TYRE PRESSURE LOSS WARNING (2/7)
SYSTEM A
Operating principle
This system detects a loss of pressure
in one of the tyres by measuring the
wheel speed while driving.
Warning light
1 comes on to
alert the driver in the event of insuffi-
cient pressure (deflated wheel, punc-
tured tyre, etc.). Operating conditions
The system has to be reset with an in-
flation pressure equal to that written
on the tyre inflation pressure label.
Otherwise it risks not giving a reliable
warning in the event of a significant loss
of pressure. Please refer to the informa-
tion on “Tyre pressures” in Section 4.
In the following situations, the system
risk coming into action late or not func-
tioning correctly:
– system not reset after reinflation or
any operation on the wheels;
– system badly reset: different inflation pressures from the recommended
pressures;
– significant change in load or distribu- tion of load on one side of the vehi-
cle;
– sporty driving with strong accelera- tion;
– driving on snowy or slippery surface;
– driving with snow chains; – fitting a single new tyre;
– use of tyres not approved by the net-
work.

This function is an additio-
nal driving aid.
However, the function does
not take the place of the
driver. It cannot, therefore, under
any circumstances replace the vi-
gilance or the responsibility of the
driver.
Check the tyre pressures, including
the emergency spare wheel, once a
month.

TYRE PRESSURE LOSS WARNING (3/7)
SYSTEM A (cntd.)
Resetting the standard level for the
tyre pressures
This should be done:
– after each reinflation or readjustment of the pressure of one of the tyres;
– when the standard tyre pressure needs to be changed to adapt to
usage conditions (empty, carrying a
load, motorway driving, etc.);
– after changing a wheel;
– after using the tyre inflation kit;
– after changing wheels around.
It should always be done after checking
the tyre pressure of all four tyres when
cold.
Tyre pressures must correspond to the
current usage of the vehicle (empty,
carrying a load, motorway driving, etc.).
Display
Inflate tyres and SEt tP
The warning light
comes on (not
flashing).
This indicates that at least one tyre is
flat or punctured.
In the event of a flat tyre, inflate the rel-
evant tyre.
In the event of a puncture, change the
tyre or consult an authorised dealer.
Check and readjust the pressure of the
four tyres when cold, and launch the
reset of the tyre pressure reference
value.
Warning light
goes out after
launching the reinitialisation of the tyre
pressure reference value.

Resetting procedure
With the ignition on:
– repeatedly press the button 3 to
select the “SEt tP” function on the
display 2;
– press and hold (around 3 seconds) the button 3 to start initialisation. The
flashing, lasting around five seconds,
followed by a constant display of the
message «SEt tP" indicates that the
reset request for the tyre pressure
reference value has been taken into
account.
Reinitialisation is carried out after a few
minutes’ driving.
The sudden loss of pressure in a
tyre (burst tyre, etc.) cannot be de-
tected by the system.

TYRE PRESSURE LOSS WARNING (4/7)
SYSTEM A (cntd.)
Relaunch SEt tP
Warning light
flashes for several
seconds, then stays on.
It indicates that the request to reset the
reference tyre pressure value must be
relaunched.
System unavailable
Warning light
flashes for several
seconds, then stays on.
Indicates that the vehicle is fitted with
an emergency spare wheel which is
smaller than the other four and is fitted
to the vehicle.
System to be checked
The warning light
flashes for
several seconds, then stays on, along
with the orange warning light
Ò.
They indicate a system fault. Please
consult an authorised dealer. Readjustment of tyre pressures
The tyre pressures must be adjusted
when cold
(please refer to the label lo-
cated on the edge of the driver’s door).
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, the recom-
mended pressures should be increased
by 0.2 to 0.3 bar (3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
After each reinflation or readjustment of
the tyre pressure, launch the reinitiali-
sation of the tyre pressure reference
value.
Replacing wheels/tyres
Only use equipment approved by the
brand network, or the system risks
being activated late or not operating
correctly. Please see the information on
“Tyres” in Section 5. After each change of wheel/tyre, rea-
djust the tyre pressure and launch the
reset of the tyre pressure reference
value.
Emergency spare wheel
If fitted on the vehicle, readjust the tyre
pressure and launch the reinitialisation
of the tyre pressure reference value.
Inflation kit
Only use equipment approved by the
brand network, or the system risks
being activated late or not operating
correctly. Please refer to “Tyre inflation
kit” in Section 5.
After using the tyre inflation kit, readjust
the tyre pressure and launch the reini-
tialisation of the tyre pressure reference
value.
2.26
TYRE PRESSURE LOSS WARNING (5/7)
SYSTEM B
Operating principle
Each wheel (except for the emergency
spare wheel) has a sensor in the infla-
tion valve which periodically measures
the tyre pressure while driving.
Warning light
1 comes on to
alert the driver in the event of insuffi-
cient pressure (deflated wheel, punc-
tured tyre, etc.). Resetting the standard level for the
tyre pressures
This should be performed:
– when the standard tyre pressure
needs to be changed to adapt to
usage conditions (empty, carrying a
load, motorway driving, etc.);
– after changing wheels around;
– after changing a wheel.
It should always be done after checking
the tyre pressure of all four tyres when
cold.
Tyre pressures must correspond to the
current usage of the vehicle (empty,
carrying a load, motorway driving, etc.).
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid.
However, the function does
not take the place of the
driver. It cannot, therefore, under
any circumstances replace the vig-
ilance or the responsibility of the
driver.
Check the tyre pressures, including
the emergency spare wheel, once a
month.

TRANSMISSION: 4-wheel drive (4WD) (2/4)
This problem may be resolved by chan-
ging the tyres. Always use four identi-
cal tyres (same brand, profile, etc.) and
with similar wear.
In the event of excessive wheelspin,
the mechanical components may be
overheating.
If this happens:
– at first, the
’ warning light
flashes. “4WD Lock” mode is still
active, however we recommend that
you stop as soon as possible to allow
the system to cool down (until the
warning light stops flashing);
– if the wheels still spin, the system au- tomatically switches to “2WD” mode
to protect the mechanical compo-
nents.
The
‘ warning light flashes. The
mode cannot be changed while the
light is flashing.
After one minute, the system switches
to “2WD” or “AUTO” mode depending
on the position of the selector.
Note: if the vehicle is travelling at a
speed of more than approximately
49.6 mph (80 km/h) or if it is travel-
ling at a speed of between 37.2 and
49.6 mph (60 and 80 km/h) for more
than one minute in «4WD Lock" mode,
the system automatically switches back
to "AUTO" mode. The warning light
’ goes out.
Special features of the
4-wheel drive transmission
The vehicle may make more noise when
the “AUTO" or "4WD Lock" modes are
activated. This is normal. If the system
detects a difference in the dimensions
of the front and rear wheels (eg. un-
derinflation, severe wear on an axle),
the system automatically switches to
"2WD" mode.
The
‘ and Ò warning lights on
the instrument panel come on. Drive as
soon as possible at a moderate speed
to an approved dealer.
To deactivate this mode, turn selector
1
to the “AUTO” position. The
‘ indi-
cator light on the instrument panel goes
out.
“4WD Lock" mode
To activate this mode, turn selector 1 to
the “4WD Lock” position. The selector
the returns to the “AUTO” position. The
’ indicator light will light up on the
instrument panel.
Operating principle
“4WD Lock” mode distributes the
engine torque between the front and
rear axles in order to optimise the per-
formance capacity of the vehicle in off-
road situations. This mode should only
be used in extreme driving conditions
(mud, steep slopes, sand).
To deactivate this mode, turn selector 1
to the “4WD Lock” position again. The
indicator light on the instrument panel
goes out. When the engine is switched
off, the system stays in “4WD Lock”
mode for one minute.
2.47
AUTOMATIC GEARBOX (3/4)
Special circumstances
– Depending on the vehicle, snow position: if you are driving on slip-
pery surfaces (snow, mud, etc.)
press switch 5, the operating indica-
tor light 6 comes on.
Once these special driving con-
ditions no longer apply, exit this
function by pressing switch 5
again. The warning light 6 goes
out.
5
– If the road contour and bends in
the road do not allow you to stay in
automatic mode (e.g.: in mountain-
ous areas), it is recommended that
you switch to manual mode.
This will prevent the automatic gear-
box from changing gears repeatedly
when climbing, and permit engine
braking on long descents.
– In cold weather , to prevent the
engine from stalling, wait a few sec-
onds before moving the selector
lever from position P or N and en-
gaging it in D or R. –
Vehicles not fitted with traction
control: on a slippery surface or
surface with a low level of adhesion,
change to manual mode and select
second gear (or even third) before
starting the engine to avoid wheel-
spin when accelerating.
In very cold weather, the system
may prevent the gears from being
shifted in manual mode until the
gearbox reaches the right tempera-
ture.

TYRES (3/4)
Changing wheels around
We recommend that you swap the
wheels regularly in order to ensure that
the tyres wear evenly.
Swap the wheels as shown in the above
diagram. Refer to your vehicle’s main-
tenance document for the intervals.
Emergency spare wheel
Refer to the information on the
“Emergency spare wheel” and
“Changing a wheel” in Section 5.
Fitting new tyres
For safety reasons, this
operation must be carried
out by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
– it may mean that your vehicle no longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
– It may change the way it handles when cornering;
– It may cause the steering to be heavy;
– it may affect the use of snow chains.
