Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.The under-inflation detection system
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 (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
road holding, extends braking distances
and causes premature tyre wear,
particularly under arduous conditions
(high loading, high speed, long journey).
The inflation pressures defined for
your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure label.
For more information on the
Identification markings
, refer to the
corresponding section.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing
snow chains.
Under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed .
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres. Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done when
the
tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped
for
1 hour or after a journey of less than
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures
shown on the label.

Under-inflation alertReinitialisation
Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures of the four tyres are
correct for the use of the vehicle and in
line with the recommendations on the
tyre pressure label.
The under-inflation alert can only
be relied on if the reinitialisation of
the system has been done with the
pressures in the four tyres correctly
adjusted.
The under-inflation detection system
does not give a warning if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
This is given by fixed illumination of
this warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal and, depending on
equipment, the display of a message.
It is necessary to reinitialise the system every
time one or more tyre pressures are adjusted,
and after changing one or more wheels.

The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual

is reinitialised.

Operating fault
The flashing and then fixed illumination of the
under-inflation warning lamp accompanied
by illumination of the Service warning lamp
indicates a fault with the system.
A message appears, accompanied by an
audible signal.
In this case, under-inflation monitoring of the
tyres is no longer assured.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Before doing anything to the system,
the pressures of the four tyres must be
checked and the system reinitialised.

Composition of the kit
The speed limit sticker must be secured
to the interior of the vehicle in the
driver's field of vision, to remind you
that a wheel is in temporary use.
The vehicle's electric system allows the
connection of the compressor for long
enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture
repair.
This kit is installed in the storage box, under the
boot floor.
Comprising a compressor and a sealant
cartridge, it allows the temporary repair
of
a tyre so that you can drive to the nearest
garage.
It is designed to repair most punctures which
could affect the tyre, located on the tyre tread
or shoulder.
Temporary puncture repair kit
Access to the kit
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h) when driving with a tyre
repaired using this type of kit.
Tyre under-inflation detection
After repair of the tyre, the warning
lamp will remain on until the system is
reinitialised.

inflation detection , refer to the

Identification markings
A. Vehicle identification number (VIN),
under the bonnet.
The number is engraved on the body structure.-
t he maximum authorised vehicle weight
(the Gross Vehicle Weight or GV W),
-
t
he maximum authorised vehicle + trailer
weight (the Gross Train Weight or GTW),
-
t
he maximum weight on the front axle,
-

It also indicates the paint colour code.
B. Vehicle identification number (VIN), on
the dashboard.
The number is on a label, visible through the
windscreen. Checking tyre pressures
The tyre pressures should be checked when
cold at least monthly.
The pressures given on the label are valid for
cold tyres. If you have driven for more than
10
minutes or more than 6 miles (10 kilometres)
at more than 30 mph (50 km/h), the tyres will be
warm; in this case 0.3 bar (30 kPa) should be
added to the pressures given on the label.
Different visible markings for the identification of your vehicle.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption.Never reduce the pressure of a warm
tyre. The original tyres fitted to the vehicle
may have a load index or speed rating
higher than those given on the label;
this has no effect on the inflation
pressures.
C. Manufacturer's label.
This self-destructing label is affixed to the right-
hand door aperture.
It bears the following information:
-
t
he name of the manufacturer,
-
t
he European Whole Vehicle Type Approval
number,
-
t
he vehicle identification number (VIN), D. Tyres / paint code label.
This label is affixed to the driver's door
aperture.
It bears the following information on the tyres:
-
