Tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM
TPMS provides a low pressure
warning and does not re-inflate your
tyres. Tyre pressures should be
checked regularly using an accurate
pressure gauge when the tyres are
cold.
TPMS can NOT register damage to a
tyre. Regularly check the condition of
your tyres, especially if the vehicle is
driven off-road.
When inflating tyres, care should be
taken to avoid bending or damaging the
TPMS valves. Always confirm the
correct alignment of the inflation head
to the valve stem.
Note: Non-approved accessories may interfere
with the system. If this occurs, TYRE
PRESSURE MONITORING FAULT is displayed
in the Message centre.
Note: Different types of tyre may affect TPMS
performance. Always renew tyres in
accordance with recommendations.
TPMS constantly monitors the tyre pressure in
each wheel, including the full size spare.
Temporary use spare tyres are not monitored.
See 238, TEMPORARY USE SPARE WHEEL
AND TYRE CHANGE.
Wheels fitted with TPMS can be visually
identified by the external metal lock nut and
valve (1). All Land Rover non-TPMS wheels
have a rubber valve fitted (2).
Note: At each tyre change, a special service kit
is required for each TPMS valve.
Tyre pressures should be checked regularly
when the tyres are cold and adjusted as
necessary. The presence of TPMS does not
remove the need to check tyre pressures as
part of a vehicle safety check. See 231, TYRE
PRESSURES.
The tyre pressure warning lamp illuminates
when 1 or more of the tyres are significantly
under-inflated, accompanied with a message in
the Message centre. See 46, TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM (YELLOW). Stop and
check the tyres as soon as possible and inflate
them to the recommended pressure.
TPMS also monitors the full size spare tyre
pressure. If the pressure for the spare tyre is
incorrect, the message CHECK SPARE TYRE
PRESSURE is displayed, accompanied by the
illumination of the warning lamp.
