Start to drive.
The tires are shown in gray and "Resetting 
TPM..." is displayed.
After a few minutes of driving, the set tire infla-
tion pressures in the tires are applied as the set 
values to be monitored. Resetting finishes dur-
ing driving. The tires are shown in green on the 
Control Display.
If a flat tire is detected during resetting 
and applying the tire inflation pressures, 
all tires are shown in yellow on the Control Dis-
play. The message "Tire low!" is displayed.

pressure
The warning lamp lights up yellow. A

Reduce speed and stop the vehicle care-
fully. Avoid sudden braking and steering 
maneuvers.
2.
Check whether your vehicle is equipped 
with standard tires or run-flat tires.
You will recognize run-flat tires by a 
circular symbol containing the letters 
RSC on the side of the tire, refer to

If all four wheels are shown in yellow, iden-
tify the damaged tire on the vehicle.
2.
Replace the damaged wheel or wheels, 
refer to Changing wheels on page
.
In contrast to a compact wheel, a spare wheel is 
equipped with the necessary TPM electronics 
and also monitored after mounting and after 
resetting the system.
Have the tire replaced by a BMW center or a 
workshop informed on handling TPM which 
works according to BMW repair procedures 
with correspondingly trained personnel.
Run-flat tires*
1.
Cautiously reduce speed to below 50 mph/
80 km/h. Avoid severe braking and steering 
maneuvers and do not exceed a speed of 
50 mph/80 km/h.
If the vehicle is not equipped with run-
flat tires, refer to page
, do not 
continue driving. Continuing to drive with a 
flat tire could cause severe accidents.

2.
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. 95 miles/150 km
>
With a full load:
4 or more persons, cargo bay full:
approx. 30 miles/50 km
