Restarting the TPMS
Warning!
It is the driver's responsibility to calibrate
the TPMS on the recommended cold infla-
tion pressure. Underinflated tires affect the
ability to steer or brake the vehicle. You
might loose control over the vehicle.

The TPMS must be restarted 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.
Using the Tire and Loading Information
placard on the driver's door B-pillar
( page 334) or, if available, the
supplemental tire inflation pressure
information on the inside of the fuel
filler flap ( page 322), make sure the
tire inflation pressure of all four tires is
correct.

Restart the TPMS after adjusting the tire in-
flation pressure to the inflation pressure recom-
mended for the vehicle operating condition. Tire
G
pressure should only be adjusted on cold tires.
Observe the recommended tire inflation pres-
sure on the Tire and Loading Information placard
on the driver's door B-pillar ( page 334). Some
vehicles may have supplemental tire inflation
pressure information for driving at high speeds
( page 340) or for vehicle loads less than the
maximum loaded vehicle condition
( page 334). If such information is provided, it
can be found on the inside of the fuel filler flap.
