Tire Pressure Monitor Tpm - Mini HARDTOP 2 DOOR 2018 Owner's Manual

The calibration procedure is completed
when the Check Control message disap-
pears.
If the message continues to be displayed,
repeat the calibration.
If the message does not disappear after a re-
peat calibration, have the system checked
as soon as possible.

Tire Pressure Monitor TPM

Concept
The system monitors tire inflation pressure
in the four mounted tires. The system warns
you if there is a significant loss of pressure
in one or more tires.
General information
Sensors in the tire valves measure the tire
inflation pressure and, depending on the
model, the tire temperature.
With use of the system follow further infor-
mation found under Tire inflation pressure,
refer to page 244.
Functional requirements
The following conditions must be met for
the system; otherwise, reliable flagging of a
loss of tire inflation pressure is not assured:
– After a tire or wheel replacement, a re-
set was performed with the correct tire
inflation pressure.
– After the tire inflation pressure was ad-
justed to a new value, a reset was per-
formed.
– Wheels with TPM wheel electronics.

System is active and will issue a warning re-
lated to the tire inflation pressures stored
during the last reset.
One to four yellow wheels
A flat tire or major drop in the tire inflation
pressure has occurred in the indicated tires.
Gray wheels
It may not be possible to identify tire infla-
tion pressure losses.
Possible causes:
– Malfunction.
– The system is being reset.
Additonal information
The status control display additionally
shows the current tire inflation pressures. It
shows the actual values read; they may vary
depending on driving style or weather con-
