TYRE PRESSURE LOSS WARNING
– significant change in load or distri-
bution of load on one side of the ve-
hicle;
– sporty driving with strong acceler-
ation;
– driving on snowy or slippery sur-
face;
– driving with snow chains;
– fitting a single new tyre;
– use of tyres not approved by the
network.
– after each re-inflation or resetting
of tyre pressure;
– after changing a wheel;
– after changing wheels around.
Tyre pressures must correspond to
the current usage of the vehicle
(empty, carrying a load, motorway
driving, etc.). Respect the tyre pres-
sures (including the emergency
spare wheel). Check them at least
once a month and before every long
journey (refer to the label on the
edge of the driver’s doorꢀ 340).
This function is an ad-
ditional driving aid.
The function does not
take the place of the
driver. It cannot, therefore, un-
der any circumstances replace
3
the vigilance or the responsibili-
ty of the driver. Check the tyre
pressures, including the emer-
gency spare wheel, once a
month.
The tyre pressure must be
checked before starting
the resetting procedure.
The system will not issue a
warning if the pressure does not
correspond to the recommend-
ed pressure.

Operating conditions
In order to provide a reliable warning
in the event of pressure loss, the sys-
tem must be reset with an inflation
pressure equal to one of those
shown on the tyre inflation pressure
label (reference values) ꢀ 340.
Resetting should always be carried
out after checking the tyre pressure
of all four tyres when cold.
In the following situations, the sys-
tem risk coming into action late or
not functioning correctly:
The sudden loss of pres-
sure in a tyre (burst tyre,
etc.) cannot be immedi-
ately detected by the system.
– system not reset after reinflation
or any operation on the wheels;
– incorrectly reset system: tyre pres-
sures different from the recom-
mended pressures;
Procedure for resetting the
standard levels for the tyre
pressures
The resetting procedure must be
carried out while the vehicle is sta-
tionary and the ignition is switched
This should be performed:
