IN BRIEF 25
The low tire pressure warning light
alerts to a significant loss in pressure
of one of the vehicle's tires. If the
warning light comes on, stop as soon
as possible and inflate the tires to the
recommended pressure shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label.
SeeVehicle Load Limits 0192. The
warning light will remain on until the
tire pressure is corrected.
The low tire pressure warning light
may come on in cool weather when
the vehicle is first started, and then
turn off as the vehicle is driven. This
may be an early indicator that the tire
pressures are getting low and the tires
need to be inflated to the proper
pressure.
The TPMS does not replace normal
monthly tire maintenance. Maintain
the correct tire pressures.
See Tire Pressure Monitor
System 0292.Fuel (LTG 2.0L L4 Turbo
Engine)
Premium Recommended Fuel
Use unleaded petrol rated at 95 RON
or higher in your vehicle. Unleaded
petrol with an octane rating as low as
91 RON may be used, but it will
reduce performance and fuel economy.
See Fuel 0242.
Fuel (LGX 3.6L V6 Engine)
Use only unleaded petrol rated at 91
RON or higher in your vehicle. Do not
use petrol with an octane rating lower
as it may result in vehicle damage and
lower fuel economy. See Fuel0242.
Fuel (LF3 3.6L V6 Twin
Turbo and LT4 6.2L
V8 Engines)
Premium Required Fuel
Use 95 RON or higher octane
unleaded gasoline in your vehicle. Do
not use petrol with an octane rating
lower as it may result in vehicle
damage and lower fuel economy. See

This indicates that one or more of the
tires are significantly underinflated.
A Driver Information Center (DIC) tire
pressure message may also display.
SeeTire Messages 0147. Stop as soon
as possible, and inflate the tires to the
pressure value shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See Tire
Pressure 0290.
When the Light Flashes First and
Then Is On Steady
If the light flashes for about a minute
