Seat Leon >> Tyre pressure control system: carry out basic adjustments
NOTICE The basic adjustment of the tyre control indicator should only be carried out after correcting the inflation pressure values of the tyres.
If no pressure loss and tyre damage are found after a tyre pressure warning, the "false alarm" can be rectified by a basic setting.
The tyre control system indicator uses the ABS sensors to compare the number of rotations, and with it the perimeter of the tread surface of each of the wheels. The tyre control system indicator will light up when the tread surface perimeter of one of the wheels changes.
The tread surface perimeter changes when:
- The pressure in a tyre is insufficient
- the tyre has damage to its surface
- the vehicle is loaded on only one side
- the wheels of one axle suffer greater wear, for example when towing a trailer or going up or down long slopes
- the snow chains are attached
- the emergency wheel is fitted
- one wheel is changed on an axle
The tyre pressure monitoring warning lamp has a yellow lamp -1- in the dash panel insert.
Carry out basic adjustment: Vehicles with multifunction touchscreen
- Switch on the ignition.
- Switch on the multi-functional touchscreen -1-.
- Press the "CAR" button.
- Press "SETTINGS" on the touchscreen.
- Push "Tyres" on the touchscreen.
- Press "Calibrate" on the touchscreen.
The changes carried out are then saved automatically when closing the menu.
Carry out basic adjustment: Vehicles without multifunction touchscreen
- Switch on the ignition.
- Press and hold the SET button in the glove compartment until an acoustic signal sounds.
The acoustic signal confirms the process for carrying out the basic setting.
The system calibrates itself to the tyre pressure and tyres installed during normal driving.
