TPMS reset VOLKSWAGEN EOS 2013 1.G Owners Manual

Your vehicle's Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) uses the Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
sensors to indirectly check the tire pressure of all 4 tires while you are driving. The sensors monitor the
tread circumference (rolling circumference) and vibration characteristics of the individual tires. TPMS
warns if there is a significant loss of pressure in one or more tires while the vehicle is moving.
Pressure loss is signaled by the indicator light Ç (described below) as well as by acoustic warnings and
text warnings in the instrument cluster display if your vehicle has this display (Multi-Function Indicator -
MFI).
The original benchmark pressure is the recommended maximum load cold tire inflation pressure for
the tires that come with your vehicle. This pressure is listed on the tire pressure label on the driver
door jamb Error! Bookmark not defined.. After adjusting the tire pressures in all 4 tires, you must
confirm and store the new cold inflation pressures by pressing the SET button, which changes the
benchmark pressure to match the current pressure of the tires on your vehicle
Recalibrating the TPMS to reset the benchmark cold tire inflation pressure with proper use of the SET
button is explained below

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System is configured at the factory with the correct tire inflation
pressure applicable for the vehicle model, engine and factory-installed tires. The tire inflation
pressure is listed on the tire inflation pressure label on the driver door jamb Error! Bookmark not
defined.. The tire inflation pressures for the road tires are listed on this label. The inflation pressure
for the compact spare is as specified on the tire pressure label or on a separate label for the
compact spare, if there is one. In the event of a discrepancy between the above figures and the tire
pressures listed on the tire inflation pressure label, the pressures listed on the label are the ones you
should use. The listed pressure applies to all road tires.
If different tires are installed that do not have the same cold tire inflation pressure as the tires
originally installed on your vehicle, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System cannot properly monitor tire
inflation pressures unless the TPMS is reset to the new tire pressures 227. Authorized Volkswagen
dealers and authorized Volkswagen Service Facilities have the necessary special tools and can
reset the TPMS for the new tires on your vehicle.
