The specified tire pressure is the last tire pres-
sure that was stored

Note that the tire pressure also depends on the
temperature
of t he t ire . Every 10 °C increase in
tire temperature
results in the tire pressure in-
creasing by approximate ly 0 . 1 bar. The tire pres-
sure increases as the eng ine becomes warmer
while driving.

Storing new tire pressures
Correctly stored tire pressure specifications are
necessary for reliable tire pressure monitoring.
"' Check the tire pressures in all wheels .
..
"' Correct the tire pressure if necessa ry. Refer to
the tire pressure lab el for the re commended
t ire pressure for your vehicle

fig. 193 .
Only correct the pressure in tires
whose temperature
is approximately the same
as the ambient temperature.
If the tempera-
ture of the tire is higher than ambient tempera-
ture, the tire pressure must be increased ap-
proximately 0 .2 bar above the value on the
sticker .
"' Switch the ignition on .
"' Select:
!CAR !
function button>
Car systems>
Tire pressure monitor > Store tire pressures.
After storing, the t ire pressure monitoring sys-
tem measures the current tire pressures and
stores them as the new specified pressures .
"' If the changed tire pressures are not displayed
in the Infotainment system, drive the vehicle
for approximately 10 minutes so that the sen-
sor signal from the wheels is received again .
During this adaptation phase, ·· .·· is displayed
for the pressure and temperature
and the tire
pressure monitoring system is only partially
available .
It
only prov ides a warning if one or
more tire pressures is below the minimum per-
mitted spec ified pressu re. If this is the case, the
[IJ
indic ator light appea rs with a message .
