SAFETY 203
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Low
Pressure Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Warning Light will illuminate in the
instrument cluster and a chime will sound
when tire pressure is low in one or more of
the four active road tires. In addition, the instrument
cluster will display a "Tire Low" message, an “Inflate
to XX” message, and a graphic showing the
pressure values of each tire with the low tire
pressure values highlighted or in a different color.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Low Pressure Warning
Should this occur, you should stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tires with low pressure
(those highlighted or in a different color in the
instrument cluster display graphic) to the vehicle’s
recommended cold placard pressure value, as
shown in the “Inflate to XX” message. Once the
system receives the updated tire pressures, the
system will automatically update, the pressure
values in the graphic display in the instrument
cluster will stop being highlighted or return to their
original color, and the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System Warning Light will turn off.
NOTE:
When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may need
to be increased up to an additional 4 psi (28 kPa)
above the recommended cold placard pressure in
order to turn the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Warning Light off.
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.
Service TPMS Warning
When a system fault is detected, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System Warning Light will flash on and
off for 75 seconds and then remain on solid. The
system fault will also sound a chime. In addition, the
instrument cluster will display a "SERVICE TPM
SYSTEM" message for a minimum of five seconds
and then display dashes (--) in place of the pressure
value to indicate which sensor is not being received.
If the ignition key is cycled, this sequence will
repeat, providing the system fault still exists. If the
system fault no longer exists, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System Warning Light will no longer
flash, and the “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message
will no longer display, and a pressure value will
display in place of the dashes. A system fault can
occur due to any of the following:

Jamming due to electronic devices or driving
next to facilities emitting the same radio
frequencies as the TPMS sensors

Installing some form of aftermarket window
tinting that affects radio wave signals

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 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
System sensor. Therefore, the TPMS will not
monitor the pressure in the compact or
non-matching full size 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 Tire
Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light will
remain on and a chime will sound. In addition,
the graphic in the instrument cluster will still
display a different color or highlighted pressure
value and the “Inflate to XX” message.
