Tyre Pressure Sensing (Option)
Tyre pressure sensing monitors the vehicle tyre pressures
and feeds-back this info rmation to the driver.
Each road wheel is installed with a tyre pressure sensing
device which sends tyre pressu re information to a control
unit mounted in the centre, rear wall of the boot.
The control unit provides a
visual warning by illuminating
the tyre pressure warning lamp
(A) on the instrument panel if
any tyre pressure falls below
specification.
Pressure Sensing
with Winter Wheels
and Tyres
If the tyre pressure sensing option is installed on the vehicle,
the winter road wheel and tyre option with the tyre pressure
sensing system should be installed. The tyre pressure sensing
system will need to be programmed to recognize additional
tyres.

WAR NI NG
TYRE PRESSURE SENSING IS NOT INTENDED TO REPLACE DRIVER AWARENESS OF TYRE
PERFORMANCE OR THE NEED FOR RECOMMENDED WEEKLY CHECKS ON TYRE CONDITION AND
PRESSURE.
Each pressure sensing device
has a colour coded collar.
Ensure the coloured collars
are always installed in their
original positions, i.e. after
new tyres are installed.

Reduce speed to 48 km/h (30 mph). Stop in safe place as
soon as possible.
One of the coloured LEDs on the control module will
illuminate to indicate which tyre requires inflating . The
LED colour corresponds to th e colour of the band below
each tyre valve cap. Inspect affected tyre. Re-inflate if
necessary. If on inspection the tyre is found to be OK,
continue at 48 km/h (30 mph) maximum.
Ensure that the coloured band remains in position.

Information, Gauge and Warning (13.00)
Instrument Cluster (13.01)
Description
The Driver Information module contains the necessary electronic control units and memories to control, process and
present all necessary vehicle information to the driver.
1. Information on vehicle performance is presented in visible form using the instruments and gauges. These
devices present such information as Vehicle Speed,
Engine Speed, Fuel Level and Coolant Temperature.
2. Information on vehicle status is presented by an array of warning lights.
• Red - indicate immediate danger warnings
• Amber - indicate conditions which are serious but not immediately dangerous
• Green and Blue - indicate normal actuation of items such as turn signals or fog lamps
The message centres and the shift position Sensor
display are used to present information on the distance
recorders (trip meters), current gear mode and current
gear engaged.
3. The right message centre is used to display any warning/ information message text. These text messages may be
reinforced in some cases by illumination of the
appropriate warning lamps.
The following table defines all information and warning
lamps and their significance:
