Reactivating Advanced TPMS
The TPMS must be reactivated when you
have adjusted the tire inflation pressure to
a new level (e.g. because of different load
or driving conditions). The TPMS is then
recalibrated to the current tire inflation
pressures.
̈
Using the tire Tire and Loading Informa-
tion placard on the driver’s door B-pillar
(
୴
page 585) or, if available, the sup-
plemental tire inflation pressure
information on the inside of the fuel fill-
er flap (
୴
page 570), make sure the tire
inflation pressure of all four tires is cor-
rect.

Warning!
G
It is the driver’s responsibility to calibrate
the TPMS on the recommended cold infla-
tion pressure. Underinflated tires affect the
ability to steer or brake the vehicle. You
might lose control over the vehicle.
i
Reactivate the TPMS after adjusting the tire
inflation pressure to the inflation pressure rec-
ommended for the vehicle operating condition.
Tire inflation pressure should only be adjusted
on cold tires. Observe the recommended tire in-
flation pressure on the Tire and Loading Informa-
tion placard on the driver’s door B-pillar
(
୴
page 585). Some vehicles may have supple-
mental tire inflation pressure information for
driving at high speeds (
୴
page 591) or for vehi-
cle loads less than the maximum loaded vehicle
condition. If such information is provided, it can
be found on the inside of the fuel filler flap
(
୴
page 570).
i
After wheel rotation or sensor replacement,
the vehicle must be parked for 20 minutes be-
fore attempting to reactivate the TPMS.
