Refer to “Tire pressure monitoring system
(TPMS)” in “OPERATING YOUR VEHI-
CLE” section for additional details on the
tire pressure monitoring system. Refer to
“Tires” in “INSPECTION AND MAINTE-
NANCE” section for information on main-
taining proper tire pressure.
WARNING
The load-carrying capacity of your
tires is reduced at lower inflation
pressures. If your tires are even mod-
erately under-inflated, the load on the
tires may exceed the load-carrying
capacity of the tires, which could lead
to tire failure. The low tire pressure
warning light will not alert you to this
condition, because it only comes on
when one or more of your tires
becomes significantly under-inflated.
Check and adjust your tire inflation
pressure at least once a month. Refer
to “Tires” in “INSPECTION AND
MAINTENANCE” section.
WARNING
Continuing to drive with the low tire
pressure warning light on can lead to
an accident, resulting in severe injury
or death.
If the low tire pressure warning light
comes on and stays on, reduce your
speed and avoid abrupt steering and
braking. Be aware that driving on a
significantly under-inflated tire can
cause the tire to overheat and can
lead to tire failure, and may affect
steering control and brake effective-
ness. Stop the vehicle in a safe place
as soon as possible and check your
tires.
• If you have a flat tire, replace it with
the spare tire (if equipped). Refer to
“Jacking instructions” in “EMER-
GENCY SERVICE” section for the
tire replacement method. Also refer
to “Replacing tires and/or wheels”
for instructions on how to restore
normal operation of the TPMS after
you have had a flat tire.

• If your vehicle is equipped with a
flat tire repair kit instead of a spare
tire, refer to “Flat tire repair kit (if
equipped)” in “EMERGENCY SER-
VICE” section for instructions on
how to perform an emergency
repair of a flat tire.
• If one or more of your tires is
under-inflated, adjust the inflation
pressure of all tires to the recom-
mended inflation pressure as soon
as possible.
