The indicator functions as both Low Tire Pressure
Light and TPMS Malfunction Indicator.
The TPMS indicator illuminates if one or more tires is
signicantly underinated, the vehicle has a spare tire
installed without TPMS or the outside temperature becomes
signicantly lower .
Inate tire(s) to specications using an accurate digital tire
pressure gauge to turn off Low Tire Pressure Light
. See
front driver’s door jamb for PSI specication .
When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS
Malfunction Indicator
will blink for approximately one
minute and then illuminate - see dealer for service.

illuminated after inating your tire(s) .
There are several factors that contribute to your
electric vehicle’s energy consumption, including
maintenance of your vehicle, driving style,
environmental conditions, vehicle weight and vehicle
aerodynamics.
Below are tips on how to help reduce energy
consumption:
 Keep your vehicle in good condition with regular
maintenance

 Don’t “ride” the brake pedal

 Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating smoothly
and at a moderate rate

 Keep tires inated to the recommended pressure

 Travel lightly, without carrying unnecessary
weight in your vehicles

 Ensure wheels are aligned correctly

 Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks

 Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
REMINDER: Do not turn the vehicle off by pushing the POWER
button while the vehicle is in motion. If the vehicle has been turned
off the power brake and power steering system cannot operate.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System \fTPMS)
Energy Consumption



Even with TPMS, tire pressure should be checked manually at
least once a month . Only adjust Tire Pressure on “cold tires”

For proper maintenance and optimal fuel economy, maintain
recommended tire ination pressures and stay within the load
limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle

In winter or cold weather, the TPMS light may illuminate if the
tire pressure was adjusted to the recommended tire ination
pressure during warm weather
