The maximum distance in emergency
mode depends on the vehicle’s load. It is
30 miles (50 km) if the vehicle is partially
loaded and 18 miles (30 km) if the vehicle is
fully loaded.
The point at which the maximum driving distance
begins in emergency mode is when the warning
message appears in the multifunction display
indicating that there is a loss of tire inflation
pressure.
Do not exceed the maximum speed of
50 mph (80 km/h).
