PAX SYSTEM
Operating principle
Depending on the version, your
vehicle may be equipped with the
Run-Flat Tyres system. It has the
special feature of allowing you to
continue driving with a puncture on
condition that you adapt your
driving style and do not exceed a
speedof50mph(80km/h)overa
maximum distance of 120 miles
(200 km) (risk of damage to the
tyre).
Each unit consists of four specific
and inseparable components:
- the tyre,
- a flexible rest,
-thewheelrim,
- the Tyre Pressure Monitor sensor.
This function is an
additional critical driving
aid. However, the function
does not take the place of
the driver. It does not increase the
vehicle's limits. Driving must be
adapted (moderate speed, gentle
movements) in the event of
running on a flat tyre. It can, thus,
under no circumstances replace
the vigilance or responsibility of
the driver when manoeuvring the
vehicle (the driver must always be
aware of sudden incidents which
may occur when driving).
As this unit features special
technology, a Pax System must not
be fitted to a version that is not
designed for this equipment.
It is essential to consult a Renault
Dealer before converting a vehicle
fitted with the Pax System to the
conventional system.
