Tyre pressure monitor ?

Hi,
When I call up "tyre pressures" under the service menu it reads" run flat indicator active, OK to cancel" ,that's all, no pressures displayed, according to the handbook and digital handbook it should display the pressures.
I have Continental Cross Contacts NOT runflats. I have a spacesaver spare.
It's a 2014 350 AMG Sport.
Should it display the pressures or am I missing something?
Thanks

You got to drive it a 1-2 miles before it displays any tire pressure.

I have the same problem in my GL450 which I've posted about but no replies as yet. It doesn't matter how long I've driven, I still get this screen when I select Tire Pressure in the service menu, I emailed my local MB service rep who has no answer. I saw in another post that there's a module under the car that might need to be replaced. Hopefully someone who has solved this problem will respond. BTW when I select Tire Pressure in my wife's '14 ML350, I see the pressure in each tire.

Drove 10 miles,still not showing pressures, just "run flat active".
Maybe Uk models don't have it? Anyone in UK with a 12 to 15 350 AMG Sport know how to enable it?
Also don't have outside temp. displayed.
Thanks

In Canada we have the MB runflat setup.... By that I mean you adjust your tire pressures and then reset in service menu(this will set a new memory of the circumference of the tires as soon as the tires roll a couple of rotations). If a tire drops 3>4 lbs, tire circumference changes, and an alert will display on the dash! There are no single displays of PSI. Personally, the setup works well for myself. Sometimes going from a very cold climate to a very hot climate may signal the alert.
Note: use your suggested pressures listed on the gas fill flap and not the ones listed on the drivers door sill! Many get that wrong..... only in Canada, eh!
Tires are not run-flat tire, rather reg Continentals' or Michelin's, others will vary....
