Volkswagen Jetta 2011 User Manual

Note
♦ When changing wheels, ensure only Volkswagen approved
wheel/tires combinations with tire pressure given on fuel filler
flap are installed.
♦ If unapproved wheel/tire combinations are installed, these
must have a German Technical Inspection Agency certificate
for the particular vehicle and a second wheel set must be pro‐
grammed using the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester . Refer to
⇒ , page 241 .
♦ An adaptation is also needed if tire pressure deviates from
pressures given on fuel filler flap. Refer to ⇒ , page 241 .
Wheel Sets with Other Specified Tire Pressures
If a vehicle is equipped with tires which have specified pressures
different from those listed on fuel filler flap, these tires (second
wheel set) can also be monitored by the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS).
Specified values for a second wheel set must be entered into the
system using the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester .
The tire pressure monitoring sensors on wheels from 2nd set are
not automatically recognized and learned by the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (as tire pressure monitoring sensor on Volks‐
wagen approved wheel/tire combination set are).
To change to a second wheel set, the following steps must be
carried out:
♦ Read the identification numbers (IDs) on the tire pressure
monitoring sensors before installing.
♦ Switch the TPMS to wheel set 2.
♦ Enter needed specified tire pressures and tire pressure mon‐
itoring sensor IDs in system.
4.3 Assembly Requirements
Warm Up Cold Tires To the Minimum Mounting Temperature
Note
This applies also to ultra high performance tires (height- / width
ration smaller/same 45% and speed rating symbol larger than/
same as V).
WARNING
The minimum mounting temperature for a tire may not be be‐
low 15 °C (59 °F) or above 30 °C (86 °F) in the center of the
tire.
• For injury-free mounting, the upper sidewall and the upper
bead inside must be minimum 15 °C (59 °F).
• The internal temperature is called the core temperature.
• Rubber is a poor heat conductor. For this reason, a cold tire
must exposed to a temperature controlled environment until
the inner rubber layers have warmed up to at least 15 °C (59
°F).
