No monitoringIn the event of faults the tire pressure monitoring
cannot monitor the tire pressure.
The warning light on the instrument panel and a
message on the multi-purpose display light up.
Monitoring is not active when:
– the tire pressure monitoring is faulty,
– wheel transmitters for the tire pressure
monitoring are not present,
– temporarily after changing a wheel,
– has detected too many wheel transmitters,
– there is external interference by other radio
sources, e.g., wireless headphones,
– tire temperatures are too high.
fPlease observe the chapter “WARNING LIGHTS
AND WARNING MESSAGES” on Page 124.fAll warnings and messages in the tire pressure

3 - Flat-tire warning (as of -6 psi/-0,4 bar)
In accordance with physical principles, the air
pressure changes as the temperature changes.
The tire pressure increases or decreases by
around 1.5 psi (0.1 bar) for a temperature change
of 50°F (10°C).Tire pressure specificationsThe tire pressure must match the prescribed value
(required pressure).
You can find information on the tire pressure for
cold tires (68°F/20°C):
– In the TIRE PRESSURE menu (filling informa-
tion):
As a deviation from the required pressure for
each wheel if the system has learned the
values.
– In the TIRE PRESSURE menu (filling informa-
tion):
As a required pressure for each axle if the
system has not learned the values.
– On the tire pressure plate in the front left door
aperture for each wheel.
– In this Owner’s Manual:
Please observe the chapter “TIRE PRES-
SURES, COLD” on Page 385.Insufficient tire pressure can cause tires to
overheat and thus be damaged – even invisibly.
Hidden tire damage is not eliminated by subse-
quently correcting the tire pressure.
