The alert is maintained until the tyre or tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired or replaced. The spare wheel (space-saver type or a steel rim) does not have a sensor.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always lead to visible deformation of the tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check.
This alert is also displayed when one or more wheels is not fitted with a sensor (for example, a space-saver or steel spare wheel).
The alert is given by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal, and depending on equipment, the display of a message.
The flashing and then fixed illumination of the under-inflation warning lamp accompanied by the illumination of the "service" warning lamp indicates a fault with the system.
Under-inflation alert Operating fault
In the event of a problem on one of the tyres, the symbol or the message appears, according to equipment, to identify it.  Reduce speed, avoid sudden steering movements or harsh brake applications.  Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked or, following the repair of a puncture, to have the original wheel, equipped with a sensor, refitted.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is not assured.
 If you have a compressor (the one in the temporary puncture repair kit for example), check the four tyre pressures when cold. If it is not possible to check the tyre pressures at the time, drive carefully at reduced speed. or  In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel (according to equipment).

This system indicates the proximity of an obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.) which comes within the field of detection of sensors located in the bumper. Certain types of obstacle (stake, roadworks cone, etc.) detected initially will no longer be detected at the end of the manoeuvre due to the presence of blind spots.

This function cannot, in any circumstances, take the place of the vigilance and responsibility of the driver.
Rear parking
sensors
The system is switched on by engaging reverse gear. This is accompanied by an audible signal. The system is switched off when you come out of reverse gear.
Audible assistance
