Carefully bring the vehicle to a halt, avoiding abrupt
steering and braking maneuvers. Observe the traffic
situation around you.
X Check and correct tire inflation pressure as required
(Y page 124).
If the tire inflation pressure in the respective tire(s) has
(have) been corrected, the combination low tire pressure/TPMS
malfunction telltale goes out after a few minutes of driving.

your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the Tire and Loading
Information placard, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those
tires.
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressur emonitoring
system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires
is significantly underinflated.
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
underinflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Underinflation also increases energy consumption, reduces tire tread life, and may affect
the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute
for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire
pressure, even if underinflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the
TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the
low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects amalfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately 1 minute and then remain continuously illuminated.
This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction
exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect
or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of
incompatible replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS
from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one
or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires
and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly. What to do if ...

when possible.
X Make sure the tire valve of the damaged
tire is locate dbelow the horizontal axle
of the wheel hub.
X Engage the parking brake.
X Turn the steering wheel so that the front
wheels are in a straight ahead position.
X Move the gear selector lever to park
position P.
X Switch off the drive system.
X Remove the key from the starter switch
and take the key with you.

to do so.
X Have any passenger exit the vehicle at a
safe distance from the roadway. Using the tire repair kit
! Depending on the type of damage on the
tire, the tire sealant could damage the
sensor of the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS)*. Such damage is not
covered by the smart Limited Warranty.
When having the damaged tire replaced,
also have the TPMS sensors* checked for
proper function. When the sensor is
damaged, the TPMS* will not function
properly. The sensor must then be
replaced at an authorized electric drive
smart center as soon as possible.
i Depending on production date of your
vehicle, it will be equipped with version
1 or version 2 of the tire repair kit. 180

Notes on the vehicle’s electrical
system
The vehicle’s electrical system provides
power for the electric drive and all
electrical consumers or components of the
vehicle.
Power is supplied to the vehicle via two
batteries:
R 12-volt battery
R High-voltage battery Notes on the 12‑volt battery
Your vehicle’s 12‑volt battery is located in
the passenger footwell below the footrest
(Y page 192).
The 12 volt battery should always be
sufficiently charged in order to achieve
its rated service life. Refer to the
Scheduled Maintenance Guide (USA only) or
the Service booklet (Canada only) for
battery maintenance intervals.
If you use your vehicle mostly for short-
distance trips, you will need to have the 12 volt battery charge checked more
frequently.
When replacing the battery, always use
batteries approved by smart. For
information, contact an authorized
electric drive smart center.
If you do not intend to operat
eyour vehicle
for an extended period of time, consult an
authorized electric drive smart center
about steps you need to observe. G
WARNING
