correct ination pressure. The system will display the air
pressure, the tire location (LF, RF, RR or LR), and
LOW TIRE if the air pressure is low or HIGH TIRE if the
air pressure is high. The tire pressure information is
available in English or metric measurements. For
example, a driver’s side front tire that is low may be
shown as: 22 PSI LF TIRE LOW.
The correct tire ination pressure should be set to those
shown on the Tire and Loading Information label. See
Loading Your Vehicle on page 4-30for the location
of this label. For more information regarding proper tire
ination, seeInation - Tire Pressure on page 5-65.

and inspect your tire(s) for damage. If a tire is at,
seeIf a Tire Goes Flat on page 5-76.
Once the TPM system detects the low or high tire
pressure condition, the message CHECK TIRE
PRESSURE will be displayed whenever you start the
engine. To remove or clear the CHECK TIRE
PRESSURE message, you will need to set the tire(s) to
the proper tire pressure. SeeInation - Tire Pressure
on page 5-65. SeeTire Pressure Monitor Operation on
page 5-68for more information.

Tire Pressure Monitor Operation
If your vehicle has the Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM)
system, it uses radio and sensor technology to check tire
pressure levels. Sensors, mounted on each road
wheel, transmit tire pressure readings to a receiver
located in the trunk. Tire pressure status and tire
pressure warnings are shown on the Driver Information
Center (DIC) display. SeeDriver Information Center
(DIC) on page 3-57, for details regarding DIC controls
and displays.
The system operates on a radio frequency subject to

your tires for damage. If a tire is at, seeIf a Tire
Goes Flat on page 5-76.
Notice:Do not use a tire sealant if your vehicle is
equipped with Tire Pressure Monitors. The liquid
sealant can damage the tire pressure monitor
sensors.
Once a low or high tire pressure condition is detected,
the TPM system will display the CHECK TIRE
MESSAGE each time the engine is started, until the
tire(s) are set to the correct ination pressure.
The Tire-Loading Information Label, which is located on
the rear edge of the driver’s door, shows the correct
ination pressure for the tires on your vehicle.
