TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM - T.P.M.S.
(where provided)
The car is fitted with the Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System (T.P.M.S.). This system consists of a radio-
frequency sensor, installed on each wheel (on the
rim inside the tyre) that sends pressure information
to the control unit.
IMPORTANT System control unit monitors the
pressure of the four car tyres but not the space-
saver spare wheel. It is therefore recommended to
always check also the space-saver spare wheel
pressure.IMPORTANT Since the system only indicates
pressure values lower than the prescribed ones (see
paragraph "Inflation pressures" in section
"Technical Specifications"), pay the utmost
attention when checking or inflating tyres.
Excessive pressure impairs road holding, increases
suspension and wheel stress and causes abnormal
tyre wear.
IMPORTANT Tyre pressure should be checked with
tyres rested and cold. Should it become necessary
for whatever reason to check pressure with hot
tyres, do not reduce pressure although it is higher
than the prescribed value but repeat the check when
tyres are cold.
WARNING
The presence of the T.P.M.S. system does not exempt the driver from checking tyre
and space-saver spare wheel pressure at regular intervals (see paragraph
"Wheels" in section "Technical specification").

❒Avoid overloading the vehicle when travelling:
this may cause serious damage to the wheels and
tyres;
❒If a tyre is punctured, stop immediately and
change it to avoid damage to the tyre, the rim,
suspensions and steering system;
❒Tyres age even if they are not used much. Cracks
in the tread rubber are a sign of ageing. In any
case, if the tyres have been on the car for over 6
years, they should be checked by specialised
personnel, to see if they can still be used.
Also remember to check the spare wheel;
❒In the case of replacement, always fit new tyres,
avoiding those of dubious origin;
❒If a tyre is changed, also change the inflation
valve;
❒To allow even wear between the front and rear
tyres, it is advisable to change them over every
10-15 thousand kilometres, keeping them on the
same side of the car so as to not reverse the
direction of rotation.

WARNINGIf the pressure is too low the tyre overheats and this can cause it serious damage.
WARNINGRemember that road holding depends also on the correct tyre inflating pressure.
WARNINGDo not cross switch the tyres, moving them from the right of the car to the left and
vice versa.
Never submit alloy rims to repainting treatments requiring to use temperatures
exceeding 150°C since the mechanical properties of the wheels could be impaired.
