Under-inflation detection
The under-inflation detection system d

o

n the part of the driver.
This
system does not avoid the need to
c

heck the tyre pressures (including the
s

pare wheel) every month as well as
b

efore a long journey.
Driving
with under-inflated tyres impairs
r

oad holding, extends braking distances
a

nd causes premature tyre wear,
p

articularly under arduous condition
(

high loading, high speed, long journey).The
inflation pressures defined for y
our vehicle can be found on the tyre
p

ressure label.
For
more information on the
i

dentification markings, refer to the
c

orresponding
s
ection.
Tyre
pressures should be checked
w

hen the tyres are "cold" (vehicle
s

topped for 1 hour or after a journey of
l

ess than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate
s

peeds).
Other wise
(when hot), add 0.3 bar to
t

he pressures shown on the label.
Driving
with under-inflated tyres
i

ncreases fuel consumption.
