The system will not detect a pressure loss without driving the vehicle
for at least 0.5 mile (0.8 km) at speeds greater than 25 mph (40 km/h).

The system normally requires 15 to 20 minutes of driving in each of
three speed ranges to learn how the tires behave after the system has
been reset. However, the system will become functional in each speed
range as soon as learning completes in each individual speed range.
Speed ranges:
•
Low 25–42 mph (40–68 km/h)
•
Medium 42–62 mph (68–100 km/h)
•
High – above 62 mph (100 km/h)
This system may not function properly under the following conditions:
•
Uneven tread wear.
•
Driving on loose or low traction surfaces such as gravel, snow or slush.
•

•
Initial tire pressures out of specified range.
•
Two or more under inflated tires.
•

•
Vehicle speeds less than 20 mph (30 km/h), greater than 70 mph (120
km/h) or driving duration less than 10 miles.
•
Transporting a heavy load or towing a trailer.
•
A different tire was replaced and was not the same brand, type, size,
speed rating, load carrying capacity and DOT code as the other tire on
the same axle.
•
System was not reset after tire rotation, air pressure adjustment, a tire
change, wheel alignment or tire balancing.
