Messages
General
Dynamic Stability Control DSC will be acti-
vated if necessary as soon as a message for
low tyre inflation pressure appears.
Safety notes
WARNING
A damaged normal tyre with too little or
no tyre inflation pressure impairs driving
properties, for example steering and brak-
ing. Tyres with run-flat properties allow a
limited level of stability to be maintained.
There is a danger of accidents. Do not con-
tinue driving if the vehicle is fitted with
normal tyres. Comply with the notes on
run-flat tyres and continuing to drive with
these tyres.
