Flat Tire Monitor

Initializing the system

Initializing is necessary to familiarize the

system with the correct tire inflation

pressure.

Repeat this process after any changes

in tire inflation pressure, tire replace-

ment or rotation.

1. Check the tire inflation pressure in all

the tires, comparing them with the

inflation pressure table (page 25),

and adjusting their pressure if neces-

sary

2. Turn the ignition key to position 2

3. Press button as long as you need to

until the indicator lamp in the instru-

ment cluster lights up. After a little

while, the indicator lamp will go out

by itself

4. After a few minutes, the Flat Tire

Monitor will accept the current infla-

tion pressure as the value to be

measured against, and from that

point on, can detect and report a flat

tire.

Activating/deactivating the

system

The system is automatically activated in

ignition key position 2 and conse-

quently is on whenever the vehicle is

operated.

To deactivate the system, tap the

button, the indicator lamp will light up

yellow.

To activate the system, tap the button

again; the indicator lamp goes out.

Deactivate the system when snow

chains are mounted, since false warn-

ings and undetected losses in pressure

are possible under these kinds of

conditions.
