Tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS)
Prior to every time the vehicle is to be driven,
each tyre should be checked when cold and
inflated/deflated to the inflation pressure
recommended on the tyre pressure label. (If
your vehicle has tyres of a different size than
the size indicated on the tyre pressure label,
you should determine the proper inflation
pressure for those tyres).
In certain circumstances it is possible that
the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
pressure warning will display without the
loss of air from the tyre. This may be due to
temperature variations between the
locations where the tyre pressure was set
and where the vehicle is driven. For example
setting pressures in an air conditioned or
heated garage and then driving the vehicle
outside may induce a tyre pressure warning
after a short period of driving. The warning
may also display when extreme ambient
temperature variations occur or during
seasonal temperature changes.
WARNING: Never ignore a tyre
pressure warning. Check tyre
pressures immediately and if
necessary contact your McLaren
retailer.
Tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
overview
The tyre pressure monitoring system warns
you when the pressure drops or the
temperature increases above an acceptable
level in one or more of the tyres.
The system monitors the tyre pressures and
temperatures in each tyre using sensors
located in each tyre valve and a receiver
located within the vehicle. Communication
between the sensors and the receiver is via
radio frequency (RF) signals.
NOTE: The tyre pressure monitoring
system can suffer interference if you
are operating radio transmitting
equipment (e.g. radio headphones,
two-way radios) in or near the vehicle.
NOTE: The tyre pressure monitoring
system will begin transmitting once
the vehicle is travelling over 6 mph (10
km/h), there will be a delay of up to 2
minutes before this information is
displayed on the Driver Display.
Tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
operation
If a low or high tyre pressure or high
tyre temperature is detected, the tyre
pressure monitoring system warning light
will illuminate along with an associated error
message on the Driver Display.
Stop the vehicle as soon as possible, check
all your tyres and inflate them to the
recommended pressure, see Tyre pressures,
page 6.33. The warning light will be
extinguished once the tyres have been
inflated to the correct pressure.
