Low tire pressure telltale
When the tire pressure monitorinþ sys‐
tem warninþ indicators are illuminated
and warninþ massaþe displayed on the
cluster LCD display, one or more oý
your tires is siþniýicantly under-inýla‐
ted. The low tire pressure position tell‐
tale liþht will indicate which tire is siþ‐
niýicantly under-inýlated by illuminatinþ
the correspondinþ position liþht.
Iý either telltale illuminates, immediate‐
ly reduce your speed, avoid hard cor‐
nerinþ and anticipate increased stop‐
pinþ distances. You should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible. In‐

indicated on the vehicle s placard or tire
inýlation pressure label located on the
driver s side center pillar outer panel. Iý

air, replace the low pressure tire with a
spare tire.

replaceinþ the low pressure tire with
the spare tire, one oý the ýollowinþ will

remain continuously illuminated while
drivinþ because the TPMS sensor is
not mounted on the spare wheel.

In winter or cold weather, the low
tire pressure telltale may illuminate

the recommended tire inflation pres‐
sure in warm weather. It does not

because the decreased temperature
leads to a lowering of tire pressure.
When you drive your vehicle from a
