inflation pressure impacts handling, such as
steering and braking response. Run-flat tires
can maintain limited stability. There is a risk of
accident. Do not continue driving if the vehicle
is equipped with normal tires. Follow the infor‐
mation on run-flat tires and continued driving
with these tires.

vers.

Actions in the event of a flat tire
Normal tires
1.
Identify the damaged tire.
To do this, check the tire pressure in all four
tires, for instance using the tire pressure dis‐
play of a flat tire kit.
When the tire inflation pressure in all four tires
is correct, the Flat Tire Monitor FTM may not
have been initialized. In this case, initialize the
system.
If identification of flat tire damage is not pos‐
sible, please contact a dealer's service center
or another qualified service center or repair
shop.
2.
Repair the flat tire, e.g., with a flat tire kit or by
changing the wheel.
