•Use the climate control system less often Use the Driver Only* setting as much as possible
•Keep your vehicle in good condition with regular maintenance
•Don’t let the engine idle longer than necessary
•Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating smoothly and at a moderate rate

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)†21
The indicator functions as both Low Tire Pressure Light and TPMS Malfunction Indicator
The TPMS indicator is designed to illuminate if it detects one or more tires is significantly underinflated, the vehicle has a spare tire installed without TPMS or the outside temperature becomes significantly lower The Low Tire Pressure Position Indicator A is displayed on the LCD screen in the Instrument Cluster when the tire(s) is underinflated
•Inflate tire(s) to specifications to turn off the Low Tire Pressure Light using an accurate tire pressure gauge See front driver ’s door jamb for PSI specifications
•When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS Malfunction Indicator will blink for approximately one minute and then illuminate - See dealer for service

•Even with TPMS, tire pressure should be checked manually at least once a month Only adjust tire pressure on “cold tires” that have been sit ting for 3 hours or more, and tires that are not hot in temperature from direct sunlight or heat
•For proper maintenance and optimal fuel economy, maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle
•A significant drop in temperature can cause tire inflation pressures to drop, which may activate the TMPS light Manually confirm tire pressures after significant changes in temperature or altitude
