Indication of a flat tire

The warning lamp lights up red. A
message appears on the Control Dis-
play. In addition, an acoustic signal

sounds. There is a flat tire or extensive inflation
pressure loss.
If you have deactivated DSC, it will be activated
automatically.

Cautiously reduce speed to below 50 mph/
80 km/h. Avoid sudden braking and steer-
ing maneuvers. Do not exceed a speed of
50 mph/80 km/h.
In case of further air loss of the defective
wheel, its position will be indicated to you
on the Control Display.

If the vehicle is not equipped with run-
flat tires as intended at the factory,

refer to page

220

, do not continue driving.

Continuing to drive with a flat tire could
cause severe accidents.

At the next opportunity, check the air pres-
sure in all four tires.

If the tire inflation pressure in all four
tires is correct, the Flat Tire Monitor

may not have been initialized. The system
must then be initialized.

In the event of complete tire pressure loss,
0 psi/0 kPa, you can estimate the possible
distance for continued driving on the basis
of the following guide values:

With a light load:
1 to 2 persons without luggage:
approx. 155 miles/250 km

With a medium load:
2 persons, cargo bay full, or
4 persons without luggage:
approx. 94 miles/150 km

With a full load:
4 or more persons, cargo bay full:
approx. 30 miles/50 km

Drive reservedly and do not exceed a
speed of 50 mph/80 km/h. In the event of

pressure loss, vehicle handling changes. This
includes reduced tracking stability in braking,
extended braking distance and altered natural
steering characteristics.
If unusual vibrations or loud noises occur while
the vehicle is being driven, this can indicate final
failure of the damaged tire. Reduce speed and
stop at a suitable location as soon as possible,
otherwise pieces of the tire could become
detached and cause an accident. Do not con-
tinue driving, but instead contact the BMW
Sports Activity Vehicle Center.
