shouldbechecked at leastonce amonth

when coldand inflatedtothe pressure rec-

ommended by the vehiclemanufacturer on

the Tire and Loading Informationplacard on

the driver's door B-pillar or the tire pressure

labelonthe insideofthe fuel fillerflap. If your

vehiclehas tiresofadifferent size thanthe

size indicated on the Tire and Loading Infor-

mationplacard or the tire pressure label, you

shoulddetermine the propertire pressure for

thosetires.

As an addedsafety feature, your vehiclehas

been equipped with atire pressure monitoring

system (TPMS)thatilluminatesalow tire pres-

sure telltale when one or moreofyourtires

aresignificantlyunderinflated.Accordingly,

when the lowtire pressure telltale illuminates,

youshouldstop and check your tiresassoon

as possible, and inflate themtothe proper

pressure. Driving on asignificantlyunderin-

flated tire causes the tire to overheat and can

lead to tire failure. Underinflationalso

reducesfuelefficiency and tire treadlife, and

mayaffect the vehicle's handling and stop-

ping ability.

Please note thatthe TPMS is not asubstitute

for propert

ire ma

intenance,and it is the driv-

er'sresponsibility to maintain correct tire

pressure, evenifunderinflationhas not

reachedthe level to triggerillumination of the

TPMS lowtire pressure telltale.

Your vehiclehas also been equipped with a

TPMS malfunctionindicator to indicate if the

system is not operating properly.The TPMS

malfunctionindicator is combinedwiththe

lowtire pressure telltale.Whenthe system

detects amalfunction, the warning lamp will

flash for approximately aminute and then

remaincontinuously illuminated. This

sequence will be repeated every time the vehi-

cle is started as long as the malfunction

exists.

When the malfunctionindicator is illuminated,

the system maynot be able to detect or signal

lowtire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunc-

tions mayoccurfor avariety of reasons,

including the installationofincompatible

replacement or alternate tiresorwheelson

the vehiclethatprevent the TPMS fromfunc-

tioning properly.Alwayscheck the TPMS mal-

functiontelltale after replacing one or more

tiresorwheelsonyourvehicletoensurethat

the replacement or alternate tiresand wheels

allowthe TPMS to continue to functionprop-

erly.

It is the driver's responsibility to set the tire

pressure to thatrecommendedfor coldtires

which is suitablefor the operating situation

(

Y page 263).Note thatthe correct tire pressure

for the curre

nt operating situationmustfirst be

taught-intothe tire pressure monitor. If asub-

stantiallossofpressure occurs, the warning

threshold for the warning message is aligned to

the taught-inreference values. Restart the tire

pressure monitor after adjusting the pressure of

the coldtires(

Y page 270). The current pres-

sures aresaved as new reference values. As a

result, awarning message will appear if the tire

pressure drops significantly.

The tire pressure monitor does not warn youof

an incorrectly set tire pressure. Observe the

notesonthe recommendedtire pressure

(

Y page 263).

The tire pressure monitor is not able to warn you

of asuddenlossofpressure, e.g.ifthe tire is

penetrated by aforeign object. In the event of a

sudden loss of pressure, bring the vehicletoa

halt by braking carefully. Avoidabruptsteering

movements.
