NOTE:
• If your vehicle is equipped with a match-
ing full-size spare wheel and tire assem-
bly, it has a tire pressure monitoring sen-
sor, and can be monitored by the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) when
swapped with a low pressure road tire. In
the event that the matching full-size spare
tire is swapped with a low pressure road
tire, the next ignition key cycle will still
show the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Tell-
tale Light” to be ON, and a chime to
sound. Driving the vehicle for up to
10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) will
turn OFF the “Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light” as long as none of the road
tires are below the low pressure warning
threshold.
• If your vehicle is not equipped with a
matching full-size spare wheel and tire
assembly, it does not have a tire pressure
monitoring sensor in the spare tire. The
TPMS will not be able to monitor the tire
pressure. If you install the spare tire in
place of a road tire that has a pressure
below the low-pressure warning limit,
upon the next ignition key cycle, a chime
will sound and the “Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing Telltale Light” will turn ON. After driv-
ing the vehicle for up to 10 minutes above
15 mph (24 km/h), the “Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light” will flash on and
off for 75 seconds and then remain on
solid. For each subsequent ignition key
cycle, a chime will sound and the “Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” will
flash on and off for 75 seconds and then
remain on solid. Once you repair or replace
the original road tire, and reinstall it on the
vehicle in place of the spare 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 ve-
hicle may need to be driven for up to
10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in
order for the TPMS to receive this
information. Premium System — If Equipped
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (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 regu-
larly check the tire pressure in all of your tires
and to maintain the proper pressure.
