Tyre pressure monitoring system

If the vehicle is equipped with the function, this system monitors the tyre pressure.

Operating principle

Each wheel (except for the emergency spare wheel) has a sensor in the inflation valve which periodically measures the tyre pressure.

The system displays the current pressures on the instrument panel 1 and alerts the driver in the event of insufficient pressure.

Resetting the standard level for the tyre pressures

This should be performed:

when the standard tyre pressure needs to be changed to adapt to usage conditions (empty, carrying a load, motorway driving, etc.);
after swapping a wheel (however, this practice is not recommended);
after changing a wheel.

It should always be done after checking the tyre pressure of all four tyres when cold.

Tyre pressures must correspond to the current usage of the vehicle (empty, carrying a load, motorway driving, etc.).

Tip

If the wheels are swapped, the system must be reinitialised. Consult an approved Dealer.

Tip

If the vehicle is equipped with a navigation system, depending on the vehicle, the reset procedure may also be carried out using the multimedia screen: please see the equipment instructions.

Resetting procedure via the instrument panel 1

Ignition on, vehicle stopped:

briefly press switch 2 or 3 to reach the "RESET TPMS" screen;
press and hold (around 3 seconds) on the control 4 to launch the reset. The flashing tyres symbol followed by the "Learning Tyre Pressures" message indicates that the request to reset the tyre pressure has been acknowledged.

Reset can take several minutes of driving.

If the reset is followed by short journeys, the display of step 3 in the table on the following page may remain displayed after several successive restarts.

Note: the tyre pressure reference value cannot be less than that recommended and indicated on the door frame.

Resetting procedure via the multimedia screen 5

The resetting procedure must be carried out while the vehicle is stationary and the ignition is switched on.

Please refer to the multimedia instructions for further information.

WARNING

For your safety, the warning light

requires you to stop immediately as soon as traffic conditions allow.

Possible messages

The table below shows the possible messages related to the tyre resetting procedure.

Steps	Displays (depending on the vehicle)	Messages	Readings
1		Tyre pressure init. long press	With the ignition on and the vehicle stationary, start resetting the pressure of all four tyres by pressing and holding the switch 4OK.
2		Learning Tyre Pressures	The "---" symbols in front of each wheel will flash to indicate that the system has registered the tyre pressure reset for all four wheels.
3			The "---" symbols in front of each wheel will remain lit. This system resets the tyre pressure of all four tyres. You can now drive. Note: during the reset, tyre pressure monitoring remains in operation.
4			The pressure value of the four tyres is displayed: the resetting procedure is complete and successful.

Readjustment of tyre pressures

The pressure of the four tyres must be set when cold (refer to the label located on the edge of the driver's door). If the tyre pressures cannot be checked when they are cold, the recommended pressures should be increased by 0.2 to 0.3 bar (3 PSI).

Never deflate a hot tyre.

Emergency spare wheel

If the vehicle is equipped with an emergency spare wheel, it will not have a sensor.

WARNING

This function is an additional driving aid.

The function does not take the place of the driver. It cannot, therefore, under any circumstances replace the vigilance or the responsibility of the driver. Check the tyre pressures, including the emergency spare wheel, once a month.

Replacing wheels/tyres

This system requires specific equipment (wheels, tyres, wheel rims, etc.) .

Contact an approved dealer to replace the tyres and to find out about accessories compatible with the system that are available from the brand's network: using any other accessory could affect the correct operation of the system.

WARNING

Changing a wheel

The system may take several minutes depending on use for the new wheel positions and pressures to be recognised; check the tyre pressures after all operations.

Tyre repair product and inflation kit

Because the valves are specially designed, only use equipment approved by the approved network. Please see the paragraph on TYRE INFLATION KIT.

Tyre pressure faults

The table lists the warning messages which appear on the instrument panel 1 when the system detects a tyre pressure fault.

Possible messages

The information on the instrument panel signals any potential tyre pressure faults (e.g. deflated or punctured tyre). The

warning light requires that, for your own safety, you stop the vehicle as soon as traffic conditions allow.

Indicator lights	Messages	Displays (depending on the vehicle)	Readings
lights up and stays on	Adjust Tyre Pressure		The wheel and associated pressure value are displayed in yellow. This indicates that tyre under-inflation has been detected. Check and adjust the pressure of the four tyres then reset the system.
+ light up and stay on	Puncture		The wheel and associated pressure value are displayed in red. This indicates that the tyre concerned is punctured or severely underinflated. Adjust the pressure of the four tyres while cold and reset the system if the tyre is deflated. Replace the tyre (or have it replaced) if it is punctured.
flashes, then stays on, along with the warning light	Check Tyre Pressure Sensors		One or more wheels are no longer displayed. This indicates that at least one wheel is not fitted with a sensor (e.g. emergency spare wheel) or that the sensor is faulty. Consult an approved Dealer.
lights up and stays on			This indicates that the system has not been able to determine the pressure of each tyre. This may be caused by the use of a sensor not recommended by an approved dealer. The tyre pressure sensor monitoring system remains in operation.
