Tyre pressure monitor
TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR
If the vehicle is equipped with the func-
tion, this system monitors the tyre pres-
sure.
Operating principle
Each wheel (except for the emergency
spare wheel) has a sensor in the infla-
tion valve which periodically measures
the tyre pressure.
The system informs the driver that the
tyres are sufficiently inflated and warns
if they are underinflated or if there is a
leak.
This function is an addi -
tional driving aid.
However, the function does
not take the place of the
driver. It cannot, therefore, under
any circumstances replace the vig -
ilance or the responsibility of the
driver.
Check the tyre pressures, including
the emergency spare wheel, once a
month.
The tyre pressures can be adjusted
when cold (refer to the information on
“Tyre pressure” for the values).
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, the normal
pressures must be increased by 0.2 to
0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR
Fitting tyres(replacing tyres or fitting winter
tyres)
Since replacing tyres requires special
precautions, we advise you to contact
your approved dealer.
Reading the tyre pressure on the in-
strument panel (if fitted to the vehicle).
After the vehicle’s tyre pressures have
been checked, the warning messages
on the instrument panel and/or the
values read on the trip computer and
warning system are updated once you
exceed 15 mph (25 km/h).
Non-interchangeability of
wheels
Each of the sensors incor -
porated in the valves 1 is
dedicated to a single wheel:
under no circumstances
should you swap the wheels.
There is a risk of incorrect informa-
tion which could have serious con -
sequences.
To mark the correct position of the
wheel, note the colour of ring 2 (after
cleaning, if necessary) on each valve:
A yellow ring
B black ring
C red ring
D green ring
