Problem Possible cause/consequence Suggested solution
H The yellow warning lamp for the
tire pressure monitoring system
comes on.
The tire pressure monitoring system detects
a loss of pressure in at least one tire.
̈ Bring the vehicle to a halt, avoiding
abrupt steering and braking maneu-
vers. Observe the traffic situation
around you.
̈ Read and observe messages in the
multifunction display.
The warning lamp goes out once the tire
inflation pressure monitor has been reac-
tivated after the tire inflation pressure
has been corrected.
Warning! G
When the tire pressure monitoring system
warning light is lit, one or more of your tires
is significantly under-inflated. You should
stop in a safe location and check your tires
as soon as possible, and inflate them to the
proper pressure as indicated on the vehi-
cle’s tire information placard. Driving on a
significantly under-inflated tire causes the
tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency
and tire tread life, and may affect the vehi-
cle’s handling and stopping ability. Each tire,
including the spare, should be checked
monthly when cold and set to the recom-
mended inflation pressure as specified in
the vehicle placard and owner’s manual.
i
The recommended tire inflation pres-
sures for your vehicle can be found on
the tire placard on the driver’s door
B-pillar, not in the owner’s manual.
