MAINTENANCE LAMP RESET PROCEDURES FOR 2004 MERCEDES-BENZ SL600 AUTOMOBILES
Mercedes-Benz -> Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Warning Indicator -> 2003-09 SL Class -> Description -> Relearn -> Reset
Vehicle: 2004 MERCEDES-BENZ SL600 5.5 V12 GAS
Description
While the vehicle is being driven, the Run Flat Indicator monitors the set tire inflation pressures by evaluating each wheels rotational speed. This allows the system to detect a significant loss of pressure in a tire.
If a wheel's rotational speed changes due to falling tire inflation pressure, you will see a corresponding warning message in the multifunction display.
The Run Flat Indicator may function in a restricted manner or with a delay if: snow chains are mounted to the vehicle; winter road conditions prevail; you are driving on a loose surface (e.g. sand or gra...
