TYRE PRESSURE LOSS WARNING
Operating conditions
The system should be reset with a
pressure equal to that stated on the tyre
pressure label (refer to the information
on "Tyre Pressures" in section 4), other-
wise it may not give a reliable warning
in the event of significant pressure loss.
Resetting should always be carried
out after checking the tyre pressure
of all four tyres when cold.
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;
(2/6)
– 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.
The sudden loss of pressure in a
tyre (burst tyre, etc.) cannot be de-
tected by the system.
Resetting the standard level
for the tyre pressures
This should be done:
– after each re-inflation or resetting of
tyre pressure;
– after changing a wheel;
– after changing wheels around.
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.
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.
