TPMS JEEP COMMANDER 2009 1.G User Guide

case, theCHECK TPM SYSTEMmessage is then fol-
lowed by a graphic display, with pressure values still
shown. This indicates the pressure values are still being
received from the TPM Sensors. However, the system still
needs to be serviced as long as theCHECK TPM
SYSTEMmessage exists.
NOTE:
•If your vehicle is equipped with a matching full-size
spare wheel and tire assembly, it has a tire pressure
monitoring sensor, and can be monitored by the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). In the event that
the matching full-size spare tire is swapped with a low
pressure road tire, the next ignition key cycle will still
show the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light to be
ON, a chime to sound, a Low Pressure message to
appear in the EVIC, and the graphic display will still
show the low tire pressure value “flashing.” Driving
the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph
(24 km/h) will turn OFF the Tire Pressure MonitoringTelltale Light as long as none of road tires are below
the low pressure warning threshold. The EVIC will
also display a “SPARE LOW PRESSURE” message,
and the graphic display will show a tire pressure value
in place of the “flashing” low tire pressure value.
•If your vehicle is not equipped with a matching
full-size spare wheel and tire assembly, it does not
have a tire pressure monitoring sensor in the spare tire.
The TPMS will not be able to monitor the tire pressure.
If you install the spare tire in place of a road tire that
has a pressure below the low-pressure warning limit,
upon the next ignition key cycle, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light will remain ON, a chime will
sound, and the EVIC will still display a “flashing”
pressure value in the graphic display. After driving the
vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h),
the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will flash
on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on solid. In
addition, the EVIC will display a “CHECK TPM
STARTING AND OPERATING 365
5

SYSTEMmessage for three seconds and then display
dashes (- -) in place of the pressure value. For each
subsequent ignition key cycle, a chime will sound, the
Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will flash on
and off for 75 seconds and then remain on solid, and
the EVIC will display aCHECK TPM SYSTEM
message for three seconds and then display dashes (- -)
in place of the pressure value. Once you repair or
replace the original road tire, and reinstall it on the
vehicle in place of the spare tire, the TPMS will update
automatically.
In addition, the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light
will turn OFF and the graphic in the EVIC will display a
new pressure value instead of dashes (- -), as long as no
tire pressure is below the low-pressure warning limit in
any of the four active road tires. The vehicle may need to
be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h)
in order for the TPMS to receive this information.General Information
