TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM
WARNING: The tirepressure monitoring system isnot a substitute for manuallychecking tire pressures. Youshould periodically check tirepressures using a pressuregauge. Failure to correctlymaintain tire pressures couldincrease the risk of tire failure,loss of control, vehicle rolloverand personal injury.
Note: You should only use tiresealants in roadside emergenciesas they may cause damage to thetire pressure monitoring systemsensor.
Note: If the tire pressuremonitoring system sensor becomesdamaged, it may not function.
Each tire, including thespare (if provided), shouldbe checked monthly whencold and inflated to the inflationpressure recommended by thevehicle manufacturer on thevehicle placard or tire inflationpressure label. (If your vehicle hastires of a different size than thesize indicated on the vehicleplacard or tire inflation pressurelabel, you should determine theproper tire inflation pressure forthose tires).
As an added safety feature, yourvehicle has been equipped with aTire Pressure Monitoring System(TPMS) that illuminates a low tirepressure telltale when one ormore of your tires is significantlyunder-inflated. Accordingly, whenthe low tire pressure telltaleilluminates, you should stop andcheck your tires as soon aspossible, and inflate them to theproper pressure. Driving on asignificantly under-inflated tirecauses the tire to overheat andcan lead to tire failure.Under-inflation also reduces fuelefficiency and tire tread life, andmay affect the vehicle’s handlingand stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is nota substitute for proper tiremaintenance, and it is the driver’sresponsibility to maintain correcttire pressure, even ifunder-inflation has not reachedthe level to trigger illumination ofthe TPMS low tire pressuretelltale.
Your vehicle has also beenequipped with a TPMSmalfunction indicator to indicatewhen the system is not operatingproperly. The TPMS malfunctionindicator is combined with the lowtire pressure telltale. When thesystem detects a malfunction, thetelltale will flash for

approximately one minute andthen remain continuouslyilluminated. This sequence willcontinue upon subsequent vehiclestart-ups as long as themalfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicatoris illuminated, the system may notbe able to detect or signal low tirepressure as intended. TPMSmalfunctions may occur for avariety of reasons, including theinstallation of replacement oralternate tires or wheels on thevehicle that prevent the TPMSfrom functioning properly. Alwayscheck the TPMS malfunctiontelltale after replacing one ormore tires or wheels on yourvehicle to ensure that thereplacement or alternate tires andwheels allow the TPMS tocontinue to function properly.

Changing Tires With a TirePressure Monitoring System
Note:Each road tire is equippedwith a tire pressure sensor locatedinside the wheel and tire assemblycavity. The pressure sensor isattached to the valve stem. Thepressure sensor is covered by thetire and is not visible unless the tireis removed. Take care whenchanging the tire to avoiddamaging the sensor.
You should always have your tiresserviced by an authorized dealer.
