TYRE PRESSURE LOSS WARNING
Operating conditions
The system has to be reset with an
inflation pressure equal to that writ-
ten on the tyre inflation pressure label.
Otherwise it risks not giving a reliable
warning in the event of a significant loss
of pressure. ➥ 4.10.
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;
(2/4)
– fitting a single new tyre;
– use of tyres not approved by the net-
work;
– ...
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid.
The function does not take
the place of the driver. It
cannot, therefore, under any cir-
cumstances replace the vigilance or
the responsibility of the driver.
Check the tyre pressures, including
the emergency spare wheel, once a
month.
Resetting the standard level for the
tyre pressures
It must be carried out with the vehicle
stopped:
– 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 swapping a wheel (however,
this practice is not recommended).
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.).
