If a wheel has been fitted that does not contain a sensor, the tyre pressure warning light Renault Scenic / Grand Scenic Tyre Pressure Warning Light will flash and the warning spanner Renault Scenic / Grand Scenic Spanner / Wrench Fault Warning Light may illuminate along with a warning message: ‘Check tyre pressure sensors’.
