Driving -> Tyre Pressure Monitor for Your Renault Megane SUV Second Generation (2003-2008)

TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR  
This system continuously monitors  
Operating principle  
the tyre pressures.  
Each wheel has a sensor integrated  
in the inflation valve which  
periodically measures the tyre  
pressure.  
Tyre pressures should be adjusted  
when the tyres are cold.  
If tyre pressures cannot be checked  
when the tyres are cold, the  
pressures indicated must be  
increased by 0.2 to 0.3 bar (3 PSI).  
The driver is constantly informed of  
the tyre pressure status on the  
instrument panel display.  
Never deflate a hot tyre.  
This function is an  
additional driving aid.  
However, the function  
does not take the place of the  
driver. It cannot, therefore, under  
any circumstances replace the  
vigilance or the responsibility of  
the driver.  
Check the tyre pressures once a  
month.

Non-interchangeability of wheels  
To mark the correct position of the  
wheel, note the colour of ring 2  
(after cleaning, if necessary) on each  
valve:  
- A : yellow ring  
- B : black ring  
- C : red ring  
Each of the sensors  
integrated in the valves 1  
is dedicated to one single  
wheel:  
under  
no  
circumstances should you swap  
the wheels.  
- D : green ring  
There is a risk of incorrect  
information which could have  
serious consequences.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR (continued)  
Emergency spare wheel  
The emergency spare wheel does  
not have a sensor and so cannot be  
detected by the system.

When it is fitted in the place of  
another wheel, the system detects a  
fault.

Replacing wheels/tyres  
This system requires special  
equipment (wheels, hubcaps, etc.).  
Contact your RENAULT Dealer to  
find  
out  
about  
accessories  
compatible with the system and  
which may be purchased from  
RENAULT outlets: the use of any  
other accessory could affect the  
correct operation of the system.  
Display  
Display 1 on the instrument panel  
informs you of any possible  
inflation faults (flat tyre, punctured  
tyre, system fault, etc.).  
The following pages show the  
possible warning lights, symbols  
and messages.  
Tyre repair aerosols  
Because the valves are specially  
designed, use only aerosols  
approved by RENAULT's Technical  
Department.  
2.15  
TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR (continued)  
Examples of messages which may appear on the display  
"Inflate tyres: motorway"  
"Stop! Tyre puncture"  
The tyre pressure is not suitable for  
the driving speed. Slow down or  
inflate all four tyres to motorway  
pressure(refer to the Tyre pressure  
table).  
Replace the wheel affected B or  
contact a RENAULT Dealer.  
A
This message appears accompanied  
by the  
warning light.  
"Tyre pressure sensor fault"  
One  
wheel  
(A)  
disappears,  
indicating that a sensor is missing  
from this wheel or is faulty (e.g., if  
the emergency spare wheel has been  
fitted to the vehicle).  
B
"Check tyre pressures"  
A shaded wheel B, indicates a  
deflated or over-inflated tyre.
