Tyre deflation detection
system
The tyre deflation detection system
continually checks the rotation speed
of all four wheels and warns on low
tyre pressure condition once vehicle
is driving. This is achieved by
comparing tyre rolling circumference
with reference values and further
signals.
If a tyre loses pressure the control
indicator q illuminates, a warning
chime is given and a warning
message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
In this case reduce speed, avoid
sharp cornering and strong braking.
Stop at next safe opportunity and
check tyre pressure.
Control indicator q 3 102.
After adjusting tyre pressure initialise
system to extinguish the control
indicator and restart system.
Caution
Deflation detection system warns
just about low tyre pressure
condition and does not replace
regular tyre maintenance by the
driver.
In case of a system malfunction, the
control indicators q and R appear
at the same time or a message is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre. Set correct tyre pressure and
reinitialise system. If the failure
continues to be displayed, contact a
workshop. The system is inoperable
when ABS or ESC has a malfunction
or a temporary spare wheel is used.
Once the road tyre has been refitted,
check the tyre pressure with cold
tyres and initialise the system.
System initialisation
After tyre pressure correction or
wheel change, the system must be
initialised to learn new circumference
reference values:
Vehicle care
1. Always ensure that all four tyres
have correct tyre pressure
3 283.
2. Apply parking brake.
3. Start the initialisation procedure:
Initialise the deflation detection
system in the vehicle
personalisation 3 109.
4. Reset is confirmed by pop-up
indication.
After initialisation system
automatically calibrates to new tyre
pressures during driving. After longer
drive the system will adopt and
monitor new pressures.
Always check tyre pressure with cold
tyres.
System has to be reinitialised when:
● Tyre pressure has been changed
● Load condition has been
changed
● Wheels have been swapped or
exchanged
The system will not warn
instantaneously on a tyre blow out or
a rapid deflation. This is due to
required calculation time.
