System limits
The Flat Tire Monitor keeps track of the
inflation pressures in the four fitted tires
as you drive. The system provides an
alert whenever the inflation pressure in

cate sudden severe tire damage
caused by outside factors and does not
detect a natural, even pressure drop in
one tire drops significantly in relation to all four tires.<
the pressure in another tire.
In the following situations, the system
could be delayed or malfunction:
The check of the tire inflation pressure
is based on monitoring the relative
speeds of the wheels. A flat is detected >When driving on snow-covered or
and reported on the basis of a deviation
in certain speed ratios.
slippery road surfaces
>In the case of performance-oriented
driving: slip in the drive wheels, high
lateral acceleration
False alarms and undetected loss of
pressure may occur when you are
driving with snow chains fitted.
The brake lamps light up in two stages,
depending on how forcefully you apply
the brakes.
