Fig. 274 button, with the
ignition on, until an acoustic signal is heard.
If the wheels are under excessive load (for ex-
ample, driving with a trailer or heavy load),
the tyre pressure must be increased to the
recommended value for a full load (see the
sticker on the back of the left front door
frame). If the tyre monitor system button is
pressed down, the new tyre pressures are
confirmed.
WARNING
●
When the tyre pr
essure control lamp
lights up, reduce speed immediately and
avoid any sudden turning or braking ma-
noeuvre. Stop when possible, and check
the tyre pressure and status.
●
The driver is responsibl
e for maintaining
correct tyre pressures. For this reason, tyre
pressure must be regularly checked.
●
Under certain circumstances (e.g. when
driving in a sporty manner, in winter condi-
tions or on a dirt track) the tyre control
lamp may light up belatedly or may func-
tion incorrectly.
Note
If the battery is disconnected, the yellow
w
arning lamp
lights up after turning the
ignition on. This should turn off after a brief
journey.
