Driving -> TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR for Your Renault Scenic 4 Door Second Generation (2003-2009)

TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR  
This system monitors the tyre  
inflation pressure.  
Operating principle  
Each wheel (except the emergency  
spare wheel) has a sensor in the  
inflation valve which periodically  
measures the tyre pressure.  
The pressures must be adjusted  
when the tyres are cold.  
If tyre pressures cannot be checked  
when the tyres are cold, assume an  
increase of 0.2 to 0.3 bar (3 psi).  
The system informs the driver that  
the tyres are sufficiently inflated  
and warns if they are under-  
inflated or if there is a leak.  
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.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR (continued)  
Fitting tyres (replacing tyres or  
fitting winter tyres)  
As there are special precautions to  
be taken when replacing tyres, we  
advise you to consult your  
RENAULT Dealer.

Non-interchangeability of  
wheels  
To mark the correct position of the  
wheel, note the colour of the ring 2  
(after cleaning, if necessary) on each  
valve:  
- A: yellow ring  
- B: black ring  
- C: red ring  
Each of the sensors  
integrated into the valve  
1 is dedicated to one  
single wheel: the wheels  
should not be swapped in any  
circumstances.  
- D: green ring  
There is a risk of incorrect  
information which could have  
serious consequences.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR (continued)  
Emergency spare wheel  
The 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  
1
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  
various warning lights, symbols and  
messages.  
Tyre repair aerosols  
Because the valves are specially  
designed, use only aerosols  
approved by Renault's Technical  
Department.

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 along with  
the  
warning light.  
"Tyre pressure sensor fault"  
One  
wheel  
(A)  
disappears,  
indicating that the sensor on this  
wheel is missing or faulty (e.g. if the  
emergency spare wheel is fitted  
etc.).  
B
"Adjust tyre pressure"  
A shaded wheel B, indicates a  
deflated tyre.
