TPM checks the tire inflation pressure in the 
four mounted tires. The system reports when 
the tire inflation pressure has dropped consid-
erably in one or several tires.

In order to assure the reliable reporting of a flat 
tire, the system must be reset at the correct tire 
inflation pressure.
Always use wheels with TPM electronics, oth-
erwise fault-free operation of the system is not 
ensured.

Reset the system again after each correc-
tion of the tire inflation pressure and after 

every tire or wheel change.
