Stop the vehicle as soon as possible, check all
your tyres and inflate them to the recommended
pressure, see Tyre pressures, page 6.38. The
warning light will be extinguished once the tyres
have been inflated to the correct pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-inflated tyre
causes the tyre to overheat and can lead to tyre
failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel
efficiency and tyre tread life, and may affect the
vehicle s handling and stopping ability.
WARNING: TPMS is not a substitute
for proper tyre maintenance, and it
is the driver's responsibility to
maintain correct tyre pressure, even
if under-inflation has not reached the
level to trigger illumination of the
TPMS low tyre pressure warning
light.
Each tyre should be checked weekly when cold
and inflated/deflated to the inflation pressure
recommended on the tyre pressure label.
Navigate through the 'Vehicle Info screen on the
Folding Driver Display to view the current tyre
pressures, see Vehicle info, page 3.07.
The display shows the pressures of each of the
four tyres. If the pressure figure appears in
green, no action is required. If it appears as red
text, inflate the associated tyre to the correct
pressure as soon as possible.
Inspect the tyre(s) for any possible causes of
reduced tyre pressure.
WARNING: The tyre pressures
indicated on the Folding Driver
Display will be more accurate with a
pressure gauge. The tyre pressure
monitoring system is not a substitute
for manually checking tyre pressures
or checking for wear and damage. The
system only provides a low tyre
pressure warning and does not re-
inflate the tyres.
The tyre pressure monitoring system
cannot alert you to damage to a tyre.
Regularly check the condition of your
tyres.
WARNING: If low pressure warnings
occur frequently, have the tyres
checked at your McLaren retailer.
Driving on an under-inflated tyre will
cause the tyre to overheat and can
lead to tyre failure.
ENVIRONMENTAL: Under-inflated tyres
reduce fuel efficiency and tyre tread
life, and may affect the vehicle's
handling and braking characteristics.
ENVIRONMENTAL: Check tyre pressures
at least every 7 days.
