Renault Espace - Tyre Pressure Monitoring System

2.23
TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (1/3)
If the vehicle is equipped with the func-
tion, this system monitors the tyre pres-
sure.
Operating principle
Each wheel (except for the emergency
spare wheel) has a sensor in the infla-
tion valve which periodically measures
the tyre pressure.
The system displays the current pres-
sures on the instrument panel 1 and
alerts the driver in the event of insuffi-
cient pressure.
Resetting the standard level
for the tyre pressures
This should be done:
– 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.).

With the ignition on:
– make short presses on the con-
trol 2 to select the tyre pressure dis-
play (see “On-board Computer” in
Section 1);
– press and hold (around 3 seconds)
the button 2 to launch the reset.
Flashing tyres followed by the mes-
sage “Learning TP initiated” then
“Tyres location in progress” means
that the request to learn the refer-
ence pressures has been taken into
account;
– reset can take several minutes of
driving.
If the resetting is followed by short
trips, the message “Tyres location in
progress” can remain displayed after
successive restarts.
Note: The standard tyre pressure
cannot be less than that recommended
and indicated on the door frame.

Resetting can also be done from the multifunction screen 3. Select the menu
“Vehicle”, “Tyre pressure”.
