Repeat this procedure for each tire.
Regularly check your tire inflation pressure
at least once a month.
Follow the steps below to achieve correct
tire inflation pressure:
Checking tire inflation pressure
electronically*
Check and adjust the tire inflation
pressure when the tires are cold. The tires
can be considered cold if the vehicle has
been parked for at least 3 hours or driven ̈ Firmly press a tire gauge onto the
less than 1 mile (1.6 km).
̈
Remove the cap from the valve on one
tire.
The tire inflation pressure monitor only
functions on wheels that are equipped with
the proper electronic sensors. It monitors
the tire inflation pressure, as selected by
the driver, in all four tires. A warning is
issued to alert you to a decrease in tire
inflation pressure in one or more of the
tires.
valve.
If you check the tire inflation pressure
when the tires are warm (the vehicle has
been driven for several miles or sitting less
than 3 hours), the reading will be
approximately 4 psi (0.3 bar) higher than
the cold reading. This is normal. Do not let
air out to match the specified cold tire in-
flation pressure. Otherwise, the tire will be
underinflated.
̈ Read tire inflation pressure on tire
gauge and check against the recom-
mended tire inflation pressure on the
placard on the driver’s door B-pillar
(୴ page 292). If necessary, add air to
achieve the recommended tire inflation
pressure.
You can call up the tire inflation pressure
monitoring display using the control
system (୴ page 137).
i
If you have overfilled the tire, release
tire inflation pressure by pushing the
metal stem of the valve with e.g. a tip of
a pen. Then recheck the tire inflation
pressure with the tire gauge.
