Calibrating Tire Monitor
In order for Tire Monitor to work correctly, tire pressure reference values must be set (the system must be calibrated). This must be done each time wheels or tire pressures are changed.
Calibration
Switch off the engine.
Inflate the tires to the desired pressure (consult tire pressure placard located on the driver's side B-pillar (the structural member at the side of the vehicle).
Start the engine but keep the vehicle at a standstill.
Press the MY CAR button on the center console control panel and press OK/MENU.
Select Tire monitor.
Select Start calibration and press OK/MENU.
Press OK/MENU again after all of the tires have been checked and reinflated.
Drive away.
The calibration process will begin when the vehicle reaches a speed of approximately 22 mph (35 km/h). Calibration will be interrupted if the engine is switched off but will resume automatically in the background when the vehicle is driven again. The system will not give any confirmation when calibration is finished.
When driving with heavy loads or at sustained highway speeds, the tire pressure should be adjusted to the recommended inflation pressures according to the tire inflation pressure placard located on the driver's side B-pillar (the structural member at the side of the vehicle, at the rear of the driver's door opening) or to the tire inflation pressure table in the owner's information.
After adjusting inflation pressure, repeat steps 1-5 above.
Note
Always remember to calibrate Tire Monitor when the wheels have been changed or the tire pressure has been corrected according to tire pressure placard or tire pressure table. If correct reference values have not been set, the system cannot issue low tire pressure alerts correctly.
