or
F ifitisnotpossibletomakethischeck
immediately, drive carefully at reduced
speed.
The loss of pressure detected does not
alwayscausevisiblebulgingofthetyre.

The alert is maintained until the system
isreinitialised.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialisedafterfittingorremoving
snowchains.
Beforereinitialisingthesystem,ensure
that the pressures of the four tyres are
correct for the use of the vehicle and in
line with the recommendations on the
tyrepressurelabel.
The under-inflation alert can only
be relied on if the reinitialisation of
the system has been done with the
pressures in the four tyres correctly
adjusted.
The under-inflation detection system
doesnotgiveawarningifapressureis
incorrectatthetimeofreinitialisation.
