Yellow warning – “
Top off air“
The pressure in the tire is too low by
more than
4 to 7 psi/0.3 to 0.5 bar/30 to 50 kPa
. The
tire pressure warning specifies the affected tire
and the target tire pressure.
f
Fill up with air at the next opportunity.
This tire pressure warning appears:
– for approx. 10 seconds when the vehicle is
stationary and the ignition is switched off
or
– when the ignition is switched on again.
The warning can be acknowledged when the
ignition is switched on.
The tire pressure warning light on the instrument
panel goes out only when the tire pressure has
been corrected
(differential pressure value “
0.0
”).
Red warning –
“
Check tires
”
At speeds
below 100 mph (160 km/h)
:
– The pressure in the tire has dropped
by 20 %
below the required pressure
or
by
more
than 7 psi/0.5 bar/50 kPa
. This significant
pressure loss is a danger to road safety.
At speeds
above 100 mph (160 km/h)
:
– The pressure in the tire has dropped by
more
than 6 psi/0.4 bar/40 kPa
. This significant
pressure loss is a danger to road safety.
f
When the tire pressure warning appears, stop
immediately at a suitable location. Check the
indicated tire for signs of damage. If
necessary, fill in tire sealant and set the
correct tire pressure.
This tire pressure warning also appears when
driving and can be acknowledged.
The tire pressure warning light on the instrument
panel goes out only when the tire pressure has
been corrected
(differential pressure value “
0.0
”).
Speed warning - “Tire pressure Reduce
speed“
At speeds
above 165 mph (270 km/h)
:
– The pressure in the tire has dropped by
more
than 4 psi/0.3 bar/30 kPa
. This pressure
loss is a danger to road safety.
f
When the tire pressure warning appears,
reduce speed to below 165 mph (270 km/h)
until the warning disappears.
When driving at very high speeds, increase the
tire pressure to the required pressure
(differential pressure value “
0.0
”).
