Dismounting/Mounting Procedures: Notes

CAUTION: The tire should be dismounted from the wheel using the tire changer manufacturer's instructions. Use the following information to avoid damage during the dismounting/mounting procedures.
CAUTION: When tires are replaced, the sensors and valves must not be detached or exchanged. Only the valve core needs to be replaced. DO NOT replace the valve and wheel electronics unless necessary.
CAUTION: Mixed installation of SST (PAX system)and standard tires is not permitted. A standard tire can only be installed in exceptional cases for a short time. The driver must be explicitly informed of the exceptional nature of this installation and that the run-flat characteristics no longer apply.
NOTE: Tire pressure is also dependent on temperature of the tire. For every 18°F (10°C) increase in tire temperature, tire pressure increases about 1.5 psi (10 kPa). Tire pressure should only be adjusted when tires are cold (about the same as ambient air temperature).
NOTE: Whenever tire pressure is adjusted, the adjusted pressure has to be stored again. If tire or tire pressure sensor was changed, the TPMS must be initialized. See RESET PROCEDURES .
