Citroen C3: Under-inflation detection / Under-inflation alert
This is signalled by the fixed
illumination
of this warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and, depending on equipment, the
display of a message.
- Reduce speed immediately, avoid excessive
steering movements and avoid sudden braking.
- Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so.
The loss of pressure
detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
- Using a compressor, such as the one in
the temporary puncture repair kit, check the
pressures of the four tyres when cold.
- If it is not possible to make this check
immediately, drive carefully at reduced speed.
- In the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel
(depending on equipment).
The alert is kept active
until the system is
reinitialised.
This system automatically checks the pressures
of the tyres while driving.
It compares the information given by the wheel
speed sensors with reference values, which
must be reinitialised every time the tyre
pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed...
Reinitialisation
The system must be reinitialised after any
adjustment to the pressure of one or more tyres,
and after changing one or more wheels.
Before reinitialising the
system, make
sure that the pressures of the four tyres
are correct for the conditions of use of the
vehicle and conform to the values written on
the tyre pressure label...

USB sockets
Depending on equipment, for more information
on the USB sockets compatible with the
CarPlay®, MirrorLinkTM or Android Auto
applications, refer to the "Ease of use and
comfort" section.
The synchronisation of a
smartphone
allows users to display applications
adapted to the CarPlay®, MirrorLinkTM or
Android Auto technology of the smartphone
on the vehicle screen...
(Depending on version.)
On versions fitted with an electric oil level
indicator, the engine oil level status is displayed
on the instrument panel for a few seconds upon
switching the ignition on, after the servicing
information.
The level read will only be
correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and the engine
has been off for more than 30 minutes...
