spare wheel MINI Paceman 2016 Owner's Manual (Mini Connected)

Final tire failure
Vibrations or loud noises while driving can indi‐
cate the final failure of the tire.
Reduce your speed and stop. Parts of tires can
peel away, which could cause an accident.
Do not continue driving. Contact a dealer’s
service center or another qualified service cen‐
ter or repair shop.
Message indicating that the inflation
pressure needs to be checked
The yellow warning light lights up.
A Check Control message is displayed.▷The system has detected that a wheel was
changed but a reset was not performed.▷The tire was not inflated according to speci‐
fications.▷The tire pressure has dropped since the last
confirmation.
In this case:
▷Check the tire inflation pressure and correct
it if necessary.▷After changing a wheel, reset the system.
System limits
The system will not function properly if a reset
was not performed, e.g., it may identify a tire as
flat although the tire is filled to the correct infla‐
tion pressure.
The tire pressure depends on the temperature
of the tire. An increase in the tire temperature,
e.g., while driving or due to sunlight, increases
the tire inflation pressure. The tire pressure de‐
creases when the tire temperature drops. In
case of severe temperature drops, this behavior
may lead to a warning on account of the de‐
fined warning limits.
The system cannot indicate sudden serious tire
damage caused by external circumstances.
Malfunction
The yellow warning light flashes yellow
and then lights up continuously.
A Check Control message is displayed.
A flat tire or tire inflation pressure loss cannot

ing situations:▷A wheel without TPM electronics is

Declaration according to NHTSA/FMVSS
138 Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems
Each tire, including the spare (if provided)
should be checked monthly when cold and in‐
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.).

Changing wheels InformationThe vehicle may be equipped with conven‐tional tires with the Mobility System, refer to
page 162, or with run-flat tires, refer to
page 162.
No spare tire is available in the case of a flat
tire.
The suitable tools for changing wheels are

Safety measures
▷Park the vehicle as far as possible from
passing traffic and on solid ground. Switch
on the hazard warning system.▷Set the parking brake and move the selec‐
tor lever to position P.▷Have all vehicle occupants get out of the
vehicle and ensure that they remain out‐
side the immediate area in a safe place,
such as behind a guardrail.▷If a warning triangle or portable hazard
warning lamp is required, set it up on the
roadside at an appropriate distance from
the rear of the vehicle.▷Change the wheel only on a level, firm sur‐
face which is not slippery. The vehicle or
the jack could slip to the side if you attempt
to raise the vehicle on a soft or slippery sur‐
face such as snow, ice, tiles, etc.▷Do not use a wooden block or similar object
as a support base for the jack, as this would
prevent it from extending to its full support
height and reduce its load-carrying ca‐
pacity.▷To avoid serious or fatal injury: never lie un‐
der the vehicle, and never start the engine
while it is supported by the jack.
