Ty r e u n d e r - i nfl ation 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 a
each tyres (except the spare wheel).
The system triggers an alert if a drop in
pressure is detected in one or more tyres.
The tyre under-inflation detection system is
an aid to driving which does not replace the
need for the driver to be vigilant or to drive
responsibly.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The tyre pressures for your vehicle
can be found on the tyre pressure
label (see the "Identification markings"
section).
The tyre pressures must be checked
when 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.
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 affects road holding,
extends braking distances and causes
premature tyre wear, particularly under
arduous conditions (vehicle loaded,
high speed, long journey).

215Driving
Under-inflation alert
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 fitted with a sensor.
The alert is maintained until the tyre
or tyres concerned is reinflated or
repaired.
The aler t is given by the fixed illumination
of this warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal, and depending on
equipment, the display of a message.
In the event of a problem on one of the tyres,
the symbol or the message appears, according
to equipment, to identify it.
Reduce speed, avoid sudden steering
movements or harsh brake applications.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (according to equipment),
or
if you have a compressor, the one in the
temporary puncture repair kit for example,
check the four tyre pressures when cold,
or
if it is not possible to check the tyre
pressures at the time, drive carefully at
reduced speed.
Operating fault
The flashing and then fixed illumination
of the under-inflation warning lamp
accompanied by the illumination of the
"ser vice" warning lamp indicates a fault
with the system.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is
not assured.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.

281Practical information
Towing the vehicle
Procedure for having your vehicle towed or for towing another vehicle using a removable towing eye.
The towing eye is installed in the boot under
the floor.
To gain access to it:

raise the floor,
secure it by hooking its cord on the hook on
the rear parcel shelf support,
remove the towing eye from the holder.
Access to the tools
General recommendations
Observe the legislation in force in your
country.
Ensure that the weight of the towing
vehicle is higher than that of the towed
vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel
of the towed vehicle and must have a
valid driving licence.
When towing a vehicle with all four
wheels on the ground, always use an
approved towing bar; rope and straps
are prohibited.
When towing a vehicle with the engine
off, there is no longer any power
assistance for braking or steering. In the following cases, you must always call
on a professional recovery ser vice:
- vehicle broken down on a motor way or
fast road,
- 4 wheel drive vehicle,
- when it is not possible to put the gearbox
into neutral, unlock the steering, or
release the parking brake,
- towing with only two wheels on the
ground,
- where there is no approved towing bar
available...
