nder-inflation On fixed. The tyre pressure for one or more
wheels is too low. Check the tyre pressures as soon as possible.
This check should preferably be done with the tyres
cold.
You must reinitialise the system after every adjustment
of one or more tyre pressures and after replacing one
or more wheels.
For more information on the Under-inflation
detection
, refer to the corresponding section.
Flashing then fixed. The system has a fault and/or one or more wheels does not have a
detected sensor. The tyre pressures are no longer monitored.
Have the system checked by a C ITROËN

This function gives an estimate of the number
of miles (km) that your vehicle can still cover,
based on the recent conditions of use (driving
style, use of heating, air conditioning...).
Range indicator
When the remaining range falls to a
low level, "- - -" is displayed in the
instrument panel.

of wheels and tyres with sensor, you have to
select the corresponding set in the instrument
panel screen after fitting them.

Daytime running lamps
Special daytime lighting so that the vehicle can
be seen more easily.
The daytime running lamps come on
automatically when starting the motor, if no
other lighting is on.
They cannot be deactivated.Automatic illumination of headlamps
With the main lighting control ring in the AUTO
position, the sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps
come on automatically, without any action by the
driver, when a low level of ambient light is detected.
When the light returns to a sufficient level or the
wipers are switched off, the lighting is switched off
automatically.
The sensor is located at the base of the windscreen.
Automatic illumination of
headlamps
Automatic lighting off
When the lighting stalk is in the
"AUTO" position, if the ignition switch is in
the "LOCK" or "ACC" position or if the key
has been removed, the lighting switches off
automatically when the driver's door is
opened .
Although these lamps are located in
the same unit as the front foglamp, they
operate with a specific bulb.
Their use is covered by road vehicle
lighting regulations.
In foggy weather or in snow, the
sunshine sensor may detect sufficient
light. The lighting will not come on
automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, the
associated functions will no longer be
controlled.

Under-inflation detection
System which continuously and automatically
checks the pressures of the four tyres after
switching on the ignition.
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of
each tyre.
The system triggers an alert if a drop in
pressure is detected in one or more tyres,
compared to the reference pressure registered
in the system. This reference pressure must be
reinitialised every time the tyre pressures are
adjusted or a wheel changed.
The system operates on condition that sensor
identifiers have first been memorised in the
system by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
You can memorise two sets of tyres (for
example: wheels with "standard" tyres and
wheels with "winter" tyres).The tyre under-inflation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver. This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures monthly and
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
adversely affects road holding,
extends braking distances and causes
premature tyre wear, particularly under
arduous conditions (vehicle loaded,
high speed, long journey).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption. The tyre pressures for your vehicle can
be found on the tyre pressure label.
For more information on the
Identification markings
, refer to the
corresponding section.
The tyre pressures must be checked
with the tyres "cold" (vehicle stopped
for 1 hour or after driving for less then
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.

top as soon as it is safe to do so.
Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures in the four tyres are
suitable for the conditions of use of the
vehicle and as specified on the tyre
pressure label.
The under-inflation detection system
cannot warn of an incorrect pressure at
the time of reinitialisation.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always lead to visible deformation of the
tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check.
The alert is maintained until the
reference pressure is reinitialised after
the reinflation, repair or replacement
of the tyres concerned. In the event of
the repair or replacement of tyres, the
sensor identifiers must be registered in
the system by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

The under-inflation alert is only reliable
if the system has been reinitialised
with the four tyre pressures correctly
adjusted.Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop
to have the system checked
or, following the repair of a puncture, to
have the original wheel, equipped with a
sensor, refitted.
The reinitialisation instruction is entered in
the instrument panel screen screen, with the
ignition on and the vehicle stationary.

Reinitialisation of the system is confirmed
by the flashing of the warning lamp in the
instrument panel.
You then have to drive about 100 metres before
the warning lamp goes off.
Operating fault
The flashing and then fixed illumination
of the under-inflation warning lamp
indicates a fault with the system.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is
not assured.
This alert is also displayed if:
-

o

ne or more wheels is not fitted with a
sensor.
-

a w

ireless device operating on the same
frequency is close to the vehicle.
-

t

here are accumulations of snow or ice in
the wings or in the wheel rims.
-

t

he state of charge of the tyre pressure
monitoring system battery is too low.
-

t

he wheel sensor identifiers have not been
memorised in the system by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop. Any tyre repair or replacement on a
wheel fitted with this system must be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If you fit the second set of tyres
memorised in the system, a fault will
be signalled until the second set is
selected in the configuration menu.
