Tire Pressure Message

When I turn off the car, the speedo screen says, "Correct Tire Pressure" with picture of the car and numbers by the wheels. I'm not sure if this is a command, as in "Hey! Check your tire pressure!" or if it's just making conversation as in, "Did ya know that the correct tire pressure is...?" I'll get around to looking it up in the manual, but it's more fun to ask the group.

haha, the group.....

I think it just means it's above/below whatever the car has it's memory on.....
you can set the memory to whatever pressure you want to......and the car will tell you if it's off by so many pounds....

but you have to verbally reward your car too

good luck

Probably just making conversation...the merc is a very social brand, you know.

Thanks! Didn't know I had any choice on the numbers! I just thought of an old joke: The "Slow Children Playing" streetsign can be read; "Slow-Children...Playing."
