Tyre under-inflation detection
System which automatically and continuously checks the pressure of the tyres while driving.
Sensors fitted in each valve trigger a warning in the event of problem (speed above 12 mph (20 km/h)).
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.
Under-inflated tyre
This warning lamp is displayed in the instrument panel and/or a message appears in the 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.
Puncture
The STOP warning lamp comes on and/or this warning lamp is displayed in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the 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.
Repair or change the damaged wheel (punctured or very deflated tyre), and have the tyre pressure checked as soon as possible.
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
This warning lamp is displayed on the instrument panel and/or a message appears in the screen, accompanied by an audible signal, to locate the wheel or wheels which are not detected or to indicate a malfunction of the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to replace the faulty sensor(s).
This message is also displayed
when one of the wheels is away from the vehicle (being repaired) or when one or
more wheels without a sensor are fitted.
If your vehicle is equipped with a spare wheel, this is not fitted with a sensor.
All repairs and changing of tyres on a wheel fitted with this system must be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you fi t a wheel which is not detected by your vehicle (example: fitting of snow tyres), you must have the system reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
This system does not avoid the need to have the tyre pressures checked regularly (refer to the "Identification markings" section) to ensure that the optimum dynamic performance 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-inflation detection system may experience temporary interference due to electro-magnetic emissions on a frequency close to that used by the system.
