TPMS Sensor Identication Codes
Each TPMS sensor has a unique identication
code. Any time you replace one or more of
the TPMS sensors or rotate the vehicle’s tires,
the identication codes need to be matched to
the new tire/wheel position. The sensors are
matched, to the tire/wheel positions, in the
following order: driver side front tire, passenger
side front tire, passenger side rear tire, and driver
side rear tire using a TPMS diagnostic tool.
See your dealer for service.
The TPMS sensors may also be matched to each
tire/wheel position by increasing or decreasing
the tire’s air pressure. When increasing the tire’s
pressure, do not exceed the maximum ination
pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall.
You have two minutes to match each tire and
wheel position. If it takes longer than two minutes
to match any tire and wheel position, the
matching process stops and you need to
start over.The TPMS matching process is outlined below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to RUN with the
engine off.
3. Press the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter’s Lock and Unlock buttons at
the same time for approximately ve seconds.
The horn sounds twice to signal the receiver
is in relearn mode and the TPMS sensor
matching process can begin.
4. Start with the driver’s side front tire.
5. Remove the valve cap from the tire’s valve
stem. Activate the TPMS sensor by
increasing or decreasing the tire’s air
pressure for ten seconds, or until a horn
chirp sounds. The horn chirp, which
may take up to 30 seconds to sound,
conrms that the sensor identication code
has been matched to the tire/wheel
position. To decrease the tire’s air-pressure
use the pointed end of the valve cap,
a pencil-style air pressure gage, or a key.

{CAUTION:
If you use bias-ply tires on your vehicle,
the wheel rim anges could develop
cracks after many miles of driving. A tire
and/or wheel could fail suddenly, causing
a crash. Use only radial-ply tires with the
wheels on your vehicle.
If you must replace your vehicle’s tires with those
that do not have a TPC Spec number, make
sure they are the same size, load range, speed
rating, and construction type (radial and
bias-belted tires) as your vehicle’s original tires.
Your vehicle’s original equipment tires are listed on
the Tire and Loading Information label. This
label is attached to the vehicle’s center pillar
(B-pillar). SeeLoading Your Vehicle on page 317,
for more information about the Tire and Loading
Information label and its location on your vehicle.
Different Size Tires and Wheels
If you add wheels or tires that are a different size
than your original equipment wheels and tires,
this may affect the way your vehicle performs,
including its braking, ride and handling
characteristics, stability, and resistance to rollover.
Additionally, if your vehicle has electronic
systems such as, anti-lock brakes, traction control,
and electronic stability control, the performance
of these systems can be affected.
{CAUTION:
If you add different sized wheels, your
vehicle may not provide an acceptable
level of performance and safety if tires not
recommended for those wheels are
selected. You may increase the chance
that you will crash and suffer serious
injury. Only use GM specic wheel and
tire systems developed for your vehicle,
and have them properly installed by a GM
certied technician.

If the at tire is due to a slow leak caused by a
nail or other similar road hazard, the tire inator
kit may be used to temporarily repair the
damaged tire.
After temporarily repairing a tire using the tire
inator kit, it is recommended to take your vehicle
to an authorized GM dealer within 100 miles
(161 kilometers) of driving to have the tire
inspected and repaired. If the sealant isn’t
removed from the tire within a 100 miles
(161 kilometers) of driving, it is more likely
that the tire and tire pressure monitoring sensor
may get damaged and have to be replaced.Accessing the Tire Inator Kit
To access the tire inator kit, do the following:
1. Open the trunk. SeeTrunk on page 96
for more information.
2. Locate the tire inator kit by lifting up the
carpet.
3. Remove the inator
kit cover by turning
the center nut
counterclockwise.
425

Using the Tire Inator Kit
To use the tire inator kit, do the following:
1. Place the inator kit on the ground and unwrap
the sealant lling hose from the compressor.
2. Remove the air compressor accessory plug
from the unit. To do this, pull the top portion
of the wrapped cord out rst, then the bottom,
then unsnap the plug. Do not insert the
plug into an accessory outlet yet.
3. Remove the valve stem cap from the at tire
by turning it counterclockwise.
If an object, such as a nail, has penetrated the
tire, do not remove it.
4. Attach the sealant lling hose (A) onto the tire
valve stem. Turn it clockwise until it is tight.
Make sure the inator kit on/off switch (B) is in
the O (off) position.
5. Plug the air compressor accessory plug (C)
into an accessory power outlet in the vehicle.
SeeAccessory Power Outlet(s) on page 156
for more information.
