Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren. Operator's Manual.

Checking tire inflation pressure
electronically
The tire inflation pressure monitor only
functions on wheels that are equipped with
the proper electronic sensors. It monitors
the tire inflation pressure, as selected by
the driver, in all four tires. A warning is
issued to alert you to a decrease in tire
inflation pressure in one or more of the
tires.
You can call up the tire inflation pressure
monitoring display using the control
system ( page 137).
i
After you have reactivated the tire inflation
pressure monitor, the current tire
inflation pressures will only be shown
after a few minutes driving time.
During this time you will see the
following message in the multifunction
display:
Tire pressure
displayed only
after driving
a few minutes

Possible differences between the readings
of a tire inflation pressure gauge of
an air hose, e.g. gas station equipment,
and the vehicle’s control system can
occur. The readings issued by the
control system are more precise.
Switch on the ignition ( page 40).
