the vehicle (e.g. swapping the wheels between the axles) or when the warning
light lights up while driving.

Tyre pressure.
- Switch on the ignition.

» Fig. 135 symbol
button for longer than 2 seconds.
If the warning light
lights up
and does not go out after the system configuration,
this indicates a system fault.

,

Tyre pressure indicator
The warning light
lights up when
any of the following conditions are true.
- The tyre pressure is low.
- The structure of the tyre is damaged.
- The vehicle is loaded on one side.
- The wheels of one axle are loaded more heavily (e.g. when towing a
trailer or
when driving uphill or downhill).
- Snow chains are fitted.
- The spare wheel is fitted.
- One wheel per axle was changed.
WARNING
- When the warning light
illuminates,
immediately reduce the speed and
avoid sudden steering and brake manoeuvres. Stop the vehicle as soon as
possible and inspect the tyres and their inflation pressure.
- Under certain circumstances (e.g. sporty style of driving,
wintry or unpaved
roads) the warning light
can be delayed or does
not light up at all.
CAUTION
- The system cannot warn in case of very rapid loss of tyre pressure,
e.g. in the
event of a sudden puncture. In this case carefully bring the vehicle to a
standstill
without sudden steering movements or sharp braking.
- The basic setting must be repeated every 10,000 km or once a year to
ensure
proper functioning of the tyre pressure monitor.
- The tyre pressure monitor does not replace the need to check tyre
pressure
regularly.
