TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
A TIRE LOW PRESSURE warning message will

appear in the vehicle information display
1 and

the low tire pressure warning light 2 will
illuminate when one or more tires are low in
pressure and air is needed.



•


T

he tire pressures should be checked when the
tires are cold. The tires are considered cold after
the vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or more or
driven less than 1 mi (1.6 km) at moderate speeds.
After tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle
at speeds above 16 mph (25 km/h). The TIRE
LOW PRESSURE warning message and low tire
pressure warning light will extinguish.
Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle’s operation and the outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the
temperature of the air inside the tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This
may cause the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate. If the warn\
ing light illuminates,
check the tire pressure in your tires.



•

Chec
k the tire pressure often and always prior to long distance trips.
The Tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. Please refer to the “Technical and consumer information (section 9)” in your Owner’s Manual for the location
of the Tire and Loading Information label.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)”, the “Starting and driving (section 5)” and
the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.
