have it checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop. The defl ation detection system is a
driving aid, but which does not ab-
solve the driver from the need to be
vigilant and responsible.
This system does not dispense
with the requirement to check
the tyres on a regular basis (see
"Identifi cation markings") to ensure
optimum vehicle behaviour and to
avoid premature tyre wear under
certain conditions (high load, high
speed).
Do not forget to check the tyre
pressure of the spare wheel .
Any repair or replacement of a tyre
on a wheel that is equipped with
a sensor must be carried out by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
The system may suffer from tem-
porary interference caused by
electro-magnetic transmissions on
frequencies close to that use by
the system .




)
If you have fi tted wheels that
are not equipped with tyre defl a-
tion detection (wheels with snow
tyres, etc.), contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
