In addition, a warning tone sounds.

WARNING

Tires with pressure that is too low or too high are subject to the following risks:

  • They may burst, especially when the load or vehicle speed increases.
  • They may wear excessively and/or unevenly, which can significantly reduce their grip.
  • The vehicle's handling, steering and braking behavior may be severely impaired.

There is a risk of an accident.

  • Stop the vehicle without jerking the steering wheel or braking abruptly. Take traffic conditions into account.
  • Check the tires. In case of a flat tire, see.
  • Check the tire pressure and, if necessary, restore the correct pressure.
  • Restart the tire pressure loss warning system once the correct pressure has been restored.
