Operation
i If a condition causing the TPMS to malfunc-
tion develops, it may take up to 10 minutes for
the system to signal a malfunction using the
TPMS h indicator lamp flashing and illumina-
tion sequence. The h indicator lamp extin-
guishes after driving a few minutes if the
malfunction has been corrected.
i Operating radio transmission equipment
(e.g. wireless headsets, two-way radios) in or
near the vehicle could cause the TPMS to mal-
function.
Reactivating the TPMS
The TPMS must be reactivated when you
have adjusted the tire inflation pressure to
a new level (e.g. because of different load
or driving conditions). The TPMS is then
recalibrated to the current tire inflation
pressures.
E Make sure that the tire inflation pres-
sure of all four tires is correct, using the
tire and loading information label
1
or
the tire inflation pressure label located
on the driver's door B-pillar
(e page 174).
In addition to the label, also consult the
tire inflation pressure table
(e page 291).
i Reactivate the TPMS after adjusting the tire
inflation pressure to the inflation pressure rec-
ommended for the vehicle operating condition.
Tire inflation pressure should only be adjusted
on cold tires.
Observe the recommended tire inflation pres-
sure on the tire and loading information label
1
or
on the tire inflation pressure label on the driver's
door B-pillar (e page 174).

tion lock.

pears in the multifunction display
