Tire Pressure Monitor TPM*
The concept
TPM checks the inflation pressures of the four
mounted tires. The system notifies you if there
is a significant loss of pressure in one or more
tires.
Functional requirement
In order to assure the reliable reporting of a flat
tire, the system must be reset while all tire infla-
tion pressures are correct.
Always use wheels with TPM electronics. Oth-
erwise, the system may malfunction.

Start the engine - do not drive away.
Start the initialization using "Reset".
Start to drive.
Each time a tire inflation pressure has
been corrected or a wheel or tire has been
changed, reset the system.<
The initialization is completed during the trip.
"Flat Tire Monitor active" is displayed again on
the Control Display.
System limitations
TPM cannot warn you in advance of sud-
den severe tire damage caused by out-
side influences.<
Indication of a flat tire
The warning lamps come on in yellow
and red. A message appears on the
Control Display. In addition, an
acoustic signal sounds. There is a flat
tire or substantial loss of tire pressure.
The system does not work correctly if it has not
been reset; for example, a flat tire may be indi-
cated even though the tire inflation pressures
are correct.
1.
Reduce your speed and carefully stop the
car. Avoid sudden braking and steering
maneuvers.
The system is inactive and cannot indicate a flat
tire if a wheel without TPM electronics has been
mounted, or if TPM is temporarily malfunction-
ing due to other systems or devices using the
same radio frequency.
2.
Identify the damaged tire. To do so, check
the tire pressure using the M Mobility Sys-
tem, refer to Producing the tire inflation
pressure on page 219.
Status indicator on the Control Display
3.
Repair the flat tire with the M Mobility Sys-
tem, refer to page 218.
The color of the wheels represents the status of
the tires and the system.
TPM takes into account that tire pressures
change while the vehicle is being driven. The
tire pressures do not need to be corrected
unless the TPM instructs you to do so by means
of color indicators.
Malfunction
The warning lamps come on in yel-
low. A message appears on the Con-
trol Display. The Flat Tire Monitor has
a malfunction or has failed. Have the
Green
system checked as soon as possible.
The tire inflation pressure corresponds to the
established target value.
"TPM active" appears on the Control Display.
