Running reset
Reset the TPM after adjusting the tyre inflation
pressure to a new value and after a tyre or
wheel change.
On the Control Display and on the vehicle:
1.
"Vehicle information"
2.
"Vehicle status"
3.
"Perform reset"
4.
Start the engine – do not drive off.
5.
Resetting tyre inflation pressure: "Perform
reset".
6.
Drive off.
The wheels are shown grey and the status ap‐
pears on the display.
After driving for a short time over 30 km/h,
19 mph the set tyre inflation pressures are ac‐
cepted as target values. The reset is run auto‐
matically during the journey.
The progress of the reset is shown.
After a successfully concluded reset, the
wheels are shown in green on the Control Dis‐
play and "Tyre Pressure Monitor (RDC)
active." is shown.
You can interrupt your journey at any time. Re‐
set resumes automatically when you continue
your journey.
Message if tyre inflation pressure is
low
The yellow warning lamp is illuminated.
A Check Control message is shown.
There is a flat tyre or substantial
loss of tyre pressure.
No reset has been done to the system.
Consequently, the system warns of the
tyre pressures of the last reset.
1.
Reduce your speed and carefully stop the
vehicle. Avoid violent or sudden braking
and steering manoeuvres.
2.
Check whether the vehicle is equipped
with standard tyres or run-flat tyres.

Security
The symbol identifying run-flat tyres, see
page 203, is the circle with the letters RSC
on the tyre side wall.
WARNING
A damaged normal tyre with inadequate
tyre inflation pressure or no tyre inflation pres‐
sure at all impairs driving properties, for exam‐
ple steering and braking. Tyres with run-flat
properties allow a limited level of stability to be
maintained. Danger of accidents. Do not con‐
tinue to drive unless the vehicle is equipped
with run-flat tyres. Comply with the notes on
run-flat tyres and continuing to drive with
these tyres.◀
When there is a message that the tyre inflation
pressure is low, the Dynamic Stability Control
DSC may be switched on.
What to do in the event of a flat tyre
Standard tyres
1.
Identify the damaged tyre.
Do this by checking the air pressure in all
four tyres.
The tyre inflation pressure display of the
Mobility System can be used for this.
If all four tyres are inflated to the correct
pressures, the Tyre Pressure Monitor
might not have been initialised. In this case
initialise the system.
If it is not possible to identify, contact a
Service Partner or a qualified specialist
workshop.
2.
Fix the puncture with the Mobility System.
The use of tyre sealant, for example the Mobi‐
lity System, can damage the TPM wheel elec‐
tronics. If sealant is used, check the electron‐
ics as soon as you get an opportunity and have
them replaced if necessary.
