Tire pressure monitor system functional
General information
The tire pressure monitor assists the driver when checking the tire inflation pressure and thus serves active safety.
The Tire pressure monitor monitors the air pressure in the individual tires. A previously stored tire pressure is used as a comparative value. In the event
of a relevant pressure loss the driver is warned via the tire pressure monitor warning lamp. The tire pressure measuring range extends from p = 0 and 5.5
bar.
The tire pressure monitor is made up of the following component functions:
^
Tire pressure sensing
^
Warning display

Manual restart
Tire pressure sensing
The TPM [RDK] control unit is permanently operational. Each time the CAN wakes-up the TPM [RDK] control unit performs a re-initialization. While
driving, the TPM [RDK] system continuously monitors the tire pressure of all rotating wheels (with circuit 15 Off for a further t = 19 min). With new
wheels or a parking time in excess of t > 19 min, the individual wheel detection and axle assignment must be completed first via the TPM wheel sensors.
The TPM wheel sensors transmit data telegrams every t = 60 s while driving.
These data telegrams contain the pressure, tire pressure temperature, individual serial number and status information (manufacturer, direction of rotation,
operating mode etc.). The data are conveyed via two-way radio to the TPM [RDK] control unit. In addition the TPM [RDK] control unit takes into
account the outside temperature and the vehicle speed for the tire pressure determination. These data are provided via CAN from the instrument cluster.
