parking sensors CADILLAC SRX 2006 1.G Owners Manual

Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale
illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as
soon as possible, and inate them to the proper
pressure. Driving on a signicantly under-inated tire
causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-ination also reduces fuel efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling
and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper
tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-ination has
not reached the level to trigger illumination of the
TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
The Tire and Loading Information Label shows the size
of your vehicle’s original tires and their recommended
cold ination pressures. SeeLoading Your Vehicle
on page 4-44, for the location of the tire and loading
information label. Also seeInation - Tire Pressure
on page 5-59.
Your vehicle’s TPMS can warn you about a low tire
pressure condition but it does not replace normal
tire maintenance. SeeTire Inspection and Rotation on
page 5-64andTires on page 5-52.
Notice:Do not use a tire sealant if your vehicle has
Tire Pressure Monitors. The liquid sealant can
damage the tire pressure monitor sensors.TPM Sensor Identication Codes
Each TPM sensor has a unique identication code. Any
time you replace one or more of the TPM sensors,
the identication codes will need to be matched to the
new tire/wheel position. Each tire/wheel position is
matched to a sensor, by increasing or decreasing the
tire’s air pressure. The sensors are matched to the
tire/wheel positions in the following order: left front (LF),
right front (RF), right rear (RR), and left rear (LR).
You will have one minute to match the rst tire/wheel
position, and ve minutes overall, to match all
four tire/wheel positions. If it takes longer than
one minute, to match the rst tire and wheel, or more
than ve minutes to match all four tire and wheel
positions the matching process stops and you will need
to start over.
The TPM matching process is outlined below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON with the engine off.
3. Using the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter,
lock and unlock the vehicle’s doors.
4. Press the lock and unlock buttons, at the same
time, on the RKE transmitter. A single horn chirp
will sound, indicating that the TPM system is ready,
and the sensor matching process can begin.
5. Start with the driver’s side front tire.
