MONITORING

127
RCZ_en_Chap06_conduite_ed01-2015
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of each of these tyres.
The system triggers an alert if a drop in pressure is detected in one or\

more tyres.This system does not avoid the need to check the tyre pressures
regularly 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).
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while
driving.
The system continuously monitors the pressures of the four tyres, as
soon as the vehicle is moving.
Driving with under-inflated tyres increases fuel consumption.
The tyre pressures for your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure label (see the "Identification markings" section).
The 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). Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the values indicated
on the label.
Spare wheel
Don't forget to also check the tyre pressure of the spare wheel.
The alloy spare wheel also has a sensor.
The steel spare wheel does not have a sensor.
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

.

DRIVING

128
RCZ_en_Chap06_conduite_ed01-2015
In the event of a problem on one of the tyres, a symbol or a message is \
displayed, depending on equipment, to identify it.
F

Reduce speed, avoid sudden steering movements or harsh brake
applications.
F


Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
F


In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or
the

spare wheel (according to equipment),


or
F

if you have a compressor
, the one in the temporary puncture repair
kit for example, check the four tyre pressures when cold,


or
F

if it is not possible to check the tyre pressures at the time, drive
carefully at reduced speed.
UNdER-INFLATION ALERT
The alert is given by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and the display of a
message.
The loss of pressure detected does not always lead to visible
deformation of the tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check. With the ignition on, the pressure must be increased by at least
0.2

bar. If necessary, adjust the pressures to the values given on
the tyre pressure label. The
flashing and then fixed illumination of this warning
lamp accompanied by the illumination of the service
warning lamp indicates a fault with the system.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is not assured.
This

alert is also displayed when one or more wheels is not fitted
with a sensor (steel spare wheel).
Go

to a PEUGEOT

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.
OPERATING FAULT
The alert is maintained until the tyre or tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired or replaced.

I.

Speed limit sticker
.
The speed limit sticker I
must be affixed to the vehicle's steering
wheel to remind you that a wheel is in temporary use.
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) when driving with a
tyre repaired using this type of kit.
The vehicle's electric system allows the connection of a
compressor

for long enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture repair
or

for inflating a small inflatable accessory.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

RCZ_en_Chap08_info-pratiques_ed01-2015
F Switch on the compressor by moving the switch B to position "I"
until the tyre pressure reaches 2.0 bars.
The sealant is injected into the tyre under pressure; do not
disconnect the pipe from the valve during this operation (risk of
splashing). F

Remove the kit and screw the cap back on the white pipe.
Take care to avoid staining your vehicle with traces of fluid. Keep
the kit to hand.
F

Drive immediately for approximately three miles (five kilometres),

at reduced speed (between 15 and 35 mph (20 and 60 km/h)), to
plug the puncture.
F


Stop to check the repair and the tyre pressure using the kit.
Do not start the compressor before connecting the white pipe
to the tyre valve: the sealant product would be expelled through
the pipe.
Tyre under-inflation detection
If the vehicle is fitted with tyre under-inflation detection,
the under-inflation warning lamp will remain on after the wheel
has been repaired until the system is reinitialised by a PEUGEOT


dealer
or a qualified workshop.
If after around 5 to 7 minutes the pressure is not attained, this
indicates that the tyre is not repairable; contact a PEUGEOT
dealer

or

a

qualified

workshop

for

assistance.

Connect the black pipe to the valve of the wheel.
As

soon as possible, go to a PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Y

ou must inform the technician that you have used this kit. After
inspection, the technician will advise you on whether the tyre can
be repaired or if it must be replaced.
F

Connect the compressor's electric plug to the vehicle's 12 V socket.
F


Start the vehicle again and leave the engine running. F

Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inflate: switch B
in position "I";
to deflate: switch B in position "O" and press
button
C), in accordance with the vehicle's tyre pressure label
(located on the left hand door aperture).
A

loss of pressure indicates that the puncture has not been fully
plugged;
contact a PEUGEOT

dealer or qualified workshop for
assistance.
F
