How Temperature Affects Your Tire
Pressure
The tire pressure monitoring system
monitors tire pressure in each pneumatic
tire. While driving in a normal manner, a
typical passenger tire inflation pressure
may increase about 14–28 kPa from a cold
start situation. If the vehicle is stationary
overnight with the outside temperature
significantly lower than the daytime
temperature, the tire pressure may
decrease about 21 kPa for a drop of 30°F
(17°C) in ambient temperature. This lower
pressure value may be detected by the tire
pressure monitoring system as being
significantly lower than the recommended
inflation pressure and activate the system
warning light for low tire pressure. If the
low tire pressure warning light is on,
visually check each tire to verify that no tire
is flat. If one or more tires are flat, repair as
necessary. Check the air pressure in the
road tires. If any tire is under-inflated,
carefully drive the vehicle to the nearest
location where air can be added to the
tires. Inflate all the tires to the
recommended inflation pressure.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Reset Procedure
Overview
You must carry out the system reset
procedure after each tire replacement or
adjustment of the tire pressures.
To maintain your vehicle load carrying
capability, your vehicle may require
different tire pressures in the front
compared to the rear. In these cases, the
system illuminates the warning lamp at
different pressures for the front and rear
tires.
If the tires are rotated, you need to reset
the system in order to relearn the positions
of the tire pressure sensors. The system
cannot tell which position a tire pressure
sensor is in, and assumes you have set the
tire pressures correctly.
Performing the Reset Procedure
1. Switch the ignition on.
2. Navigate to the tire monitor menu in
the information display. See
Information Messages (page 84).
3. Press and hold the OK button until a
confirmation message appears. If your
vehicle has a tire pressure monitoring
system reset button, press and hold
the button until a confirmation
message appears.
CHANGING A ROAD WHEEL
WARNING
If the tire pressure monitor sensor
becomes damaged it may not
function.
Note: The use of tire sealant may damage
your tire pressure monitoring system and
should only be used in roadside
emergencies. If you must use a sealant, the
Ford Tire Mobility Kit sealant should be
used. The tire pressure monitoring system
sensor and valve stem on the wheel must
be replaced by an authorized dealer after
use of the sealant.
Note: The tire pressure monitoring system
indicator light illuminates when the spare
tire is in use. To restore the full function of
the monitoring system, all road wheels
equipped with tire pressure monitoring
sensors must be mounted on the vehicle.
