iTPMS System
(indirect Tyre
Pressure
Monitoring System)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
47)
RESET PROCEDURE
The iTPMS needs an initial “self-
learning” phase (with length depending
on the driving style and road
conditions: optimal conditions being
driving on a straight road at 80 km/h
for at least 20 minutes) which starts
when the Reset procedure is carried
out.
The Reset procedure must be carried
out:
❒ each time tyre pressure is
modified;
❒ when even only one tyre is
changed;
❒ when tyres are rotated/inverted;
❒ when the space-saver wheel is
fitted.
The ASR comes on automatically
whenever the engine is started. When
driving it is possible to deactivate and
then reactivate the ASR system by
pressing the button A fig. 45: the
system activation is signalled by the
LED on the same button switching on
and, on some versions, by a message
on the display.
❒ HBA (Hydraulic Brake Assist): it
operates automatically and
improves the braking capacity of the
vehicle during emergency braking.
