Under-inflation alert Reinitialisation
Before reinitialising the system, ensure that the pressures of the four tyres are correct for the use of the vehicle and in line with the recommendations on the tyre pressure label. The under-inflation detection system does not give a warning if a pressure is incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
This is given by fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and, depending on
equipment, the display of a message.
It is necessary to reinitialise the system every time one or more tyre pressure is adjusted, and after changing one or more wheels. A label attached to the middle pillar, driver's side, gives a reminder of this.
 Reduce speed immediately, avoid excessive steering movements and sudden braking  Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
 In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel (depending on equipment), or  if you have a compressor, such as the one in the temporary puncture repair kit, check the pressures of the four tyres when cold, or  if it is not possible to make this check immediately, drive carefully at reduced speed.
The loss of pressure detected does not always cause visible bulging of the tyre. Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual check. The alert is maintained until the system is reinitialised.
