5.4.16 Tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS)
The TPMS monitors the pressure and
temperature of the tire, and displays them on
the instrument cluster. In case of tire anomalies
such as low/high pressure, rapid air leakage
and high temperature, the instrument cluster
will display an alarm message accordingly.
If the vehicle has not been used for more
than seven days or the battery has been
disconnected, when the ENGINE START/STOP
button is in "ON" position, the tire pressure and
temperature will be displayed as "---” on the
instrument cluster, and after the vehicle speed
reaches above 25km/h for several minutes, the
real-time tire pressure and temperature will be
displayed on the instrument cluster.
Alarm description
-
If the tire pressure is higher than
330Kpa, the TPMS indicator lamp will
come on, and the alarm message about
high tire pressure will be displayed on
the instrument cluster; when the tire
pressure is lower than 300kPa, the fault is
eliminated and the tire pressure warning
lamp goes out.
-
If the tire pressure is lower than 75% of
the normal set value, the indicator lamp
of the TPM system comes on and the
alarm message on the instrument display
indicates that the tire pressure is low;
when the tire pressure (cold tire pressure)
rises to the normal set value, the fault is
eliminated and the tire pressure warning
lamp goes out.
-
If the tire pressure keeps reducing by
more than 30kPa/min, the TPMS indicator
lamp comes on and the alarm message
on the instrument display indicates that
the tire has air leakage; the vehicle is
powered on again, the fault is eliminated
and the tire pressure warning lamp goes
out.
-
If the tire temperature is higher than
85°C, the tire pressure monitoring system
indicator lamp will come on, and the text
alarm will be displayed on the instrument
cluster reading “Tire temperature is
high”; when the tire temperature drops to
80°C, the fault is eliminated and the tire
pressure warning lamp goes out.
CAUTION
After replacing the tire pressure sensor or
rotating the tires, you do not need to go
to the GAC Motor authorized shop for re-
learning and calibration, provided that the
tire pressure sensor is correctly installed
for the model, because the TPMS can
automatically complete the learning and
calibration in the next few driving cycles.
NOTE
If the low tire pressure alarm does not
disappear while you continue to drive as
the tire pressure sensor is missing when a
spare tire or a new tire has been replaced
in another place. Please do not interpret
that as abnormal tire pressure.
