MOExtended system*
The MOExtended system allows you to
continue driving your vehicle even if there
is a total loss of pressure in one or more
tires.
You may only use the MOExtended system
in conjunction with the Run Flat Indicator
(Canada only) (

(USA only) (

For information on driving in case of pres-
sure loss in one or more tires (emergency
mode), see the “Practical hints” section
