TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
System which automatically checks the pressures
of the tyres while driving.
The
system
continuously
monitors
the
pressures of the four tyres, as soon as
the
vehicle is moving.
A
pressure
sensor
is
located
in
the
valve
of
each
tyre
(except
the
spare
wheel).
The
system
triggers
an
alert
if
a
drop
in
pressure
is
detected
in
one
or
more
tyres. This
system
does
not
avoid
the
need
to
check
the
tyre
pressures
regularly
(including
the
spare
wheel)
and before a long journey.
Driving
with
under-inflated
tyres
adversely
af
fects
road
holding,
extends
braking
distances
and
causes
premature
tyre
wear
,
particularly
under
arduous
con
-
ditions
(vehicle
loaded,
high
speed,
long journey).
Driving
with
under-inflated
tyres
increases
fuel consumption.The tyre pressures for your vehi-
cle
can
be
found
on
the
tyre
pres
-
sure
label
(see
the
"Identification
markings"
section).
The
tyre
pressures
must
be
checked
when
the
tyres
cold
(vehicle
stopped
for
1
hour
or
af
-
ter
driving
for
less
then
6
miles
(10
km)
at
moderate
speed).
Otherwise,
add
0.3
bar
to
the
values
indicated on the label.
The
tyre
under-inflation
detection
sys
-
tem
is
an
aid
to
driving
which
does
not
replace
the
need
for
vigilance
on
the
part
of the driver.

a fault with the system.
Operating fault
The alert is given by the fixed il -
lumination of this warning lamp, accompanied
by
an
audible signal,
and
depending
on
equip
-
ment,
the
display
of
a
message.
Under-inflation alert
The alert is maintained until the tyre
or tyres concerned is rein -
flated,
repaired or replaced.
The
spare
wheel
(space-saver
type
or
a
steel
rim)
does
not
have
a sensor.
The
loss
of
pressure
detected
does
not
always
lead
to
visible
deformation
of
the
tyre.
Do
not
rely
on just a visual check. This
alert
is
also
displayed
when
one
or
more
wheels
is
not
fit

ted
with
a
sensor
(for
example,
a
space-saver
or
steel
spare
wheel).

Stop
as soon as it is safe to do so.
In
this

sures is not assured.
F
If
you
have
a
compressor
(the
one
in
the
temporary
puncture
repair
kit
for
example),
check
the
four
tyre
pressures
when cold.
If
it
is
not
possible
to
check
the
tyre
pressures
at
the
time,
drive
care
-
fully at reduced speed.
or
F
In the event of a puncture, use the
temporary
puncture
repair
kit
or
the
spare
wheel
(according
to
equip
-
ment).
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.
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
after
changing
a
tyre,
a
wheel
is
not
detected
by
your
vehicle
(fitting
snow
tyres
for
example),
you
must
have
the
system
reinitialised
by
a
CITROËN
dealer
or a qualified workshop.
