the tyre under-inflation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver.
Under-inflation detection
System which continuously and automatically checks the pressures of the four tyres after switching on the ignition.
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of each tyre (except the spare wheel).
th
e system triggers an alert if a drop in pressure is detected in one or more tyres, compared to the reference pressure registered in the system. t
h
is
reference pressure must be reinitialised every time the tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.
th

e system operates on condition that sensor identifiers have first been memorised in the system by a P
e
uge
Ot
dealer or a qualified workshop.
You can memorise two sets of tyres (for example: wheels with "standard" tyres and wheels with "winter" tyres).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
th
is system does not avoid the need
to check the tyre pressures regularly
(including the spare wheel) and before
a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
adversely affects road holding,
extends braking distances and causes
premature tyre wear, particularly under
arduous conditions (vehicle loaded,
high speed, long journey).
th

e tyre pressures for your vehicle can
be found on the tyre pressure label
(see the "Identification markings"
section).
th

e tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped
for 1 hour or after driving for less then
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.
