{Warning
Overinflating a tire could cause the tire
to rupture and you or others could be
injured. Do not exceed the maximum
pressure listed on the tire sidewall. See
Tire Sidewall Labeling0285 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0162.
If the tire is overinflated by more than
35 kPa (5 psi), the horn will sound multiple
times and the turn signal lamp will continue
to flash for several seconds after filling
stops. To release and correct the pressure,
while the turn signal lamp is still flashing,
briefly press the center of the valve stem.
When the recommended pressure is reached,
the horn sounds once.
If the turn signal lamp does not flash within
15 seconds after starting to inflate the tire,
the tire fill alert has not been activated or is
not working.
If the hazard warning flashers are on, the
tire fill alert visual feedback will not work
properly. The TPMS will not activate the tire fill alert
properly under the following conditions:.There is interference from an external
device or transmitter.
.The air pressure from the inflation device
is not sufficient to inflate the tire.
.There is a malfunction in the TPMS.
.There is a malfunction in the horn or turn
signal lamps.
.The TPMS sensor identification code is not
registered to the system.
.The TPMS sensor battery is low.
If the tire fill alert does not operate due to
TPMS interference, move the vehicle about
1 m (3 ft) back or forward and try again.
If the tire fill alert feature is not working,
use a tire pressure gauge.
Air Down Mode (If Equipped)
Air Down Mode allows the driver to set a
custom tire pressure for better traction
during off-road driving. Visual and audible
alerts outside of the vehicle will alert the
driver when the desired tire pressure has
been reached. To enable Air Down Mode:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe, level place.
2. Place the vehicle in P (Park).
3. Place the vehicle in ON/RUN or press and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for
more than five seconds. See Ignition
Positions 0167.
4. Touch the Off-Road app icon on the infotainment home screen.
5. Touch the Air Down Mode icon.
6. Select the target pressure, then press START.
7. Choose which tire to deflate. Remove the valve cap, then press and hold the tire
valve stem.
During tire deflation, the turn signal
lamp closest to the tire being deflated
will start flashing.
When the target pressure you selected
in Step 6 is reached, the horn sounds
once and the turn signal lamp will stop
flashing and turn solid for several
seconds before turning off. Replace the
valve cap. Wait for the turn signal lamp
to turn off before deflating the next tire.
If you deflate the next tire while the
turn signal lamp is still on, the Air Down
Mode will not work properly.

Vehicle Care 295
Repeat Step 7 until all tires have been
deflated. Same steps can be followed for
inflating all tires to target pressure.
While in Air Down Mode, after all tires have
been deflated lower than the vehicle’s
recommended tire pressure, the low tire
pressure warning light and the DIC warning
message may come on for all tires.
Due to late air adjustment in a tire, the tire
pressure may change by 4 to 8 kpa (0.6 to
1.2 psi) after a few minutes, once you have
stopped deflation.
Ensure that the target pressure you select is
above or below your vehicle’s current tire
pressures by a least 20 kpa (3 psi).
If the tire is underinflated or overinflated by
more than 35 kPa (5 psi) from the target
pressure you selected in Step 6, the horn
will sound multiple times and the turn
signal lamp will continue to flash for several
seconds after tire pressure adjustment stops.
To correct the pressure, while the turn
signal lamp is still flashing, add air to inflate
the tire or briefly press the center of the
valve stem to deflate the tire. When the
target pressure you selected in Step 6 is
reached, the horn sounds once and the turn
signal lamp will stop flashing and turn solid
for several seconds before turning off. If the turn signal lamp does not flash within
15 seconds after starting to inflate the tire,
the Air Down Mode has not been activated
or is not working.
If the hazard warning flashers are on, the
Air Down Mode visual feedback will not
work properly.
The Air Down Mode will not work properly
under the following conditions:
.There is interference from an external
device or transmitter.
.The air pressure from the inflation device
is not sufficient to inflate the tire.
.There is a malfunction in the TPMS.
.There is a malfunction in the horn or turn
signal lamps.
.The TPMS sensor identification code is not
registered to the system.
.The TPMS sensor battery is low.
.The vehicle is not in P (Park).
.The vehicle is off.
.START was not pressed after selecting the
target tire pressure in the Air Down
Mode app.
If the Air Down Mode does not operate due
to TPMS interference, move the vehicle
about 1 m (3 ft) back or forward and try again. If the Air Down Mode is not working,
use a tire pressure gauge to confirm tire
pressure.
{Warning
Neither tire underinflation nor
overinflation is good. Underinflated
tires, or tires that do not have
enough air, can result in:
.Tire overloading and overheating,
which could lead to a blowout
.Premature or irregular wear
.Poor handling
.Reduced fuel economy for
internal combustion engine
vehicles
.Reduced range for electric vehicles
Overinflated tires, or tires that have
too much air, can result in:
.Unusual wear
.Poor handling
.Rough ride
.Needless damage from road
hazards
