Peugeot 5008 2009-2016 Owner's Manual Driving Tyre under-inflation detection

8Driving1835008_en_Chap08_conduite_ed01-2015Tyre under-inflation detectionSystem which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.The system continuously monitors the pressures of the four tyres, as soon as the vehicle is moving.A pressure sensor is located in the valve of each tyre (except the spare wheel).The system triggers an alert if a drop in pressure is detected in one or more tyres.This system does not avoid the need to check the tyre pressures regularly (including the spare wheel) and before a long journey.Driving with under-inflated tyres adversely affects road holding, extends braking distances and causes premature tyre wear, particularly under arduous conditions (vehicle loaded, high speed, long journey).The tyre pressures for your vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure label (see the "Identification markings" section).The tyre pressures must be checked when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or after driving for less then 6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed). Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the values indicated on the label.Driving with under-inflated tyres increases fuel consumption.The tyre under-inflation detection system is an aid to driving which does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Driving1845008_en_Chap08_conduite_ed01-2015The alert is given by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal, and depending on equipment, the display of a message.Under-inflation alertThe flashing and then fixed illumination of the under-inflation warning lamp accompanied by the illumination of the service warning lamp indicates a fault with the system.Operating faultIn the event of a problem on one of the tyres, the symbol or the message appears, according to equipment, to identify it.FReduce speed, avoid sudden steering movements or harsh brake applications.FStop as soon as it is safe to do so.The loss of pressure detected does not always lead to visible deformation of the tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check.The alert is maintained until the tyre or tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired or replaced.The spare wheel (space-saver type or a steel rim) does not have a sensor.This alert is also displayed when one or more wheels is not fitted with a sensor (for example, a space-saver or steel spare wheel).In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is not assured.Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshopto have the system checked or, following the repair of a puncture, to have the original wheel, equipped with a sensor, refitted.FIf you have a compressor (the one in the temporary puncture repair kit for example), check the four tyre pressures when cold.If it is not possible to check the tyre pressures at the time, drive carefully at reduced speed.orFIn the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel (according to equipment).Any tyre repair or replacement on a wheel fitted with this system must be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.If after changing a tyre, a wheel is not detected by your vehicle (fitting snow tyres for example), you must have the system reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
