Driving With a Flat Tire
Michelin PAX System
If equipped
Your vehicle is equipped with the
Michelin PAX system. Since each
Michelin PAX system tire has an
inner support ring that allows it to
continue running without air, it may
be difficult to immediately judge
from its appearance if a tire is
punctured. Your vehicle is also
equipped with a tire pressure
monitoring system (TPMS), and this
system may be your first detection of
a flat tire.

The TPMS monitors the air pressure
of all four tires whenever the ignition
switch is in the ON (II) position. It
will immediately sense if a tire starts
to lose its pressure, and give you
warning with the low tire pressure
indicator in the instrument panel and
a ''CHECK TIRE PRESSURE''
message on the multi-information
display. If the indicator and the
warning message do not come on
again after you inflate the tire to its
correct air pressure (see page
it was probably a natural loss of the
air pressure and you can continue
driving as before.
If the indicator and the message
come on again, you probably have a
flat tire. In this case, you will see a
''PAX SYSTEM WARNING''
message on the multi-information
display.
