When Changing Wheels
When changing the wheels of your vehicle,
the tire pressure monitoring system needs
to re-learn the tire pressure sensors. To
achieve this perform the following:
1. Make sure all tires are inflated to the
proper pressure. If not, inflate the tires
to the correct pressure. See
Tire
Pressures (page 186).
2. Park your vehicle for at least 20
minutes.
3. Carry out the tire pressure monitoring
system reset procedure. See Tire
Pressure Monitoring System Reset
Procedure
later in this section.
4. The tire pressure monitoring system
will automatically re-learn the tire
pressure sensors the next time you
drive your vehicle for approximately 15
minutes above 40km/h (25 mph).
Understanding the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System
The system measures the pressure in the
four road tires and sends the tire pressure
readings to your vehicle.
The system detects this lower pressure as
being significantly below the correct
inflation pressure and the warning lamp
illuminates. You must inflate the tires to
the correct pressure.
When the Temporary Spare Tire is
Installed
If you need to replace a road wheel and
tire with the temporary spare wheel, the
system will continue to identify a defect.
This is to remind you to repair the damaged
road wheel and tire and refit the repaired
road wheel and tire assembly to your
vehicle. To restore the correct operation
of the system, you must have the repaired
road wheel and tire assembly refitted to
your vehicle. For additional information,
see
Changing Tires with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System in this section.
When You Believe the System is Not
Operating Correctly
The main function of the system is to warn
you when the tire pressures are low. It can
also warn you in the event the system is
no longer capable of operating correctly.
See the following chart for information
concerning the system:
