Operation

●If the warning lamp  lights up, stop im-

mediately and check the tyres.

●If the tyres are inflated at different pres-

sures or if a tyre pressure is too low, this will

increase tyre wear, negatively affecting vehi-

cle stability and increasing braking distan-

ces.

●If tyres are inflated at different pressures or

a tyre pressure is too low, a tyre may be dam-

aged and burst resulting in a loss of control

of the vehicle.

●The driver is responsible for ensuring that

all of the vehicle tyres are correctly inflated

to the right pressure. The recommended tyre

pressure is indicated on the label ››› Fig. 252.

●The tyre monitoring system can only oper-

ate correctly if all of the tyres are inflated to

the correct pressure when cold.

●Driving with tyres at the wrong pressure

can damage them and result in an accident.

Ensure that the tyre pressures of all the tyres

correspond to the vehicle load.

●Before starting a journey, always inflate

tyres to the correct pressure.

●If tyre pressure is too low then the tyre is

subject to greater forces and it may be heated

to such an extent that the tread can rupture

and the tyre will burst.

●With an overloaded vehicle at high speed,

the tyres can overheat and burst resulting in

a loss of vehicle control.

●Tyre pressures which are too high or too

low reduce the useful life of the tyre, affect-

ing vehicle performance.

●If a tyre has not been “punctured” and does

not have to be changed immediately, drive to

the nearest specialised workshop at a moder-

ate speed and have the tyre checked and in-

flated to the correct pressure.

Tyre monitoring indicator

Fig. 229 Detailed view of the centre console:

button for the tyre pressure monitoring indi-

cator

The tyre monitor indicator compares wheel

revolutions and, with this information, the

tread of each wheel using the ABS sensors. If

the tread of a wheel is changed, the tyre

monitoring indicator will indicate as such on

the instrument panel. The wheel tread

changes when:

●Tyre pressure is insufficient

●Tyre structure is damaged

●The vehicle is unbalanced because of a

load

●If the wheels on an axle are subject to a

heavier load (e.g. when towing a trailer).

●The vehicle is fitted with snow chains

●The wheel on one axle is changed

There may be a delay in the reaction of the

tyre monitoring indicator  or it may not in-

dicate anything under certain circumstances

(e.g. sports driving, snow-covered or un-

paved roads).

Adaptation of the tyre monitoring indicator

On adjusting tyre pressure or changing one

or more wheels, the ››› Fig. 229 button on the

tyre monitoring indicator must be kept press-

ed down, with the ignition on, until an audi-

ble warning is heard. Do the same, for exam-

ple, when the front and rear wheels are swap-

ped ››› Fig. 251.

If the wheels are subjected to an excessive

load (towing a trailer, heavy load), the tyre

pressure must be increased to the maximum

recommended pressure ››› page 287. Press

the tyre monitoring indicator button to con-

firm the new pressure value.

Note

An incorrect warning may be given when

snow chains are in use because the chains in-

crease the tread of the wheel.
