What to Do

How It Works

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)

Monitors the vehicle’s tire pressures.

1.

Visually inspect

the tires for

damage.

2.

Use

a tire air pressure gauge to

check which tire(s) have low

pressure.

3. Inflate

the tire(s), if necessary,

to the recommended pressures

listed on the label on the

driver’s doorjamb.

Each tire valve stem contains

a TPMS sensor.

When the tire pressure drops

significantly below recommended

levels, the low tire pressure

indicator comes on.

If a message also appears on

the multi-information display,

there may be a problem with

the system. See your dealer.
