Troubleshooting
Low tyre pressure
The control lamp switches on yellow.
The ination pressure of one or more wheels
is much lower than the value set by the driver,
or the tyre has structural damage. In addition,
a audible warning sounds and a text message is
displayed on the instrument panel screen.
●
Stop the vehicle! Stop the vehicle safely
as soon as possible.
●
Check all tyres and pressures.
●
Replace any damaged tyres.

The control lamp ashes for approximately 1
minute and then lights up permanently in yel-
low.
●
If the tyre is inated correctly, switch the ig-
nition o and on again.

Re-calibrate the tyre pressure monitoring
system ›››page313

Tyre repair
TMS (Tyre Mobility System) punc-
ture repair kit
The puncture repair kit (Tyre Mobility System)
will reliably seal punctures caused by the pene-
tration of a foreign body of up to about 4 mm
in diameter. Do not remove foreign objects,
e.g. screws or nails, from the tyre.
After inserting the sealant residue in the tyre,
you must again check the tyre pressure about
10minutes after starting the engine.
You should only use the tyre mobility set if the
vehicle is parked in a safe place, you are famil-
iar with the procedure and you have the nec-
essary tyre mobility set. Otherwise, you should
seek professional assistance.
Do not use the tyre sealant in the following
cases:
●
If the wheel rim has been damaged.
●
In outside temperatures below -20°C (-4°F).
●
In the event of cuts or perforations in the tyre
greater than 4 mm.
●
If you have been driving with very low pres-
sure or a completely at tyre.
●
If the sealant bottle has passed its use by
date.
WARNING
Using the puncture repair kit can be danger-
ous, particularly when lling the tyre on the
roadside. To reduce the risk of serious injury,
consider the following:
●
Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible.
Park it at a safe distance from surrounding
traic to ll the tyre.
●
Ensure the ground on which you park is at
and solid.
●
All passengers and particularly children
must keep a safe distance from the work
area.
●
Turn on the hazard warning lights to warn
other road users.
●
Always stop the engine, apply the elec-
tronic parking brake and put it in gear if tted
with a manual gearbox, or press the parking
lock button P if tted with an automatic gear
box, to reduce the risk of involuntary move-
ment of the vehicle .
●
Use the tyre mobility system only if you
are familiar with the necessary procedures.
Otherwise, you should seek professional as-
sistance.
●
The tyre mobility set is intended for tem-
porary emergency use only until you can
reach the nearest specialised workshop.
●
Replace the repaired tyre with the tyre mo-
bility set as soon as possible.
