They indicate that at least one wheel
is punctured or severely underinfla-
ted. Replace it or contact an authorised
dealer if it is punctured. Top up the tyre
pressure if the wheel is deflated.
Warning light ® re-
quires you to stop immedi-
ately, for your own safety,
as soon as traffic conditions
allow.
The sudden loss of pressure in a
tyre (burst tyre, etc.) cannot be de-
tected by the system.
CHECK TYRE SENSORS
The warning light
 flashes for
several seconds, then stays on and,
depending on the vehicle, together
with the message “CHECK TYRE
SENSORS”.
This message is accompanied by the
warning light
©.
They indicate that at least one tyre is
not fitted with sensors (e.g. emergency
spare wheel). In other cases, contact
an authorised dealer.
SYSTEM B (cntd.)
Display
The display 2 on the instrument panel
informs you of any tyre pressure faults
(flat tyre, punctured tyre, etc.).
CHECK TYRE PRESSURES
The warning light
 stays on
and, depending on the vehicle, along
with the message “CHECK TYRE
PRESSURES”.
These indicate that at least one tyre is
flat.
Check and, if necessary, readjust the
pressures of the four wheels when cold.
The warning light
 goes off after a
few minutes’ driving.

2.25
Replacing wheels/tyres
This system requires specific equip-
ment (wheels, tyres, hubcaps, etc.).
Please see the information on “Tyres”
in Section 5.
Contact an approved Dealer to fit new
tyres and to find out about available ac-
cessories compatible with the system
and available from your dealer network:
the use of any other accessory could
affect the correct operation of the
system or damage a sensor.
Emergency spare wheel
If the vehicle is equipped with an emer-
gency spare wheel, it will not have a
sensor. When it is fitted on the vehi-
cle, the warning light
 flashes
for several seconds, then stays on, to-
gether with the warning light
©.
Depending on the vehicle, the message
“CHECK TYRE SENSORS” appears
on the instrument panel.
SYSTEM B (cntd.)
Readjustment of tyre pressures
The tyre pressures must be adjusted
when cold (please refer to the label lo-
cated on the edge of the driver’s door).
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, the recom-
mended pressures must be increased
by 0.2 to 0.3 bar (3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.

Tyre repair product and inflation kit
Because the valves are specially desi-
gned, only use equipment approved by

Label A
Open the driver’s door to read it.
Tyre pressures should be checked
when the tyres are cold.
If the tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, increase the
pressures from 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre. Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure
loss warning system
If under-inflated (puncture, low pres-
sure, etc.), the warning light

lights up on the instrument panel. See
“Tyre pressure loss warning” in
Section 2.
Vehicle used fully laden
(Maximum Permissible
All-up Weight) and
towing a trailer
The maximum speed must be lim-
ited to 60 mph (100 km/h) and the
tyre pressure increased by 0.2 bar.
Refer to the information on “Weights”
in Section 6.
Risk of tyre blowouts.

Tyre dimensions
The following dimensions are specific
to the vehicle:
– 185/70 R 14 88 T;
– 195/65 R 15 91 T;
– 195/65 R 15 95 T;

Tyre safety and use of snow chains
Refer to the information on “Tyres” in
Section 5 for the servicing conditions
and, depending on the version, the use
of chains.
For your safety, please re-
spect the speed limit.
When they need to be re-
placed, only tyres of the
same make, size, type and profile
should be used on a single axle.
They must: either have a load ca-
pacity and speed rating at least
equal to those of the original
tyres, or conform to those recom-
mended by an authorised dealer.
Failure to heed these instructions
could endanger your safety and
affect your vehicle’s roadworthi-
ness.
Risk of loss of control of the ve-
hicle.

PUNCTURE, EMERGENCY SPARE WHEEL (1/2)
To store the wheel in the cage
– Make sure the wheel is correctly po-sitioned in the cage, valve facing
down.
– Reposition the cage using handle 3
and retighten the nut using span-
ner 1 to refit the assembly.
– Make sure it is correctly locked.

In the event of a puncture, there is
either an emergency spare wheel or
tyre inflation kit available, depending on
the vehicle (refer to the information in
the following pages).
Emergency spare wheel 2
This is stored in cage 4 under the floor
at the rear of the vehicle.
To access the emergency spare
wheel
– Open the tailgate.
– Undo the nut with the wheelbrace 1.
– Detach the cage using handle 3.
– Release the emergency spare wheel.
Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure
loss warning system
If under-inflated (puncture, low pres-
sure, etc.), the warning light

lights up on the instrument panel. See
“Tyre pressure loss warning” in
Section 2.
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.

5.3
PUNCTURE, EMERGENCY SPARE WHEEL (2/2)
If the emergency spare wheel has been stored for several years, have it \
checked by your Dealer to ensure that it is
safe to use.
Vehicle fitted with an emergency spare wheel that differs from the other \
wheels:
– Never fit more than one emergency spare wheel to the same vehicle.
– As the punctured wheel is wider than the emergency spare wheel, the vehi\
cle’s ground clearance is reduced.
– Replace the emergency spare wheel as soon as possible with a wheel ident\
ical to the original one.
– If wheel bolts are supplied with the emergency spare wheel, it is impera\
tive that they are used and that they are used for th e
emergency spare wheel only: refer to the label affixed to the emergency spare wheel.
– When this is fitted to the vehicle, which must only be a temporary measu\
re, the driving speed must not exceed the speed indicated on the label on the wheel.
– Fitting an emergency spare wheel may alter the way the vehicle usually r\
uns. Avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration and reduce your speed when cornering.
– If you need to use snow chains, fit the emergency spare wheel to the rea\
r axle and check the tyre pressure.
– The warning light
 on the instrument panel flashes for several seconds, then stays on.

5.5
TYRE INFLATION KIT (2/4)
Depending on the vehicle, in the event
of a puncture, use the kit located in the
glove box or in the luggage compart-
ment, in rear wheel arch C or D.
Before using this kit, park
the vehicle at a sufficient
distance from traffic, switch
on the hazard warning
lights, apply the handbrake, ask all
passengers to leave the vehicle and
keep them away from traffic.
If the vehicle is parked on the hard
shoulder, you must warn other road
users of your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.

– after a maximum of 15 minutes, stop inflating and read the pressure
(on the pressure gauge 2).
Note: while the bottle is emptying
(approximately 30 seconds), the
pressure gauge 2 will indicate briefly
a pressure of 6 bar, then the pres-
sure drops;
– Adjust the pressure: to increase it, continue inflation with the kit. To
reduce it, press the button 1.
If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is
not reached after 15 minutes, repair
is not possible; do not drive the ve-
hicle but contact an approved dealer.
Engine running, parking brake ap-
plied:
– Refer to the information on the infla- tion kit compressor and follow the in-
structions;
– inflate the tyre to the recommended pressure (please refer to the infor-
mation in the section on “Tyre pres-
sures”);
