TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
Sensors check the tyre pressure dur-
ing driving and trigger a warning in the
event of malfunction.
Flat tyre Instrument panel display
warning light.
This is accompanied by the audible signal
and the message on the multi-function
display locating the wheel concerned.
If this warning light comes on, have
the tyre pressure checked as soon as
possible.
Puncture
This warning light, accompanied by
the audible signal and the message on
the multi-function display locating the
wheel concerned, is followed by illumi-
nation of the "STOP" warning light. Stop immediately, avoiding any sud-
den movement of the steering wheel
and the brakes.
Change the damaged wheel (punc-
tured or very defl ated tyre), and have
the tyre pressure checked as soon as
possible.
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
Instrument panel display
warning light. All repairs and changing of
tyres on a wheel fi tted with this
system must be carried out by
a PEUGEOT dealer.
If, when changing a tyre, you install a
wheel which is not detected by your
vehicle, you must have the system
reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer.
The tyre under-infl ation detection sys-
tem is an aid to driving which does not
replace the need for the driver to be
vigilant or to drive responsibly.
This system does not eliminate
the need to have the tyre pressure
checked regularly (see manufacturer's
label on the door pillar) to ensure that
the optimum dynamic performance
of the vehicle is maintained and pre-
vent premature wear of the tyres, par-
ticularly in arduous driving conditions
(heavy load, high speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Remem-
ber to check the pressure of the spare
wheel.
The tyre under-infl ation detection sys-
tem may experience temporary inter-
ference due to radioelectric emissions
on a frequency close to that used by
the system.

Note : this message is also
displayed when one of the
wheels is away from the ve-
hicle (being repaired) or when
one or more wheels without a
sensor are fi tted.
Instrument panel display
warning light.
This is accompanied by the audible
signal and the message on the multi-
function display which indicates that
under-infl ation detection is absent
from one (or several) wheel(s) or that
there is a fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace
the faulty sensor(s).

1010PRACTICAL INFORMATION
113
Fitting a wheel

 Position the wheel.

 Tighten the bolts by hand.

 Partly tighten the bolts using the
wheelbrace.

 Fold the jack 2 and remove it.

 Fully tighten the bolts using the
wheelbrace 1 .

 For vehicles with steel wheels,
refi t the wheel trim starting by plac-
ing its notch facing the valve and
press with the palm of the hand.

 For vehicles with alloy wheels, refi t
the covers.

 Put the tool holder back in position.
This helps to keep the boot fl oor in
its correct position, to prevent any
deformation of the fl oor when loaded.

 Tighten the spare wheel securing
strap to prevent noise and for your
safety in the event of impact. Punctured tyre warning
light
Information on the instrument
panel:

Reminder: for your safety, always
change a wheel:
- on level, stable, non-slippery ground,
- with the handbrake applied,
-
with fi rst or reverse gear engaged (po-
sition P for the automatic gearbox),
- never go underneath a vehicle
which is supported only by a jack. Tyre under-infl ation detection
system warning light
These original wheels are fi tted with a
pressure sensor (see paragraph "Tyre
under-infl ation detection"). The alarm
which detects the removal or absence
of a wheel fi tted with the indicator
sensor signals the anomaly. Have
the wheel repaired and checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
After changing the wheel:
- have the tightening of the bolts and
the tyre pressure of the spare wheel
checked as soon as possible.
- have the punctured wheel repaired and refi t it to the vehicle as soon as
possible.
- have the spare wheel checked and replace it in its boot recess.
Recommendations when using the
temporary spare wheel *
Your vehicle may be equipped with a
spare wheel with a different rim to that
of the standard wheel.
After use, replace it as soon as possible.
Follow the recommendations below
to avoid any alteration in vehicle han-
dling:
-
do not drive above 50 mph (80 km/h) ,

- do not fi t a wheel trim,
- drive carefully,
- check the infl ation pressure indi- cated on the label.
* According to version and country.
