WHEELS AND TYRES
Tyre monitoring (TM)*1
The TM (Tyre Monitor) system senses the rota-
tion speed of the tyres in order to determine
whether they have the correct tyre pressure.
Jack*
Use the jack to raise the car when changing a
wheel.
First aid kit*
The first aid box contains first aid equipment.
Only use the original jack when fitting a spare
wheel or when changing between summer and
winter wheels. The jack's thread must always be
well greased.
System description
If the tyre pressure is too low, the tyre's diameter
is changed and, as a result, so is its rotation
speed. By comparing the tyres with each other
the system can determine whether one or more
tyres have pressure that is too low.
IMPORTANT
The tools and jack* must be stored in the
intended location in the car's cargo area
when not in use.
The system does not replace normal tyre mainte-
nance.

NOTE
If the tyre pressure is too low then an indicator
A case containing first aid equipment is located
on the left-hand side of the cargo area.
The normal car jack is only designed for occa-
sional, short-term use, such as when chang-
ing a wheel after a puncture, changing to win-
ter/summer wheels, etc. Only the jack for the
specific car model may be used to raise the
car. If the car is to be jacked up more often, or
for a longer time than is required just to
change a wheel, use of a garage jack is rec-
ommended. In this instance, follow the
instructions for use that come with the equip-
ment.
