uuWhen Driving uTPMS with Tire Fill Assist
Driving
TPMS with Tire Fill Assist
Monitors the tire pressure while you are 
driving. If your vehicle’ s tire pressure becomes 
significantly low, the  Low Tire Pressure/TPMS 
indicator comes on and a message appears on 
the multi-information display.1 TPMS with Tire Fill Assist
Conditions such as low ambient temperature and 
altitude change directly affect tire pressure and can 
trigger the Low Tire Pressure/TPMS indicator to come 
on.
2 If the Low Tire Pressure/Tire Pressure 
Monitoring System (TPMS) Indicator 
Comes On or Blinks P. 590
Tire pressure checked and inflated in:
•Warm weather can beco me under-inflated in 
colder weather.
•Cold weather can become  over-inflated in warmer 
weather.
The Low Tire Pressure/TPMS indicator will not come 
on as a result of over inflation.
The TPMS audibly and visually informs you of 
changes in tire pressure of  the individual tire that you 
are adjusting using audibl e and visual indications.
If a change in tire pressure has been significant, the 
system beeps and the hazard  lights flash continuously 
for five seconds when the specified tire pressure is 
reached. Stop filling the tire.

uuWhen Driving uTPMS with Tire Fill Assist
Driving
To select the tire pressure monitor, set the power 
mode to ON, and press the   
(information) button until you see the tire 
pressure screen.
The pressure for each tire is displayed in psi.
Tire Pressures Low  is displayed when a tire 
has significantly low pressure. The specific tire 
is displayed on the screen.
■Tire Pressure Monitor1 Tire Pressure Monitor
The pressure displayed  on the multi-information 
display can be slightly  different from the actual 
pressure as measured by a gauge. If there is a 
significant di fference between the two values, or if 
the Low Tire Pressure/TPMS indicator and the 
message on the multi-inform ation display do not go 
off after you have inflated the tire to the specified 
pressure, have the system checked by a dealer.
Tire Pressure Monitor Problem  may appear if you 
drive with the compact spare tire, or there is a 
problem with the TPMS.

uuWhen Driving uTire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required Federal Explanation
Driving
Tire Pressure Monitoring  System (TPMS) - Required 
Federal Explanation
Each tire, including the spare (i f provided), should be checked 
monthly when cold and inflated  to the inflation pressure 
recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard 
or tire inflation pressure label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated 
on the vehicle placard or tire infl ation pressure label, you should 
determine the proper tire inflat ion pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your  vehicle has been equipped with 
a tire pressure monitoring system  (TPMS) that illuminates a low 
tire pressure telltale 
when one or more of your tire s is significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pr essure telltale illuminates, you 
should stop and check your tires  as soon as possible, and inflate 
them to the proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-in flated tire causes the tire to 
overheat and can lead to tire fail ure. Under-inflation also reduces 
fuel efficiency and tire tread li fe, and may affect the vehicle’s 
handling and stopping ability.

uuWhen Driving uTire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required Federal Explanation
Driving
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 un der-inflation has not reached the 
level to trigger illumination of th e TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equi pped with a TPMS malfunction 
indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is  combined with the low tire 
pressure telltale. When the syst em detects a malfunction, the 
telltale will flash fo r approximately one minute and then remain 
continuously illumina ted. This sequence will continue upon 
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may 
not be able to detect or signal  low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may  occur for a variety of reasons, including 
the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the 
vehicle that prevent the TPMS  from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS  malfunction telltale after replacing one or 
more tires or wheels on your  vehicle to ensure that the 
replacement or alternate tires  and wheels allow the TPMS to 
continue to function properly.
