36 11 000 Initializing Run Flat Indicator (RPA)
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 21 other vehicles, including the 2017 BMW 550i GT xDrive, 2017 BMW 535i GT xDrive, 2017 BMW 535i GT, 2016 BMW 550i GT xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i GT xDrive.

NOTE:
Checking the tire pressure is based on speed monitoring of the wheels in relation to each other. A tire puncture is detected and signalled by way of a deviation in specific speed ratios.
The four tires mounted on the vehicle are monitored while the vehicle is driving.
Initialization must be carried out in each case immediately after tire pressures have been corrected, after tires/wheels have been exchanged and after repair work to the air spring system.
