VIII - Safety -> Tyre under-inflation detection for Your Citroen C4 Picasso SUV First Generation (2006-2013)

S A F E T Y  
Puncture  
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION  
DETECTION  
The STOP warning lamp  
comes on in the instrument  
panel, accompanied by an  
audible signal and a mes-  
sage on the multifunction screen lo-  
cating the wheel concerned.  
Stop immediately, avoiding any sud-  
den movement of the steering wheel  
and the brakes.  
Change the damaged wheel (punc-  
tured or very deated tyre), and  
have the tyre pressure checked as  
soon as possible.  
All repairs and changing of tyres  
on a wheel tted with this system  
must be carried out by a CITROËN  
dealer or a qualied workshop.  
If, when changing a tyre, you in-  
stall a wheel which is not detected  
by your vehicle (example: tting  
of snow tyres), you must have the  
system reinitialised by a CITROËN  
dealer or a qualied workshop.  
Sensors tted in each valve check  
the tyre pressure during driving and  
trigger a warning in the event of  
malfunction (speed above 12 mph  
(20 km/h)).  
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty  
The service warning lamp  
comes on in the instrument  
panel, accompanied by an  
audible signal and a mes-  
sage on the multifunction screen  
locating the wheel or wheels which  
are not detected or indicating a fault  
in the system.  
This system does not avoid the  
need to have the tyre pressures  
checked regularly (refer to the  
"Technical data  
-
Identication  
VIII  
markings" section) to ensure that  
the optimum dynamic performance  
of the vehicle is maintained and  
prevent premature wear of the  
tyres, particularly in arduous driv-  
ing conditions (heavy load, high  
speed).  
The tyre under-ination detection  
system is an aid to driving which  
does not replace the vigilance or  
responsibility of the driver.  
Have the faulty sensor(s) checked  
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualied  
workshop.  
Under-inated tyre  
The tyre pressures must be  
checked cold, at least once a  
month. Remember to check the  
pressure of the spare wheel.  
The tyre under-ination detection  
system may experience temporary  
interference due to electro-magnetic  
signals on a frequency close to that  
used by the system.  
The service warning lamp  
comes on in the instrument  
panel, accompanied by an  
audible signal and a mes-  
sage on the multifunction screen lo-  
cating the wheel concerned.  
Check the tyre pressures as soon as  
possible. This check must be carried  
out when the tyres are cold.  
This message is also displayed  
when one of the wheels is away  
from the vehicle (being repaired) or  
when one or more wheels without a  
sensor are tted.  
The spare wheel is not tted with a  
sensor.
