Messages: for tyres without special
approval
General
When a low tyre pressure is indicated, the Dy-
namic Stability Control may be turned on.
Safety information
WARNING
A damaged standard tyre with too little or no
tyre inflation pressure impairs driving charac-
teristics, for example steering and braking.
Tyres with run-flat capabilities allow a limited
level of stability to be maintained. There is a
risk of accident. Do not continue driving if the
vehicle is fitted with standard tyres. Comply
with the notes on run-flat tyres and continu-
ing driving with these tyres.
If a tyre inflation pressure check is
required
Message
An icon with a Check Control message is
shown on the control display.
Icon Possible cause
The tyre was not inflated properly, for
example insufficient air was added or
there was a natural, even tyre pres-
sure loss.
Measure
Check the tyre inflation pressure and adjust as
necessary.
If the tyre inflation pressure is too low
Message
A yellow warning light is illuminated in
the instrument cluster.
