Maximum speed
If a tyre is damaged you can continue your
journey, but do not exceed a maximum
speed of 80 km/h, 50 mph.
Continuing a journey with a flat tyre
If you continue a journey with a flat tyre:
1.
Avoid violent or sudden braking and
steering manoeuvres.
2.
Do not exceed a speed of 80 km/h,
50 mph.
3.
As soon as there is an opportunity,
check the tyre inflation pressure in all
four tyres.
If all four tyres are inflated to the cor-
rect tyre inflation pressures, the runflat
indicator might not have been initial-
ised. In this case initialise the system.
Possible driving distance with a deflated
tyre
The possible driving distance varies de-
pending on the load and stresses the vehicle
is subjected to, for example speed, road
properties, outside temperature. The driving
distance can be shorter or, if the driving
style is more careful, longer.
If the vehicle is moderately loaded and used
under favourable conditions, it is possible
to travel up to 80 km, 50 miles.
Driving properties with damaged tyres
On a journey with damaged tyres, handling
characteristics change and may result in the
following situations, for example:
–
The vehicle losing traction more quickly.
–
Longer braking distances.
–
Changed self-steering characteristics.
Adapt your driving style. Avoid abrupt
steering or driving over obstacles, for exam-
ple kerbs or potholes.
Final tyre failure
Vibration or loud noises during the journey
may be an indication that the tyre has fi-
nally failed.
Reduce your speed and stop the vehicle.
Parts of the tyre could detach, which could
lead to an accident.
Do not continue driving, but contact a Serv-
ice Partner of the manufacturer or another
qualified Service Partner or a specialist
workshop.
System limits
In the following situations, the system
could be slow to respond or operate incor-
rectly:
–
A natural, even loss of tyre inflation
pressure in all four tyres that occurs
over time is not detected. Consequently,
check the tyre inflation pressure at reg-
ular intervals.
–
No warning can be given in the event of
sudden tyre failure caused by external
factors.
–
If the system has not been initialised.
–
When driving on snow-covered or slip-
pery surfaces.
–
Dynamic driving style: drive wheels slip-
ping, high lateral acceleration.
–
Driving with snow chains.
Intelligent Safety
Principle
Intelligent Safety enables Driver Assistance

The Intelligent Safety Systems can help to
avoid a collision that would otherwise oc-
cur.
