lose pressure.
The system can be identified by the

label in the vehicle.
Operating principle
This system detects a loss of pressure
in one of the tyres by measuring the
wheel speed while driving.
The warning light

comes on
and stays on to alert the driver in the
event of insufficient pressure (deflated
or punctured wheel).
