Advanced Driving Assistance Systems (ADAS)

Depending on version, the navigation map
data may be outdated.
Warning
Spare wheel
The tire under-inflation detection cannot,
in any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
regularly check the tire pressures (including
the spare wheel), especially before a long
journey.
Driving with under-inflated tires, particularly in
adverse conditions (heavy load, high speed,
long journey):
The steel spare wheel does not have an under-
inflation detection sensor.
Caution
The system is intended to help the driver
within a defined speed range to recognise
certain traffic signs. Do not ignore traffic signs
which are not displayed by the system.
Do not let this special feature tempt you into
taking risks when driving.
Always adapt speed regarding road, traffic
and weather conditions.
The driver assistance systems do not relieve
the driver from full responsibility for vehicle
operation.
Under-inflation alert
This is signalled by the fixed illumination of this
warning lamp
signal and, depending on equipment, the display
of a message.

increases energy consumption.
► Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so.
When driving abroad make sure the vehicle
uses the speed unit of the respective country.
If necessary, select the correct units in the
Info Display.
► Using a compressor, such as the one in the
tire repair kit, check and adjust the pressures
of all four tires when cold.
Warning
Checking tire pressures
► If it is not possible to do this check, drive
carefully at reduced speed.
Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS)
This system alerts the driver if one or more tires
suffer a drop in pressure.
This check should be done monthly when the
tires are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour
or after a journey of less than 10 km at
moderate speeds).
Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures
shown on the label.
► In the event of a puncture, use the tire repair
kit or the light (depending on equipment).
Warning
The alert is raised when the vehicle is moving,
not when stationary.
The loss of pressure detected may not
always cause visible deformation of the tire.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
It compares the information given by the
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised every time the tire
pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.
It takes into account the last values stored
during the reinitialisation request. It is therefore
essential that the tire pressure is correct during
the operation. This operation is the driver’s
responsibility.
NOTE:
The inflation pressures defined for the vehicle
can be found on the tire pressure label.
For more information on the Identification
markings, refer to the corresponding section.
Warning
Driving too slowly may not ensure
optimum monitoring.
NOTE:
The alert is not immediately triggered in the
event of a sudden loss of pressure or tire
blow-out. This is because analysis of the
values read by the wheel's speed sensors
can take several minutes.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be reinitialised
after fitting or removing snow chains.
