Calibrating Tire Monitor
In order for Tire Monitor to work correctly, tire
pressure reference values must be set. This
must be done each time wheels or tire pressures
are changed.
Calibration
1. Switch off the engine.
2. Inflate the tires to the desired pressure (con-
sult tire pressure placard located on the driv-
er's side B-pillar (the structural member at
the side of the vehicle) and put the ignition in
mode II, see Ignition modes (p. 74).
3.
Press the MY CAR button on the center
console control panel and select
Settings
Car settings Tire monitoring.
4.
Press OK/MENU, select
Calibrate tire
pressure and press OK/MENU again after
all of the tires have been checked and rein-
flated.
5. Drive away.
> The calibration process will be completed
while driving and will be interrupted if the
vehicle is parked and the engine is
switched off. Calibration continues auto-
matically when driving resumes. The sys-
tem will not give any confirmation when
calibration is finished although it will state
if calibration fails.
When driving with heavy loads or at sustained
highway speeds, the tire pressure should be
adjusted to the recommended inflation pressures
according to the tire inflation pressure placard
located on the driver's side B-pillar (the structural
member at the side of the vehicle, at the rear of
the driver's door opening) or to the tire inflation
pressure table in the owner's information.
After adjusting inflation pressure, repeat steps
1-5 above.
NOTE
Always remember to calibrate Tire Monitor
when the wheels have been changed or the
tire pressure has been corrected according to
tire pressure placard or tire pressure table. If
correct reference values have not been set,
the system cannot issue low tire pressure
alerts correctly.
