Any
tyre repair or replacement on a wheel
f

ITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
If
after changing a tyre, a wheel is not detected
b

y
ou must have the system reinitialised by a
C
ITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always
lead to visible deformation of

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
