Safety
T y r e u n d e r - i n fl a t i o n d e t e c t i o n
System which automatically checks the pressure of the tyres while driving.
Sensors fitted in each valve trigger a warning in the event of malfunction (speed above 12 mph (20 km/h)). The spare wheel is not fitted with a sensor.
All repairs and changing of tyres on a wheel fitted with this system must be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. If, when changing a tyre, you install a wheel which is not detected by your vehicle (example: fitting of snow tyres), you must have the system reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
This message is also displayed when
one of the wheels is away from the vehicle (being repaired) or when one or more wheels without a sensor are fitted.
The tyre under-inflation detection system is an aid to driving which does not replace the need for the driver to be vigilant or to drive responsibly.
This system does not avoid the need to have the tyre pressures checked regularly (refer to "Identification markings") to ensure that the optimum dynamic per formance of the vehicle is maintained and prevent premature wear of the tyres, par ticularly in arduous driving conditions (heavy load, high
speed). The tyre pressures must be checked cold, at least once a month. Remember
to check the pressure of the spare wheel. The tyre under-inflation detection system may experience temporary inter ference due to electromagnetic signals on a frequency close to that used by the system.
A message appears in the instrument panel screen, accompanied by an audible signal, to identify the wheel concerned.
U n d e r - i n fl a t e d t y r e
This warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp come on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the instrument panel screen identifying the wheel concerned. Stop immediately, avoiding any sudden movement of the steering wheel and the brakes. Change the damaged wheel (punctured or very deflated tyre), and have the tyre pressure checked as soon as possible.
Puncture
A message appears in the instrument panel screen, accompanied by an audible signal, to identify the wheel or wheels which are not detected or to indicate a fault in the system. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to replace the faulty sensor(s).
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
Check the tyre pressures as soon as possible. This check must be carried out when the tyres are cold.

Practical information
A. "Sealant" or "Air" position selector. B. On "I" /off "O" switch. C. Deflation button. D. Pressure gauge (in bar or p.s.i.). E. Compar tment housing: - a cable with adaptor for 12 V socket, - various inflation adaptors for accessories, such as balls, bicycle tyres...
Description of the kit
F. Sealant car tridge. G. White pipe with cap for repair. H. Black pipe for inflation. I. Speed limit sticker.
The speed limit sticker I must be affixed to the vehicle's steering wheel to remind you that a wheel is in temporary use. Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) when driving with a tyre repaired using this type of kit.

Practical information
pressure is not attained, this indicates that the tyre is not repairable; contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop for assistance.
Switch on the compressor by moving the switch B to position "I" until the tyre pressure reaches 2.0 bars. The sealant is injected into the tyre under pressure; do not disconnect the pipe from the valve during this operation (risk of
splashing).
Remove the kit and screw the cap back on the white pipe. Take care to avoid staining your vehicle with traces of fluid. Keep the kit to hand. Drive immediately for approximately three miles (five kilometres), at reduced speed
(between 15 and 35 mph [20 and 60 km/h]), to plug the puncture. Stop to check the repair and the tyre
pressure using the kit. T y r e u n d e r - i n fl a t i o n d e t e c t i o n
If the vehicle is fitted with tyre under-inflation detection, the under-inflation warning lamp will remain on after the wheel has been repaired until the system is reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Technical data
I d e n t i fi c a t i o n m a r k i n g s
A. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) under the bonnet.
This number is engraved on the bodywork near the damper suppor t.
The tyre pressures must be checked when the tyres are cold, at least once a month.
If the tyre pressures are too low, this increases fuel consumption. B. Vehicle identification Number (VIN) on the windscreen lower crossmember. This number is indicated on a self-adhesive label which is visible through the windscreen.
C. Manufacturer’s label. The VIN is indicated on a self-destroying
label affixed to the door aper ture, on the driver’s side.
D. Tyre/paint label. This label is affixed to the door aper ture, on the driver’s side.
It bears the following information: - the tyre inflation pressures with and without load, - the wheel rim and tyre sizes, - the brands of tyre recommended by the manufacturer, - the inflation pressure of the spare wheel,
- the paint colour code.
