Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or
wheel housings
Using tire chains on the vehicle
Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS
sensors
Vehicles With Matching Full-Size Spare
1. The matching full size spare wheel and tire
assembly has a tire pressure monitoring
sensor that can be monitored by the TPMS.
2. If you install the full size spare in place of a
road tire that has a pressure below the
low-pressure warning limit, a chime will
sound and the “TPMS Light” will turn on
upon the next ignition key cycle. In addition,
the instrument cluster will display a Tire Low
message, an "Inflate to XX" message and a
graphic showing the low tire pressure value
in a different color.
3. After driving the vehicle for up to
20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) the
“TPMS Light” will turn off, as long as no tire
pressure is below the low-pressure warning
limit in any of the four active road tires.
4. The instrument cluster will display a graphic
showing the tire pressure value in the same
color as the other pressure values in place
of the different color low tire pressure value.
The instrument cluster will also display a
dedicated message to remind you to service
the flat tire.
Vehicles With Compact Spare or Non-Matching
Full Size Spare
1. The compact spare tire or non-matching
full size does not have a Tire Pressure
Monitoring sensor. Therefore, the TPMS
will not monitor the pressure in the
compact spare tire.
2. If you install the compact or non-matching
full size spare tire in place of a road tire that
has a pressure below the low-pressure
warning limit, upon the next ignition key
cycle, the “TPMS Light” will remain on and a
chime will sound. In addition, the graphic in
the instrument cluster will still display a
different color pressure value and an
"Inflate to XX" message.
3. After driving the vehicle for up to
20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h),
the “TPMS Light” will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then remain on solid. In
addition, the instrument cluster will display
a “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message for five
seconds and then display dashes (--) in
place of the pressure value.
4. For each subsequent ignition key cycle, a
chime will sound, the “TPMS Light” will flash
on and off for 75 seconds and then remain
on solid, and the instrument cluster will
display a “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message
for five seconds and then display dashes (--)
in place of the pressure value.
5. Once you repair or replace the original road
tire and reinstall it on the vehicle in place of
the compact spare or non-matching full
size, the TPMS will update automatically. In
addition, the “TPMS Light” will turn off and
the graphic in the instrument cluster will
display a new pressure value instead of
dashes (--), as long as no tire pressure is
below the low-pressure warning limit in any
of the four active road tires. The vehicle may
need to be driven for up to 20 minutes
above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the
TPMS to receive this information.
