inflation pressure must be adjusted until
it reaches the pressure prescribed for
cold tyres. After the automatic update
of the system, the tyre pressure control
warning light switches off. You may
need to drive the vehicle for about
20 minutes at a speed higher than
20 km/h to allow the TPMS to receive
this information.
NOTE
The TPMS does not replace the
normal tyre maintenance service and
does not indicate any fault in a tyre.
Therefore, the TPMS should not be
used as pressure switch while adjusting
the tyre inflation pressure.
Driving with insufficient tyre pressure
causes their overheating and can result
in tyre failure. The low inflation pressure
reduces fuel efficiency and tyre tread
life and may also affect handling and
braking performance of the vehicle.
The TPMS does not replace the
correct tyre maintenance. It is up to
the driver to maintain the correct
tyre pressure level measuring it with
a suitable pressure switch. This is
necessary even if the decrease in the
inflation pressure value does not cause
the tyre pressure control warning light
to switch on.
The TPMS warns the driver of any
condition of insufficient tyre pressure.
If this drops below the insufficient
pressure limit for any reason including
low temperature and normal pressure
loss of the tyre.
The seasonal temperature changes
affect tyre pressure.
The TPMS uses wireless devices with
electronic sensors mounted on the
wheel rims to constantly monitor the
value of tyre pressure. The sensors
mounted on each wheel as part of the
valve stem transmit various information
of the tyres to the receiver module, in
order to calculate the pressure.
WARNING Monitoring and maintaining
the correct pressure in all four tyres are
particularly important.
Tyre pressure monitoring system
low pressure warnings
The system warns the driver if one or
more tyres are flat by turning on the
warning light on the instrument panel
(together with a warning message and
an acoustic warning).
In this case, stop the vehicle as
soon as possible, check the inflation
pressure of each tyre and inflate
to the cold tyre pressure value
prescribed for the vehicle. The system
will automatically update and after
receiving the tyre pressure update the
tyre pressure control warning light
switches off. You may need to drive
the vehicle for about 20 minutes at a
speed higher than 20 km/h to allow the
system to receive this information.
TPMS operation faults
The system fault is indicated by the
corresponding warning light , which
first flashes for 75 seconds and then
stays on continuously. This can occur
in any of the following situations:
interference caused by electronic
devices or radio frequency emissions
similar to those of the TPMS sensors.
Application of tinted films which
interfere with the signals of the radio
waves.
Presence of snow or ice on the
wheels or the wheel arches.
Use of snow chains.
Use of wheels/tyres not equipped
with TPMS sensors.
The spare wheel is not equipped
with the tyre pressure control sensor.
Therefore, the tyre pressure is not
controlled by the system.
If the spare wheel replaces a
tyre with a pressure lower than the
insufficient pressure limit, an acoustic
warning will be emitted and the
warning light will turn on at the next
start-up.
When the original tyres is repaired
or replaced and it is mounted back on
the vehicle to replace the spare wheel,
the TPMS will update automatically
