At the next opportunity, check the air pres-
sure in all four tires.
The initialization process adopts the set infla-
tion tire pressures as reference values for the
detection of a flat tire. Initialization is started by
confirming the inflation pressures.
If the tire inflation pressure in all four
tires is correct, the Flat Tire Monitor

must then be initialized.<
The system is not initialized when traveling with
snow chains*.<
