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.

Safety information
Warning
The vehicle handles differently when a run-flat
tire has insufficient or no tire pressure; for in‐
stance, reduced lane stability when braking,
braking distances are longer and the self-steer‐
ing properties will change. There is a risk of ac‐
cident. Drive moderately and do not exceed a
speed of 50 mph/80 km/h.
Warning
Heavy trailers can start swinging when continu‐
ing to drive with a flat tire. There may be a risk
of accident or risk of damage to property. Do
not exceed a speed of 35 mph/60 km/h when
driving with a trailer and a flat tire. Immediately
brake in the case of swinging. Apply necessary
steering corrections as carefully as possible.
Maximum speed
You may continue driving with a damaged tire at
speeds up to 50 mph/80 km/h.
Continued driving with a flat tire
Follow the following when continuing to drive
with a damaged tire:
1.
Avoid sudden braking and steering maneu‐
vers.
2.
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph/80 km/h.
3.
Check the tire inflation pressure in all four
tires at the next opportunity.
When the tire inflation pressure in all four tires
is correct, the Flat Tire Monitor may not have
been initialized. In this case, initialize the sys‐
tem.
