Tire Monitor – messages
When low tire pressure has been detected, a
message will be displayed and the tire pressure
warning telltale in the instrument panel (
)
will illuminate.
Messages
If the telltale illuminates, one of the following
message will also be displayed:
•
Tire pressure low
/
Check, adjust and
calibrate
•
Tire pressure system
/
Service required
•
Tire pressure system
/

Erasing warning messages
To erase a low tire pressure message and turn
off the telltale:
1. Use a tire pressure gauge to check the infla-
tion pressure of all four tires.
2. Re-inflate the tires to the correct pressure
(consult the tire pressure decal on the driv-
er's door opening.
3. Recalibrate Tire Monitor, see Calibrating Tire
Monitor (p. 93).
NOTE
To help avoid incorrect tire inflation pressure,
only inflate the tires when they are cold. The
tires are considered to be cold when they
have the same temperature as the surround-
ing (ambient) air. This temperature is normally
reached after the vehicle has been parked for
at least 3 hours. After driving a distance of
approximately 1 mile (1.6 km), the tires are
considered to be hot.
CAUTION
•
After inflating the tires, always reinstall
the valve cap to help avoid damage to the
valve from dirt, gravel, etc.
•
Use plastic valve caps only. Metal caps
could corrode and become difficult to
remove.
WARNING
•
Incorrect inflation pressure could lead to
tire failure, resulting in a loss of control of
the vehicle.
•
Tire monitoring systems cannot indicate
sudden tire damage caused by external
factors (e.g., a blowout) in advance.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) – general information
TPMS uses sensors mounted in the tire valves
to check inflation pressure levels. When the
vehicle is moving at a speed of approximately
20 mph (30 km/h) or faster, these sensors
transmit inflation pressure data to a receiver
located in the vehicle.

) (also
referred to as a telltale) in the instrument panel
and will display one of the following messages:
