TYRE PRESSURE SENSOR
The system is made up of:
- four pressure sensors built into the valves (one per
wheel); they transmit a radio frequency signal,
- four tyre pressure monitor receivers, for the purpose
of receiving and decoding the sensor signals and
transmitting them to the UCH,
- a computer that receives, decodes and processes information
from the receivers, and then determines
which message to display,
- a display integrated into the instrument panel.
Note:
The position of the sensor on each wheel is automatically
identified by the UCH computer. |
Composition of the pressure sensor:
- a conventional valve,
- a pressure sensor,
- a specific radio frequency transmitter,
- a non-removable battery.
Tyre pressure monitor:
Precautions for the repair
I - CLEANLINESS
Clean the bearing faces on the tyre pressure monitor
valve.
II - GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Do not swap the wheels if they have been removed.
WARNING
Hold the sensor in position on the wheel to prevent
it from turning during tightening. |
WARNING
To avoid any damage to the sensor, make sure the
tyre bead never presses on the sensor. |
