then perform the reset.
Possible driving distance with complete loss of
tire inflation pressure:
The possible driving distance after a loss of tire
inflation pressure depends on cargo load, drivā
ing style and road conditions.
A vehicle with an average load has a possible
driving range of approx. 50 miles/80 km.
A vehicle with a damaged tire reacts differently,
e.g., it has reduced lane stability during brakā
ing, a longer braking distance and different
self-steering properties. Adjust your driving
style accordingly. Avoid abrupt steering maā
neuvers or driving over obstacles, e.g., curbs,
potholes, etc.
Because the possible driving distance depends
on how the vehicle is used during the trip, the
actual distance may be shorter or longer deā
pending on the driving speed, road conditions,
external temperature, cargo load, etc.
WARNING
Your vehicle handles differently when a
run-flat tire is damaged and has low or missing
tire inflation pressure, e.g., your lane stability is
reduced when braking, braking distances are
longer and the self-steering properties will
change. There is risk of an accident.
Drive moderately and do not exceed a speed of
50 mph/80 km/h. ā

Final tire failure
Vibrations or loud noises while driving can indiā
cate the final failure of a tire.
Reduce speed and stop; otherwise, pieces of
the tire could come loose and cause an acciā
dent.
Do not continue driving. Contact a dealerās
service center or another qualified service cenā
ter or repair shop.
Required inflation pressure check
message
A Check Control message is displayed in the folā
lowing situationsā·The system has detected a wheel change,
but no reset was done.ā·Inflation was not carried out according to
specifications.ā·The tire inflation pressure has fallen below
the level of the last confirmation.
In this case:
ā·Check the tire pressure and correct as
needed.ā·Carry out a reset of the system after a tire
change.
System limits
The system does not function properly if a reset
has not been carried out, e.g., a flat tire is reā
ported though tire inflation pressures are corā
rect.
The tire inflation pressure depends on the tire's
temperature. Driving or exposure to the sun
will increase the tire's temperature, thus inā
creasing the tire inflation pressure. The tire inā
flation pressure is reduced when the tire temā perature falls again. These circumstances may
cause a warning when temperatures fall very
sharply.
The system cannot indicate sudden serious tire
damage caused by external circumstances.
Malfunction
The yellow warning lamp flashes and
then lights up continuously. A Check
Control message is displayed. No flat
tire or loss of tire pressure can be detected.
Examples and recommendations in the followā
ing situations:ā·A wheel without TPM electronics is
mounted, e.g. emergency wheel: Have it
checked by a dealerās service center or anā
other qualified service center or repair shop
as needed.ā·Malfunction: Have system checked by a
dealerās service center or another qualified
service center or repair shop.ā·TPM was unable to complete the reset. Reā
set the system again.ā·Interference through systems or devices
with the same radio frequency: After leavā
ing the area of the interference, the system
automatically becomes active again.
Declaration according to NHTSA/FMVSS
138 Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Each tire, including the spare (if provided)
should be checked monthly when cold and inā
flated to the inflation pressure recommended
by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your
vehicle has tires of a different size than the size
indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label, you should determine the
proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.) As
an added safety feature, your vehicle has been
equipped with a tire pressure monitoring sysā
tem (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure
telltale when one or more of your tires is signifiā
cantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the
low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should
stop and check your tires as soon as possible,
and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving
on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the
tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Unā
der-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and

Wheels and tiresVehicle features and opā
tions
This chapter describes all standard, country-
specific and optional features offered with the
series. It also describes features that are not
necessarily available in your car, e. g., due to
the selected options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related functions and sysā
tems. The respectively applicable country proviā
sions must be observed when using the respecā
tive features and systems.
Tire inflation pressure Safety informationThe tire characteristics and tire inflation presā
sure influence the following:ā·The service life of the tires.ā·Road safety.ā·Driving comfort.
Checking the tire inflation pressure
WARNING
A tire with low or missing tire inflation
pressure impacts handling, such as steering
and braking response. There is risk of an acciā
dent. Regularly check the tire inflation pressure,
and correct it as needed, e.g. twice a month
and before a long trip. ā
Tires have a natural, consistent loss of tire inflaā tion pressure.
Tires heat up while driving, and the tire inflation
pressure increases along with the tire's temperā
ature. The tire inflation pressure specifications
relate to cold tires or tires with the ambient
temperature.
Only check the tire inflation pressure when the
tires are cold. This means after driving no more
than 1.25 miles/2 km or when the vehicle has
been parked for at least 2 hours.
The displays of inflation devices may under-
read by up to 0.1 bar.
For Flat Tire Monitor: after correcting the tire
inflation pressure, reinitialize the Flat Tire Moniā
tor.
For Tire Pressure Monitor: after correcting the
tire inflation pressure, reset the Tire Pressure
Monitor.ā·Reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor.ā·Reinitialize the Tire Pressure Monitor.
Checking the inflation pressure of the
emergency wheel
Located behind the bumper on the underside
of the vehicle is an opening for checking the
tire inflation pressure.
Pressure specifications
The tire inflation pressure table, refer to
page 179, contains all tire inflation pressure
specifications for the specified tire sizes at the
ambient temperature. The tire inflation presā
sure values apply to tire sizes approved by the
manufacturer of the vehicle for the vehicle
type.
To identify the correct tire inflation pressure,
please note the following:
