Under-inflation detection
The system monitors the pressures in the four t
yres, once the vehicle is moving.
It
compares the information given by the four
w
heel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed .
The
system triggers an alert as soon as it
d
etects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
o
r more tyres. The
under-inflation detection system
d
oes not replace the need for vigilance
o
n the part of the driver.
This
system does not avoid the need to
c
heck the tyre pressures (including the
s
pare wheel) every month as well as
b
efore a long journey.
Driving
with under-inflated tyres impairs
r
oad holding, extends braking distances
a
nd causes premature tyre wear,
p
articularly under arduous condition
(
high loading, high speed, long journey).
System
which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
The inflation pressures defined for
y
our vehicle can be found on the tyre
p
ressure label.
See
the "Identification markings"
s
ection.
Tyre
pressures should be checked
w
hen the tyres are "cold" (vehicle
s
topped for 1 hour or after a journey of
l
ess than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate
s
peeds).
Other wise
(when hot), add 0.3 bar to
t
he pressures shown on the label.
Driving
with under-inflated tyres
i
ncreases fuel consumption.

This is given by fixed illumination of t

a

quipment, the display of a message. It
is necessary to reinitialise the system every t

A
label attached to the middle pillar, driver's

F

top the vehicle as soon as it is safe
to
do
so. F
I n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary
puncture repair kit or the spare
w
heel (depending on equipment),
or
F
i
f you have a compressor, such as the one
i
n the temporary puncture repair kit, check
t
he pressures of the four tyres when cold,
or
F
i
f it is not possible to make this check
i
mmediately, drive carefully at reduced
s
peed.
The
loss of pressure detected does not

not satisfy yourself with just a visual

heck. The
alert is maintained until the system
