This also applies to safety-related functions and sys‐ tems. ▷ Keep at a distance from the airbags.
Safety ▷ Never modify either the individual compo‐ nents or the wiring in the airbag system. This also applies to steering wheel covers, the dashboard, the seats, the roof pillars and the sides of the headliner.◀ Even when all instructions are followed closely, injury from contact with the airbags cannot be ruled out in certain situations. The ignition and inflation noise may lead to short-term and, in most cases, temporary hear‐ ing impairment in sensitive individuals.
Controls Safety Indicator lamp for the front passenger airbags The indicator lamp for the front passenger air‐ bags indicates the operating state of the front passenger airbags. The lamp indicates whether the airbags are ac‐ tivated or deactivated. ▷ The indicator lamp lights up when a child in a child re‐ straint fixing system in‐ tended for the purpose is properly detected on the seat. The airbags on the front passenger side are not acti‐ vated.
Safety Do not obstruct the area of movement Always keep the area of movement of the rollover protection system clear. In light acci‐ dents, you are protected by the fastened safety belt and, depending on the severity of the acci‐ dent, the belt tightener and the multi-level air bag restraint system.◀ Lowering Have the service center check the rollover pro‐ tection system after it is deployed unexpect‐ edly.
Controls Safety Indication of a flat tire 3. "Flat Tire Monitor" The warning lamps come on in yellow and red. A message appears on the Control Display. In addition, a signal sounds. There is a flat tire or a major loss in tire inflation pressure. 1. Reduce your speed and stop cautiously. Avoid sudden braking and steering maneu‐ vers. The status is displayed. 2. Check whether the vehicle is fitted with regular tires or run-flat tires.
Safety Run-flat tires You can continue driving with a damaged tire at speeds up to 50 mph/80 km/h. Continued driving with a flat tire If 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. At the next opportunity, check the inflation pressure in all four tires. If the tire inflation pressure in all four tires is correct, the Flat Tire Monitor may not have been initialized. In this case, initialize the system.
Controls Safety The system is inactive and cannot indicate a flat tire: ▷ If a wheel without TPM electronics is mounted, e.g., compact wheel. ▷ For a mounted wheel without TPM elec‐ tronics. All wheels are yellow ▷ A flat tire or major drop in inflation pressure in several tires. ▷ The system was not reset after a wheel change and thus issues a warning based on the inflation pressures initialized last. ▷ When the TPM is disturbed by other sys‐ tems or devices with the same radio fre‐ quency.
Safety completed automatically as you drive. On the Control Display, the tires are shown in green and "Status: TPM active" is displayed again. The trip can be interrupted at any time. If you drive away again, the process resumes auto‐ matically. If a flat tire is detected while the system is re‐ setting, all tires on the Control Display are dis‐ played in yellow. The message "Low tire!" is shown. Low tire pressure message The warning lamps come on in yellow and red.
Controls Safety For a vehicle containing an average load, the possible driving distance is ap‐ prox. 50 miles/80 km. When the vehicle is driven with a damaged tire, its handling characteristics change, e.g., re‐ duced lane stability during braking, a longer braking distance, and altered self-steering properties. Adjust your driving style accord‐ ingly. Avoid abrupt steering maneuvers or driv‐ ing over obstacles, e. g., curbs, potholes, etc.
Safety pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.). Speed limit As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pres‐ sure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pres‐ sure.
