Warning light
The warning light in the instrument panel lights up: – When a loss in pressure has been detected (warning light: lights up continuously).– In the event of a defect in TPMS or a temporary fault (warning light: flashes for 60 seconds, then lights up continuously).– When learning new fitted wheels/wheel transmitters, as long as the vehicle’s own wheels have not yet been recognized (warning light: flashes for 60 seconds, then lights up continuously).
A warning message also appears on the multi- function display in the instrument panel.fPlease see the chapter “OVERVIEW OF WARNING AND INFORMATION MESSAGES” on page 129.
The tire pressure warning light on the instrument panel goes out only when the cause of the fault has been rectified.
Changing a wheel and replacing tires
fNew wheels must be fitted with radio transmitters for Tire Pressure Monitoring System. Before tires are changed, the battery charge condition of the wheel transmitters should be checked.fPlease contact an authorized Porsche dealer.fSwitch off the ignition when changing a wheel.
The tire settings on the multi-function display must be updated after changing a wheel.If the tire settings are not updated, the message “Tire change? Update settings” is displayed on the multi-function display.fUpdate the multi-function display settings the next time the vehicle is stationary.
Pressure increase as the result of temperature increase
In accordance with physical principles, the tire pressure changes as the temperature changes.For every 18 °F (10 °C) change in temperature, the tire pressure increases or decreases by around 1.5 psi/0.1 bar/10 kPa.
Partial monitoring
Monitoring of the other wheels is continued if there is a fault in one or two wheel transmitters.– The tire pressure warning light lights up.– The message “Restricted monitoring” appears on the multi-function display.– No tire pressures are displayed on the multi-function display for wheels with faulty wheel transmitters.
No monitoring
In the event of faults, Tire Pressure Monitoring System cannot monitor the tire pressure. The warning light on the instrument panel lights up and a corresponding message appears on the multi-function display.
Monitoring is not active: – In the event of a defect in TPMS or if more than 2 wheel transmitters are defective.– If wheel transmitters for Tire Pressure Monitoring System are missing.– During the learning phase after the tire settings have been updated.– After a wheel change without updating the tire settings.– If more than four wheel transmitters are recognized.– If there is external interference by other radio sources, e.g. wireless headphones.– If tire temperatures are too high.fPlease see the chapter “OVERVIEW OF WARNING AND INFORMATION MESSAGES” on page 129.
