Tire Pressure Control (RDC)*
This system regularly checks tire pres-
sure and monitors all four tires even
while driving, so you do not have to.
Behind the valve stem in every wheel,
there is an electronic chip which is
designed for severe-duty applications
and long service life. It contains a pres-
sure sensor, a transmitter and a battery.
The pressure is measured in extremely
short time intervals and then transmitted
by a radio signal. If an irregularity is
detected, the transmission rate is
increased.

There is an antenna located right near
every wheel in the vehicle body. This
antenna picks up signals from its
respective wheel. A central electronics
system evaluates the quadruple signals
which it receives and forwards any
changes.
The RDC provides an important contri-
bution to driving safety.
