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 339) or, if avail-

able, the supplemental tire pressure
information on the inside of the fuel fill-
er flap (

page 346), make sure the tire

inflation pressure of all four tires is cor-
rect.

̈

Press button

è or ÿ on the mul-

tifunction steering wheel repeatedly
until the standard display menu ap-
pears in the multifunction display
(

page 156).

i

If a condition causing the TPMS to mal-
function develops, it may take up to
10 minutes for the system to signal a
malfunction using the TPMS telltale
flashing and illumination sequence.

The telltale extinguishes after a few
minutes driving if the malfunction has
been corrected.

i

Operating radio transmission equip-
ment (e.g. wireless headsets, two-way
radios) in or near the vehicle could
cause the TPMS to malfunction.

i

Reactivate the TPMS after adjusting
the tire inflation pressure to the infla-
tion pressure recommended for the
vehicle operating condition. Tire pres-
sure should only be adjusted on cold
tires. Observe the recommended tire
inflation pressure on the placard on the
driver’s door B-pillar (

page 339).

Some vehicles may have supplemental
tire pressure information for driving at
high speeds (

page 346) or for vehicle

loads less than the maximum loaded
vehicle condition (

page 346). If such

information is provided, it can be found
on the inside of the fuel filler flap.
