Status indicator on the Control Display

The color of the tires represents the status of
the tires and the system.
TPM takes into account that tire pressures
change while the vehicle is being driven. The
tire pressures do not need to be corrected
unless the TPM instructs you to do so by means
of color indicators.

Green

The tire inflation pressure corresponds to the
established target value.
"TPM active" appears on the Control Display.

One wheel yellow

There is a flat tire or substantial loss of tire pres-
sure in the indicated tire. A message appears on
the Control Display.

All wheels yellow

There is a flat tire or substantial loss of tire pres-
sure in several tires. A message appears on the
Control Display.

Gray

The system cannot detect a puncture.
Possible reasons for this:

>

TPM is being reset

>

Temporary malfunction caused by systems
or devices using the same radio frequency

>

Malfunction

Resetting the system

Each time a tire inflation pressure has
been corrected or a wheel or tire has been

changed, reset the system.
