Initializing Tire Defect Indicator (RPA)




36 11 000 - Initializing tire defect indicator (RPA)





Note:
Checking the tire pressure is based on monitoring the speeds of the wheels in relation to each other. A tire puncture is detected and signalled by way of a deviation in specific speed ratios.
The four tires mounted on the vehicle are monitored while the vehicle is moving.
Initialization must be carried out immediately after correction of the tire pressure or changing/replacement of a tire.

Important!
The tire defect indicator does not function when the car is driven with the compact spare wheel.

Please refer to the relevant Owner's Manual for details of the initialization procedure.
