The TPMS indicator functions as both Low Tire Pressure Light
and TPMS Malfunction Indicator A . The indicator will illuminate
if 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 B is displayed on the LCD
screen in the Instrument Cluster when the tire(s) are underinflated . Inflate
tire(s), using an accurate digital tire pressure gauge, to specifications to
turn off Low Tire Pressure Position Indicator B – See front driver’s door
jamb for PSI specification .
When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS Malfunction Indicator
will blink for approximately one minute then illuminate—see dealer for
service .
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
REMINDERS:
• Check the recommended tire pressure label located on the left side of driver's door jam, visible when the door is open .
• Consult your dealer for service if Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s) .
•Even with TPMS, tire pressure should be checked manually at least once a month . Only adjust tire pressure on “cold tires” •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 •In winter or cold weather, the TPMS light may illuminate if the tire pressure was adjusted to the recommended tire inflation pressure during warm weather

There are several factors that contribute
to your vehicle’s fuel economy, including
maintenance of your vehicle, driving style,
environmental conditions, vehicle weight
and vehicle aerodynamics . Below are tips
on how to help improve fuel economy:
•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
•Keep tires inflated to the
recommended pressure
•Travel lightly, without carrying
unnecessary weight in your vehicle
•Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks
•Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
REMINDER: Driving range can vary depending on your vehicle’s fuel tank size, e .g ., 12-gal . vs . 24-gal ., even though the MPG may be the same

1 . Keep your vehicle in good condition with regular maintenance
2 . Travel lightly, without carrying unnecessary weight in your vehicle
3 . Don’t let the engine idle longer than necessary
REMINDERS:
•Not to be used in calculating or as a reference for AVER AGE fuel economy
•
If the vehicle speed exceeds 1 MPH (1 .6 km/h) after being refueled with more than 1 .6 gallons (6 liters), the average fuel economy will be cleared to zero (----)
