Under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
T he under-inflation detection system
d
oes not replace the vigilance or the
r
esponsibility 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
i
mpairs road holding, extends braking
d
istances and causes premature
t
yre wear, particularly under arduous
condition
(high loading, high speed,
lon
g
jo
urney).The inflation pressures defined for
your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure
label.
See
the "Identification markings"
s
ection.
Tyre
pressures should be checked
w
hen the tyres are "cold" (vehicle
stopped
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.
The
system monitors the pressures in the four
t
yres, once the vehicle is moving.
It
compares the information given by the four
w
heel 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
d
etects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or
more tyres.
Page 153 of 376
151
DS3_en_Chap08_securite_ed01-2014
The alert is maintained until the system is r einitialised.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always
cause
visible
bulging
of
the
tyre.
D
o
not
satisfy
yourself
with
just
a
visual
c
heck. Before
reinitialising the system, ensure
t
hat the pressures of the four tyres are
correct for the use of the vehicle and in
line
with the recommendations on the
t
yre pressure label.
The
under-inflation detection system
d
oes not give a warning if a pressure is
i
ncorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
Under-inflation alert
This is given by fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by
a
n audible signal and the display of a
m
essage.

I f you have a compressor (such as the one

n the event of a puncture, use the

Reinitialisation
It is necessary to reinitialise the system every time one or more tyre pressure is adjusted, and
a
fter changing one or more wheels.
A
label attached to the middle pillar, left hand
s
ide, gives a reminder of this.

Snow chains
The system does not have to be r einitialised after fitting or removing
sn
ow
c
hains. Before
doing anything to the system,
t
he pressures of the four tyres must be
c
hecked and the system reinitialised.
The under-inflation alert is only
dependable if the system has been
r
einitialised with all four tyres inflated to
the correct pressures.
Operating fault
The flashing and then fixed illumination of the u
nder-inflation w arning lam p a ccompanied b
y illumination of the Service warning lamp
i
ndicates a fault with the system.
In
this case, under-inflation monitoring of the
t
yres is no longer assured.
Have
the system checked by a CITROËN
d
ealer or a qualified workshop.

Tyre under-inflation
detection
After repair of the tyre, the warning lamp will remain on until the system is

Should
the pressure of one or more
