label on the on the inside of the fuel filler
flap. The tire inflation pressures are not
listed in the Operator’s Manual.
When the multifunction display shows the
messageTire Pressure Check Tires,
one or more of your tires are significantly
underinflated. You should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper tire inflation pressure as
indicated on the vehicle’s Tire and Loading
Information placard or, if available, on the
tire inflation pressure label.
G Warning!
The Run Flat Indicator does not provide a
warning for wrongly selected tire inflation
pressures. Always adjust tire inflation
pressure according to the Tire and Loading
Information placard on the driver’s door
B-pillar or, if available, on the tire inflation
pressure label located on the inside of the
fuel filler flap.
Run Flat Indicator (Canada only)
While the vehicle is being driven, the Run Flat
Indicator monitors the set tire inflation
pressures by evaluating each wheel’s
rotational speed. This allows the system to
detect 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.
Driving on a significantly underinflated tire
causes the tire to overheat and can lead to
tire failure. Underinflation also reduces fuel
efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect
the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
Each tire, including the spare, should be
checked every other week when cold and
set to the recommended tire inflation
pressure as specified on the Tire and
Loading Information placard on the driver’s
door B-pillar or, if available, on the tire
inflation pressure label located on the
inside of the fuel filler flap.
The Run Flat Indicator does not replace
regular checks of the tire inflation
pressures since a gradual pressure loss in
more than one tire cannot be detected by
the Run Flat Indicator.
The Run Flat Indicator is not able to issue a
warning due to a sudden dramatic loss of
tire inflation pressure (e.g. tire blowout
caused by a foreign object). In this case
bring the vehicle to a halt by carefully
applying the brakes and avoiding abrupt
steering maneuvers.
The Run Flat Indicator may function in a
restricted manner or with a delay
