but not explicitly mentioned on the label may
be different. Please obtain adequate inflation
pressures in accordance with the tyre manu-
facturer's specifications from your tyre dealer.
On the control display
The current tyre inflation pressures and the
specified tyre inflation pressures for the instal-
led tyres can be displayed on the control dis-
play.
To ensure that they are displayed correctly, the
tyre sizes must be stored in the system and
must have been set for the fitted tyres.
The current tyre inflation pressure value is
shown on each tyre.
The specified tyre inflation pressure value is
located towards the bottom of the control dis-
play.
Checking the tyre inflation pressure
General
Tyres heat up while driving. The tyre inflation
pressure increases with the temperature of the
tyre.
Tyres have a natural, uniform tyre pressure
loss.
The pressures displayed by some pressure
gauges may be up to 0.1 bar too low.
Checking using tyre inflation pressure
information on the body pillar
1. Determine the specified tyre inflation pres-
sures for the tyres installed on the vehicle.
2. Check the tyre inflation pressure in all four
tyres, using a pressure gauge, for example.
3. Correct the tyre inflation pressure if the cur-
rent tyre inflation pressure deviates from
the specified tyre inflation pressure.
4. Check whether all valve caps are screwed
onto the tyre valves.

Wheels and tyres
The tyre inflation pressure information on the
tyre pressure label on the body pillar only re-
lates to cold tyres or tyres at the same temper-
ature as the ambient temperature.
Only check the tyre inflation pressures when
the tyres are cold, i.e.:
▷ If the vehicle has been driven a distance of
no more than 2 km, 1.25 miles.
▷ If the vehicle has not moved again for at
least 2 hours after a journey.
If equipped with an emergency tyre: check the
tyre inflation pressure of the emergency wheel
in the luggage compartment regularly and cor-
rect if necessary.
Checking using the tyre inflation
pressure information on the control
display
1. "MENU"
2. "Vehicle apps"
3. "Vehicle status"
4. "Tyre Pressure Monitor"
5. Check if the current tyre inflation pressures
match the specified tyre pressure value.
6. Correct the tyre inflation pressure if the cur-
rent tyre inflation pressure deviates from
the specified tyre inflation pressure.
The current tyre inflation pressure display may
be restricted when the vehicle is stationary.
The tyre inflation pressure is updated after a
short drive.
After adjusting the tyre inflation
pressure
If equipped with a Tyre Pressure Monitor, tyre
inflation pressure corrections are applied auto-
matically. Make sure that the tyre settings are
correct. For tyres that are not listed in the tyre
inflation pressure information on the control
display, reset the Tyre Pressure Monitor.
If equipped with a Flat Tyre Monitor, reinitialize
the Flat Tyre Monitor.
