CENTRAL TIRE INFLATION SYSTEM (CTIS)
0022 00
OPERATION - Continued
OPERATE IN RUN FLAT MODE
CAUTION
Do not use RUN FLAT mode continuously for more than 40 minutes. Using
RUN FLAT mode for more than 40 minutes can cause tires to over-inflate.
Failure to comply may cause damage to equipment.
NOTE
CTIS is operated in RUN FLAT mode when tire(s) have been punctured. RUN
FLAT mode causes CTIS to check tire pressure every 15 seconds (normal
interval is every 15 minutes). If low air pressure is sensed, CTIS will supply
air in wet tank to leaking tire(s) every 15 seconds.
CTIS will begin inflating tires to selected mode pressure after RUN FLAT
mode has been operating for 10 minutes. RUN FLAT mode button must be
pressed again to continue operating in RUN FLAT mode.

CTIS is operating in RUN FLAT mode.

If operating CTIS in RUN FLAT mode is no longer required, press RUN FLAT mode
button (9) again. RUN FLAT mode light (10) will go out.
3.
Change leaking tire(s) (WP 0105 00) as soon as possible.
