Hi

I have accidentally switched on the flat tyre monitoring and how do i turn off or is it always active due to my confusion.

Thanks

If this is the TPMS warning, y'all need to inflate one or more tires.

Good luck.

You can't "accidentally" turn the flat tyre monitoring system on. It is a safety feature that alerts you when a tyre or any of your tyres inflation falls below a set parameter when the baseline was initiated. If you got the flat tire/tyre warning light...then you need to go into VEHICLE INFO and pull up the screen to see which if not all of your tires needs to be checked out for low inflation.

If you have iDrive...there should be a video that explains it if you go to the owners manual and select the embedded videos. There will also be written text (just like in the physical paperback owners manual) that also explains the system.


FTM Flat Tire Monitor
The concept

The system does not measure the actual inflation
pressure in the tires.
It detects a pressure loss in a tire by comparing
the rotational speeds of the individual wheels
while moving.

In the event of a pressure loss, the diameter and
therefore the rotational speed of the corresponding
wheel change. This is detected and
reported as a flat tire.

Functional requirements
The system must have been initialized when the
tire inflation pressure was correct; otherwise,
reliable signaling of a flat tire is not ensured. Initialize
the system after each correction of the
tire inflation pressure and after every tire or
wheel change.

Status display
The current status of the Flat Tire Monitor can
be displayed on the Control Display, e.g.,
whether or not the FTM is active.
1. "Vehicle Info"
2. "Vehicle status"
3. "Flat Tire Monitor"
The status is displayed.
