Operation
Tires and wheels
i If you have overfilled the tire, release tire in-
flation 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.
Run Flat Indicator (Canada only)
G
Warning!
While the vehicle is being driven, the Run
Flat Indicator monitors the set tire inflation
pressures by evaluating each wheel’s rota-
tional speed. This allows the system to de-
tect a significant loss of pressure in a tire.
If a wheel’s rotational speed changes due
to falling tire inflation pressure, you will
see a corresponding warning message in
the multifunction display.
When the multifunction display shows the
messageTire Pressure Check Tires,
one or more of your tires is significantly un-
derinflated. You should stop and check your
tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to
the proper tire inflation pressure as indicat-
ed on the vehicle’s Tire and Loading
Information placard or, if available, on the
tire inflation pressure label. Driving on a sig-
nificantly under-inflated tire causes the tire
to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Un-
derinflation also reduces fuel efficiency and
tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s
handling and stopping ability. Each tire, in-
cluding the spare, should be checked

Install the valve cap.
Repeat this procedure for each tire.
The Run Flat Indicator may function in a
restricted manner or with a delay

vehicle

in presence of ice and snow
if you are driving on a loose surface
(e.g. sand or gravel)
monthly when cold and set to the recom-
mended tire inflation pressure as specified
on the Tire and Loading Information placard
on the driver’s door B-pillar (page 352) or,
if available, on the tire inflation pressure la-
bel located on the inside of the fuel filler flap
ț
if you are driving in a very sporty
manner (involving rapid acceleration or
high speeds in curves)
(page 337).
