by illumination of the Service warning lamp
indicates a fault with the system.
A message appears, accompanied by an
audible signal.
Before doing anything to the system,
the pressures of the four tyres must be
checked and the system reinitialised.

is done with the four tyre pressures
correctly set. In this case, under-inflation monitoring of the
tyres is no longer assured.

situations, the power of their beams
may dazzle other drivers. They should
only be used in fog or falling snow.
In these weather conditions, you
should switch on the foglamps and
dipped beam headlamps manually,
as the sunshine sensor may detect
sufficient
light.
