Maximum mileage before tyre replacement
is 80 km.
Avoid hard driving such as sudden braking
or turning.
SST tyres must be replaced if they are

The tyre pressure monitoring system TPMS
(Tyre Pressure Monitoring System)

warns
the driver when the pressure is too low in one
or more of the car's tyres and indicates the
tyre to which it applies.
Yellow is shown at the first indication of low
tyre pressure, stop and check the tyre pres-
sure as soon as possible.
Red indicates a much lower pressure than
recommended, stop and rectify the tyre pres-
sure immediately.
If a message for low tyre pressure is shown in
the display:
1. Check the tyre pressure on the tyre in
question.
2. Inflate the tyre(s) to the correct pressure.
3. Drive at least at 30 km/h for several
minutes and check that the message dis-
appears.

The TM (Tyre Monitor) system senses the
rotation speed of the tyres in order to deter-
mine whether they have the correct tyre pres-
sure. If the pressure is too low, the tyre's
diameter is changed and, as a result, so is the
rotation speed. By comparing the tyres with
each other the system can determine whether
one or more tyres have pressure that is too
low.
Messages
If the tyre pressure is too low then a warning
lamp (

ment panel and one of the following mes-
