Range Rover Evoque: Tyre pressure monitoring (TPM) system
The TPM system provides a low
pressure warning and does not
re-inflate your tyres. Tyre pressures
should be checked regularly using an
accurate pressure gauge when cold.
The TPM system 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, take
care not to
bend or damage the TPM system
valves. Always ensure correct
alignment of the inflation head to the
valve system.
Note: Different types of tyre may affect the performance of the TPM system. Always replace tyres in accordance with recommendations.
1. TPM system external metal lock nut and valve.
2. Non TPM system rubber valve.
The TPM system constantly monitors the tyre pressure in each wheel. Temporary use spare tyres (when fitted) are not monitored.
The tyre pressure warning lamp illuminates when one or more of the tyres is significantly under-inflated or a non TPM system wheel and tyre is in use.
This will be accompanied by a graphic and message in the message centre. The graphic and message will indicate which of the TPM system tyres needs attention.
You should stop and check the tyres as soon as possible and inflate them to the recommended pressure. See 212, CHECKING THE TYRE PRESSURES.
