Practical tips

Tyre monitor system

Fig. 298 Centre console: tyre pressure loss in-

dicator button.

The tyre monitor indicator compares wheel

revolutions and, with this information, the

tread of each wheel using the ABS sensors.

The tyre monitor indicator warns the driver if it

detects a considerable drop in tyre pressure

of one or several tyres while driving. Loss of

tyre pressure will be indicated by the indica-

tor  as well as an audible warning and

sometimes a text message on the instrument

panel display.

Wheel tread change

The wheel diameter changes when:

●Tyre pressure is changed manually.

●Tyre pressure is insufficient.

●The tyre structure is damaged.

●The vehicle is unbalanced because of a

load.

●The wheels on an axle are subject to a

heavier load (e.g. with a heavy load).

●The vehicle is fitted with snow chains.

●The temporary spare wheel is fitted.

●The wheel on one axle is changed.

There may be a delay in the reaction of the

tyre  monitoring indicator or it may not indi-

cate anything under certain circumstances

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

paved roads, or when driving with snow

chains).

Calibrating the tyre monitoring indicator

After changing the tyre pressure or replacing

one or more wheels, the tyre monitoring indi-

cator must be recalibrated. Do the same, for

example, when the front and rear wheels are

swapped.

●Switch the ignition on.

●Press and hold down the   ››› Fig. 298

button until an audible signal is heard.

When driving, the system self-calibrates the

tyre pressure provided by the driver and the

wheels fitted. After a long journey with varied

speeds the programmed values are collected

and monitored.

With the wheels under very heavy loads, the

tyre pressure must be increased to the total

recommended tyre pressure before calibra-

tion ››› Fig. 295.

If the tyre monitor system button is pressed

down, the new tyre pressures are confirmed.

WARNING

When the tyres are inflated at different

pressures or at a pressure that is too low

then a tyre may be damaged resulting in a

loss of control of the vehicle and a serious

or fatal accident.

●If the lamp  lights up, reduce speed im-

mediately and avoid any sudden turning or

braking manoeuvre. Stop when possible,

and check the tyre pressure and status.

●The tyre monitoring system can only op-

erate correctly if all of the tyres are infla-

ted to the correct pressure when cold.

●If a tyre has not been punctured and it

does not have to be changed immediately,

drive to the nearest specialised workshop

at a moderate speed and have the tyre

checked and inflated to the correct pres-

sure.

WARNING

Incorrect use of the tyre monitoring indica-

tor button could result in the indicator giv-

ing erroneous messages or prevented from

indicating the danger caused by a defec-

tive tyre ››› Fig. 298.
