Tire Pressure Control (RDC)*
This system regularly checks tire pres-
sures and monitors all four tires even
while driving, so you don't have to.
Behind the valve stem in every wheel,
there is an extended-life electronic chip
that has a pressure sensor, a transmit-
ter and a battery. The pressure is mea-
sured in extremely short time intervals
and then transmitted by a radio signal.
If an irregularity is detected, the trans-
mission rate is increased.

Near every wheel there is an antenna in
the body that receives the signals from
all four wheels. A central electronics
system evaluates the quadruple signals
and forwards any changes. The RDC
plays an important part in driving safety.
