WARNINGS
The system may take longer to
detect low pressure in the tires if you
have fitted snow chains.
Do not drive on significantly
under-inflated tires. This may cause
the tires to overheat and fail.
Under-inflation reduces fuel efficiency, tire
tread life and may also affect your ability
to drive the vehicle safely.
Do not bend or damage the valves
when you are inflating the tires.
Have tires installed by properly
trained technicians.
Note: After changing the tires or sensors
the system will take a few minutes to reset.
During this period the system is operational
but a warning lamp may appear.
Note: If you fit tires that do not have
monitoring sensors, a message will be
shown in the display. See Information
Messages (page 102). Confirm this message
to deactivate the system.
The system monitors the pressure in the
tires using sensors located on the wheels
and a receiver located in your vehicle.
When the system detects low pressure in
the tires, a warning message is displayed
in the information display. See
Information Messages (page 102).
If a low pressure warning message is
displayed in the information display, check
the tire pressures as soon as possible and
inflate them to the recommended
pressure. See Technical Specifications
(page 262). If this happens frequently, have
the cause determined and rectified as soon
as possible.
Checking the tire pressures
Note: If the tire pressures are greater than
or equal to 3.3 bar (48 lbf/in²), you will see
the + symbol below the pressure value. The
system only measures pressure up to 3.3
bar (48 lbf/in²). The + symbol indicates that
the tire pressures may be higher.
Note: Type 3 instrument clusters have a
slightly different menu structure. Select
Settings first to access Information.
1. Press the right arrow button on the
steering wheel to enter the main menu.
2. Highlight Information with the up and
down buttons and press the right arrow
button.
3. Highlight Tire Pressures with the up
and down buttons and press the right
arrow button.
4. Highlight the desired setting and press
the OK button to confirm the setting.
5. Press the left arrow button to exit the
menu. Hold the left arrow button
pressed to return to the trip computer
display.
Setting the vehicle load
Note: Type 3 instrument clusters have a
slightly different menu structure. Select
Settings first to access Setup.
Correct tire pressure settings depend on
vehicle load. See Technical
Specifications (page 262). The system
can only detect low pressure if you have
entered the current vehicle load.
1. Press the right arrow button on the
steering wheel to enter the main menu.
2. Highlight Setup with the up and down
buttons and press the right arrow
button.
3. Highlight Tyre Pressures with the up
and down buttons and press the right
arrow button.
