winter tyres Lancia Delta 2009 Owner handbook (in English)

116GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CAR
Replacing the normal tyres with winter tyres
and vice versa requires the inspection of the
T.P.M.S. system, which should only be car-
ried out by a Lancia Dealership.
The T.P.M.S. system requires the use of spe-
cific equipment. Contact a Lancia Dealer-
ship to find out which accessories are com-
patible with the system (wheels, hub caps etc.). The
use of other accessories may affect the normal op-
eration of the system.
Tyre inflation pressure may vary according
to outdoor temperature. The T.P.M.S. system
may temporarily indicate insufficient pres-
sure. In this case check the tyre inflation pressure
with the tyres cold and, if necessary, top up the in-
flation pressure.
If the vehicle is fitted with a T.P.M.S, when
a tyre is removed, it is advisable to replace
the rubber gasket for the valve. Contact a
Lancia Dealership.
If the vehicle is fitted with a T.P.M.S., tyre
and wheel fitting/removal operations require
specific precautions. To avoid damaging or
fitting the sensors incorrectly, tyre and wheel fit-
ting/removal operations should only be carried out
by specialists. Contact a Lancia Dealership.
Particularly strong radio frequency interfer-
ence may cause the T.P.M.S. system to func-
tion incorrectly. This condition is indicated
to the driver by a warning light or symbol
nlight-
ing up on the display together with a dedicated mes-
sage. The warning message will go off automati-
cally as soon as the radio-frequency noise ceases to
disturb the system.
