warning system or with an active tire pressure

monitor.

If the pressure loss warning message

appears in the multifunction display:

R

Observe the instructions in the display

messages (Y page 280).

R

Check the tire for damage.

If driving on, observe the following notes.

The maximum driving distance is

approximately 50 miles (80 km) when the

vehicle is partially laden and approximately

18 miles (30 km) when the vehicle is fully

laden.

In addition to the vehicle load, the driving

distance possible depends upon:

R

speed

R

road condition

R

outside temperature

The driving distance possible in run-flat mode

may be reduced by extreme driving

conditions/maneuvers, or it can be increased

through a moderate style of driving.

The maximum permissible distance which

can be driven in run-flat mode is counted from

the moment the tire pressure loss warning

appears in the multifunction display.

You must not exceed a maximum speed of

50 mph (80 km/h).

i When replacing one or all tires, make sure

that you use only tires:

R

of the size specified for the vehicle and

R

marked "MOExtended"

If a tire has gone flat and cannot be

replaced with a MOExtended tire, a

standard tire may be used as a temporary

measure. Make sure that you use the

proper size and type (summer or winter

tire).

i

Vehicles equipped with MOExtended tires

are not equipped with a TIREFIT kit at the

factory. It is therefore recommended that

you additionally equip your vehicle with a

TIREFIT kit if you mount tires that do not

feature run-flat properties, e.g. winter tires.

A TIREFIT kit may be obtained from a

qualified specialist workshop.
