Calibrate The Tyre Pressure Monitoring Indicator - Seat Arona Owner's Manual

The wheels on an axle are subject to a
●
heavier load (e.g. with a heavy load).
The vehicle is fitted with snow chains.

The temporary spare wheel is fitted.

The wheel on one axle is changed.

After changing the tyre pressure or replacing
one or more wheels, the tyre pressure moni-
toring indicator must be recalibrated. Do the
same, for example, when the front and rear
wheels are swapped.
Switch the ignition on.

When driving, the system self-calibrates the
tyre pressure provided by the driver and the
wheels fitted. After a long journey with varied

speeds the programmed values are collected
and monitored.
With the wheels under very heavy loads, the
tyre pressure must be increased to the total

WARNING
When the tyres are inflated at different

then a tyre may be damaged resulting in a
