Driving
The system monitors the pressure in all four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
Operating faults
The tyre pressure specifications for your
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the
Identification markings, refer to the
corresponding section.
Tyre pressures should be checked when
the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for
1 hour or after a journey of less than
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
Otherwise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to the
pressures shown on the label.
It compares the information given by the
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised after every tyre
pressure adjustment or wheel change.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the pressure of one or more
tyres.
When the function is not activated,
this warning lamp temporarily
flashing and an audible signal
indicate a system fault.
If the fault occurs during the use of the system,
the warning lamp goes off.
If the fault in the parking sensors,
indicated by this warning lamp
coming on, occurs during use, it
causes the function to deactivate.
The tyre under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver.
This system still requires you to check
the tyre inflation pressures (including
the spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
handling, extends braking distances and
causes early tyre wear, particularly in
adverse conditions (heavy loads, high
speeds, long journeys).
In the event of a fault, have the system checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains.
In the event of a fault with the
power steering, this warning lamp
flashes in the instrument panel,
accompanied by a message.

Under-inflation alert
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
This warning is indicated by fixed
illumination of this warning lamp, an
audible signal and, depending on
the equipment installed, a message
displayed on the screen.
Under-inꢀation detection
This system automatically monitors the tyre
pressure while driving.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
F Reduce speed immediately, avoid excessive
steering movements and sudden braking.
F
Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
