What to Do
How It Works
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
Monitors the vehicle’s tire pressures.
Each tire valve stem contains
a TPMS sensor.
When the tire pressure drops
significantly below recommended
levels, the low tire pressure
indicator comes on.
NOTE\b On vehicles with MID, a
message also appears on the display.
If the TPMS indicator* appears,
there may be a problem with the
system. See your dealer.*on models without MID
\f8
\f.Visually inspect the tires for
damage.
2. Use a tire air pressure gauge
(or check the MID) to check
which tire(s) have low pressure.
3. Inflate the tire(s), if necessary,
to the recommended pressures
listed on the label on the
driver’s doorjamb.

How It Works
• When you shift into Reverse (R), a real\btime image of the area behind your vehicle is shown in the
navigation display.
• The display turns off when you shift out of Reverse.
For added convenience, the area behind your vehicle is displayed to help you navigate
while backing up.
