Tires and wheels

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 placard on the driver’s
door B-pillar (

page 286) or, if avail-

able, the supplemental tire pressure
information on the inside of the fuel
filler flap (

page 292), make sure the

tire inflation pressure of all four tires is
correct.

Press button

è or ÿ on the mul-

tifunction steering wheel repeatedly
until the standard display menu
appears in the multifunction display

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 pressure should only be adjusted on cold
tires. Observe the recommended tire inflation
pressure on the placard on the driver’s door
B-pillar (

page 286). Some vehicles may have

supplemental tire pressure information for driv-
ing at high speeds (

page 292) or for vehicle

loads less than the maximum loaded vehicle con-
dition (

page 292). If such information is pro-

vided, it can be found on the inside of the fuel
filler flap.
