Tire Pressure Monitor
The Tire Pressure Monitor alerts you
when a significant reduction in pressure
occurs in one or more of your vehicle’s
tires by illuminating the (Low Tire
Pressure) warning light on the instru
ment panel. The low tire pressurewarning light will remain on until youcorrect the tire pressure.
A CHECK TIRE PRESSURE message
may appear on the DIC.
Correcting the Tire Pressure
When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you must fill the tire to the
proper tire inflation pressure. The Tire
and Loading Information label, located
on the center pillar below the driver’sdoor latch, shows the correct inflationpressure for the tires when they’re cold.“Cold” means your vehicle has beensitting for at least three hours or drivenno more than one mile.
You can temporarily remove the DIC
message by acknowledging it with yourDIC controls. However, at the next
vehicle startup, the DIC message will
reappear if the tire pressure has notbeen corrected.
You may notice during cooler conditions
that the low tire pressure warning lightwill appear when the vehicle is first
started and then turn off as you start todrive the vehicle. This could be an early
indicator that your tire pressures are getting low and need to be inflated to theproper pressure.

alert you about low tire pressure, but itdoesn’t replace normal monthly tiremaintenance.
