The indicator functions as both Low Tire
Pressure Light and TPMS Malfunction Indicator
The TPMS indicator illuminates if one or more tires
is significantly underinflated, the vehicle has a spare
tire installed without TPMS or the outside temperature
becomes significantly lower
Inflate tire(s) to specifications using an accurate digital
tire pressure gauge to turn off Low Tire Pressure Light
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 and then illuminate - See dealer for service
REMINDER: Consult your dealer for service if the Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s)
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
•
•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
QUICK TIPS
Fuel Economy
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 vehicles
• Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks
• Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
REMINDER: Driving range varies depending on a vehicle’s fuel tank size, e g , 12-gal vs 24-gal Even though the two vehicles, MPG may be the same, the vehicle with the larger tank will have the greater range
