tire, the TPMS will update automatically and the Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale 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. The vehicle may
need to be driven for up to 10 minutes above 15 mph
(24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive this infor-
mation.
Premium System — If Equipped
The TPMS uses wireless technology with wheel rim
mounted electronic sensors to monitor tire pressure levels.
Sensors, mounted to each wheel as part of the valve stem,
transmit tire pressure readings to the receiver module.
NOTE: It is particularly important for you to check the tire
pressure in all of your tires regularly and to maintain the
proper pressure.
The TPMS consists of the following components:
•
Receiver Module
•
Four Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors
•
Three Trigger Modules (mounted in three of the four
wheel wells)
•
Various Tire Pressure Monitoring System Messages,
which display in the instrument cluster
•
Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will illuminate
in the instrument cluster and an audible chime will be
activated when one or more of the four active road tire
pressures are low. The audible chime will sound once every
ignition cycle for the first condition that it detects. In
addition, the instrument cluster will display a “LOW
TIRE” text message for a minimum of five seconds and a
graphic of the pressure value(s) with the low tire(s) flash-
ing.
