TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING
SYSTEM - T.P.M.S.
(where provided)

The car can be equipped with the T.P.M.S.
(Tyre Pressure Monitoring System). This
system consists of a radio-frequency sen-
sor, installed on each wheel (on the rim
inside the tyre) that sends pressure infor-
mation to the control unit.

IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT 
THE T.P.M.S. SYSTEM

Failure indications will not be stored and
therefore will not be displayed when turn-
ing the engine off and on again. If failure
persists, the control unit will send warn-
ing indications to the instrument panel on-
ly after a few seconds when the car is
moving.

IMPORTANT Strong radio- frequency
noises could inhibit regular operation of
the T.P.M.S. system. This condition is in-
dicated by a dedicated message on the dis-
play that will disappear automatically as
soon as radio-frequency noises will stop
to disturb the system.

Pay the utmost attention
when checking or inflating

tyres. Excessive pressure impairs road
holding, increases suspension and
wheel stress and causes abnormal
tyre wear.

WARNING

Tyre pressure should be
checked with tyres rested

and cold. Should it become necessary
for whatever reason to check pressure
with hot tyres, do not reduce pressure
although it is higher than the pre-
scribed value but repeat the check
when tyres are cold.

WARNING

The T.P.M.S. system helps
the driver to monitor tyre

pressure since the driver is the always
responsible for proper inflation pres-
sure of tyres and spare wheel (see
paragraph “Wheels” in section “Car
Maintenance”).

WARNING

T.P.M.S. system cannot indi-
cate sudden tyre pressure

drops (e.g.: tyre burst). In this event,
brake the car cautiously and avoid
sudden steering.
