For detailed information on the tyre pressure monitor (TPM), refer

to ⇒ Self-study programme  No.  347 ; Tyre Pressure Monitoring

Systems .
The tyre pressure monitor system includes wheel electronics

mounted on each wheel.
At regular intervals, the wheel electronics transmit data which the

central locking and anti-theft alarm system aerial receives and

forwards to the tyre pressure monitor control unit -J502- .
This control unit is integrated with its own diagnostic address into

the convenience system central control unit -J393- .
The tyre pressure specifications (monitoring air pressures) are set

in the control unit as factory defaults.
The pressures, noted on the tank flap sticker, are valid for a set

of wheels with the Volkswagen-approved tyres.
The nominal tyre pressures for this set of wheels are specified for

the partially and fully laden vehicle and must not be changed.
The driver can switch between partial and full load, poll the status

and switch the TPM system on or off via a 

SET

 button -2- in the

centre console.
