TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
System which automatically checks the
pressure of the tyres while driving.
All repairs and changing of
tyres on a wheel fi tted with this
system must be carried out by
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you install
a wheel which is not detected by
your vehicle (example: fi tting of snow
tyres), you must have the system re-
initialised by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.

This system does not avoid the
need to have the tyre pressures
checked regularly (refer to the
"Identifi cation markings" section) to en-
sure that the optimum dynamic perfor-
mance of the vehicle is maintained and
prevent premature wear of the tyres,
particularly in arduous driving conditions
(heavy load, high speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Remember to
check the pressure of the spare wheel.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system may experience temporary
interference due to electromagnetic
emissions on a frequency close to
that used by the system.

Sensors fi tted in each valve trigger a
warning in the event of malfunction
(speed above 12 mph (20 km/h)).

The spare wheel is not fi tted with a sensor.

This warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears in the multifunction screen,
accompanied by an audible signal,
to identify the wheel concerned.


)
Check the tyre pressures as soon
as possible.
This check must be carried out when
the tyres are cold.
Under-infl ated tyre The STOP
warning lamp
comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message in the multifunc-
tion screen identifying the
wheel concerned.


)
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so,
avoiding any sudden 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.

Puncture

The tyre under-infl ation detec-
tion system is an aid to driving
which does not replace the
need for the driver to be vigilant or to
drive responsibly.


Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
A message appears in the multifunc-
tion screen, accompanied by an audible
signal, to identify the wheel or wheels
which are not detected or to indicate a
fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop to replace the faulty
sensor(s).

This message is also dis-
played when one of the wheels
is away from the vehicle (being
repaired) or when one or more wheels
without a sensor are fi tted.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
183

)
Connect the compressor's electric
plug to the vehicle's 12 V socket.

)
Start the vehicle again and leave the
engine running.

)
Adjust the pressure using the com-
pressor (to infl ate: switch B
in po-
sition "I"
; to defl ate: switch B
in
position "O"
and press button C
), in
accordance with the vehicle's tyre
pressure label (located on the left
hand door aperture).

)
Turn the selector A
to the
"air" position.

)
Uncoil the black pipe H
fully.

)
Connect the black pipe to
the valve of the wheel.

)
Visit a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop as
soon as possible.
You must inform the technician that
you have used this kit. After inspec-
tion, the technician will inform you
whether the tyre can be repaired or
must be replaced.


2. INFLATION
A loss of pressure indicates that the
puncture has not been fully plugged;
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or qual-
ifi ed workshop for assistance.

)
Remove and stow the kit.

)
Drive at reduced speed (50 mph
[80 km/h] max) limiting the distance
travelled to approximately 120 miles
(200 km).
