then remain illuminated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups
as long as the malfunction exists. When the
malfunction indicator is lit, the system may
not be able to detect or signal low tire
pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of
reasons, including the installation of
incompatible replacement or alternate tires
or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the
TPMS from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS malfunction indicator after
replacing one or more tires or wheels on your
vehicle to ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.

If the tire pressure monitoring system
malfunctions, it may take up to 10 minutes
before the malfunction is displayed to you
by the tire pressure warning lamp flashing
for 60 seconds and then remaining lit.
When the error has been rectified, the tire
pressure warning lamp goes out after a few
minutes of driving.
Information on tire pressures is displayed in
the multifunction display. After a few minutes
of driving, the current tire pressure of each
tire is shown in the multifunction display.
i
The tire pressure values in the on-board
computer may deviate from the inflation
pressure as measured using a tire pressure
checker at the filling station. The tire
pressures shown in the on-board computer
refer to pressures at sea level. At high
altitudes, a tire pressure checker will
display a higher tire pressure than the on-
board computer. In this case do not reduce
the tire pressure.
i
If radio transmitting equipment (e.g. radio
headphones, a two-way radio) is operated
in or near the vehicle, this can lead to the
function of the tire pressure monitor being
impaired.

If the vehicle has been parked for longer than
20 minutes and subsequently you have not
driven faster than 15 mph (25 km/h), the

After a teach-in process, the tire pressure
monitor automatically detects new wheels or
new sensors. As long as it is not possible to
allocate tire pressure values to individual
wheel positions, the Tire Pressure
Monitor Active message appears instead
of the tire pressure display. The tire pressures
are already being monitored.

If a spare wheel is installed, the system
may continue to show the tire pressure of
the wheel that has been removed for a few
minutes. If this occurs, note that the value
