The TPMS indicator functions as both the Low Tire Pressure
Light and the 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
the tire(s) to specifications using an
accurate tire pressure gauge to turn
off the Low Tire Pressure Indicator .
See the 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 the
dealer for service.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)†2 6
REMINDERS:
• Check the recommended tire pressure label located on the left side of the driver's door jamb, visible when the door is opened.
• Consult your dealer for service if the Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s).
• Personal electronic devices (such as laptops, wireless chargers, remote start systems, etc.) may interfere with the TPMS system, which may cause the Malfunction Warning Indicator (Check Engine Light) to illuminate.
Fuel Economy
Several factors contribute to your vehicle’s fuel economy, such as maintenance of your vehicle, driving style, environmental
conditions, vehicle weight and vehicle aerodynamics. Below are some tips on how to help improve fuel economy:

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)†6
The FCA system is designed to detect slowing or stopped traffic ahead and, under certain conditions, can apply the brakes
in order to help avoid or reduce the effects of a potential collision. Initially, FCA provides Forward Collision Warning (FCW )
when it detects a pedestrian or a potential collision with a vehicle in front, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on
the instrument cluster A.
Adjust the alert settings (Early, Normal, Late) in the User Settings. FCA is ON by default
and can be turned OFF in the User Settings menu on the Instrument Cluster display.
If the system detects that the collision risk has increased, FCA automatically applies
the brakes to reduce your speed, potentially helping to avoid or reduce the effects
of a possible collision. FCA can be turned ON in the User Settings menu on the
Instrument Cluster display.
FCA / FCW will become active when the:
• Engine Start /Stop button is ON
• Vehicle is traveling faster than 5 mph
• Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON
