instrument cluster RAM 1500 2022 Owners Manual

328SAFETY
If a PEB event begins at a speed below 37 mph
(60 km/h), the system may provide braking to
mitigate the potential collision with a pedestrian. If
the PEB event stops the vehicle completely, the
system will hold the vehicle at a standstill for two
seconds and then release the brakes. When the
system determines a collision with the pedestrian
in front of you is no longer probable, the warning
message will be deactivated.
The minimum speed for PEB activation is 3 mph
(5 km/h). Turning PEB On Or Off
NOTE:The default status of PEB is “On.” This allows the
system to warn you of a possible frontal collision
with the pedestrian.
The PEB button is located in the Uconnect display
in the controls settings Ú
page 234.
To turn the PEB system off, push the Pedestrian
Emergency Braking button once.
To turn the PEB system back on, push the
Pedestrian Emergency Braking button again.
Changing the PEB status to “Off” deactivates the
system, so no warning or active braking will be
available in case of a possible frontal collision with
the pedestrian.
NOTE:The PEB system will retain the last setting selected
by the driver after ignition shut down.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM
(TPMS)
TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire pressure
based on the vehicle recommended cold placard
pressure.
NOTE:The TPMS Warning Light will illuminate in the
instrument cluster and a chime will sound when
tire pressure is low in one or more of the four active
road tires. In addition, the instrument cluster will
display a graphic showing the pressure values of
each tire with the low tire pressure values in a
different color, or the Uconnect radio will display a
TPMS message; when this occurs you must
increase the tire pressure to the recommended
cold placard pressure in order for the TPMS
Warning Light to turn off.
The tire pressure will vary with temperature by
about 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (6.5°C). This
means that when the outside temperature
decreases, the tire pressure will decrease. Tire
pressure should always be set based on cold
inflation tire pressure. This is defined as the tire
pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for
at least three hours, or driven less than 1 mile
(1.6 km) after a three hour period. The cold tire
inflation pressure must not exceed the maximum
inflation pressure molded into the tire sidewall.
The tire pressure will also increase as the vehicle
is driven — this is normal and there should be no
adjustment for this increased pressure.
See Ú page 444 on how to properly inflate the
vehicle’s tires.
WARNING!
Pedestrian Emergency Braking (PEB) is not
intended to avoid a collision on its own, nor can
PEB detect every type of potential collision with
a pedestrian. The driver has the responsibility to
avoid a collision by controlling the vehicle via
braking and steering. Failure to follow this
warning could lead to serious injury or death.

22_DT_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 328

330SAFETY
The TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility
to maintain correct tire pressure using an accu -
rate tire pressure gauge, even if underinflation
has not reached the level to trigger illumination
of the TPMS Warning Light.
Seasonal temperature changes will affect tire
pressure, and the TPMS will monitor the actual
tire pressure in the tire.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System Display

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) uses
wireless technology with wheel rim mounted
electronic sensors to monitor tire pressure levels.
Sensors, mounted to each wheel as part of the
valve stem, transmit tire pressure readings to the
receiver module.
NOTE:It is particularly important for you to check the tire
pressure in all of the tires on your vehicle monthly
and to maintain the proper pressure.
The TPMS consists of the following components:
Receiver module
Four Tire Pressure Monitoring System sensors
Various Tire Pressure Monitoring System
messages, which display in the instrument
cluster
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Low
Pressure Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) Warning Light will illuminate in
the instrument cluster and a chime will
sound when tire pressure is low in one or
more of the four active road tires. In addition, the
instrument cluster will display a graphic showing
the pressure values of each tire with the low tire
pressure values in a different color. An "Inflate to
XX" message will also be displayed.
Low Tire Pressure Display

Should this occur, you should stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tires with a low pressure
condition (those in a different color in the
instrument cluster graphic) to the vehicle’s
recommended cold placard pressure inflation
value as shown in the "Inflate to XX" message.
Once the system receives the updated tire
pressures, the system will automatically update,
the graphic display in the instrument cluster will
return to its original color, and the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System Warning Light will turn off. The
vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes
above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to
receive this information.

22_DT_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 330

SAFETY331
NOTE:When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may need
to be increased up to an additional 4 psi (28 kPa)
above the recommended cold placard pressure in
order to turn the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Warning Light off.
Service TPMS Warning
If a system fault is detected, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) Warning Light will flash
on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on
solid. The system fault will also sound a chime. In
addition, the instrument cluster will display a
"SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message for a minimum
of five seconds and then display dashes (--) in
place of the pressure value to indicate which
sensor is not being received.
If the ignition switch is cycled, this sequence will
repeat, providing the system fault still exists. If the
system fault no longer exists, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System Warning Light will no longer
flash, and the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message
will no longer display, and a pressure value will
display in place of the dashes. A system fault can
occur due to any of the following:
Signal interference due to electronic devices or
driving next to facilities emitting the same radio
frequencies as the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System sensors
Installing aftermarket window tinting that
contains materials that may block radio wave
signals
Accumulation of snow or ice around the wheels
or wheel housings
Using tire chains on the vehicle
Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS
sensors
A system fault may occur due to an incorrect TPMS
sensor location condition. When a system fault
occurs due to an incorrect TPMS sensor location,
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds
and then remain on solid. The system fault will also
sound a chime. In addition, the instrument cluster
will display a Tire Pressure Temporarily Unavailable
message in place of the tire pressure display
screen. If the ignition switch is cycled, this
sequence will repeat, providing the system fault
still exists. If the system fault no longer exists, the
“Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light”
will no longer flash and the tire pressure display
screen will be displayed showing the tire pressure
values the correct locations. Vehicles With Non-Matching Full Size Spare Or
Compact Spare
The non-matching full size spare or compact
spare tire does not have a TPMS sensor. There
-
fore, the TPMS will not monitor the pressure in
the non-matching full size spare or compact
spare tire.
If you install the non-matching full size spare or
compact spare tire in place of a road tire that
has a pressure below the low-pressure warning
limit, upon the next ignition switch cycle, the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Warning
Light and a “LOW TIRE” message will remain on
and a chime will sound. In addition, the graphic
in the instrument cluster will still display a pres -
sure value in a different color and an “Inflate to
XX” message.
After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes
above 15 mph (24 km/h), the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) Warning Light will
flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain
on solid. In addition, the instrument cluster will
display a "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message for a
minimum of five seconds and then display
dashes (--) in place of the pressure value.

332SAFETY
For each subsequent ignition switch cycle, a
chime will sound, the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) Warning Light will flash on and
off for 75 seconds and then remain on solid,
and the instrument cluster will display a
"SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message for a
minimum of five seconds and then display
dashes (--) in place of the pressure value.
Once you repair or replace the original road tire
and reinstall it on the vehicle in place of the
non-matching full size spare or compact spare,
the TPMS will update automatically. In addition,
the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Warning Light will turn off and the graphic in the
instrument cluster will display a new pressure
value instead of dashes (--), as long as no tire
pressure is below the low-pressure warning limit
in any of the four active road tires. The vehicle
may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes
above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the TPMS
to receive this information.
Tire Fill Alert
This feature notifies the user when the placard tire
pressure is attained while inflating or deflating the
tire.
You may choose to disable or enable the Tire Fill
Alert feature through use of the Uconnect Settings
in the radio.
NOTE:
Only one tire can be filled at a time when using
the Tire Fill Alert system.
The Tire Fill Alert feature cannot be entered if an
existing TPMS fault is set to “active” or if the
system is in deactivation mode (if equipped).
The system will be activated when a positive
increase in tire pressure is detected by the TPMS
while inflating the tire. The ignition must be in the
RUN mode, with the transmission in PARK.
NOTE:It is not required to have the engine running to
enter Tire Fill Alert mode.
The hazard lamps will come on to confirm the
vehicle is in Tire Fill Alert mode.
When Tire Fill Alert mode is entered, the tire
pressure display screen will be displayed in the
instrument cluster.
If the hazard lamps do not come on while inflating
the tire, the TPMS sensor may be out of range
preventing the TPMS sensor signal from being
received. In this case, the vehicle may need to be
moved either forward or backward slightly to exit
the null spot. Operation:
The horn will sound once to let the user know
when to stop filling the tire, when it reaches
recommended pressure.
The horn will sound three times if the tire is over
-
filled and will continue to sound every five
seconds if the user continues to inflate the tire.
The horn will sound once again when enough air
is let out to reach proper inflation level.
The horn will also sound three times if the tire is
then underinflated and will continue to sound
every five seconds if the user continues to
deflate the tire.
Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TTPMS) — If Equipped
The Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TTPMS) is a feature that displays the trailer tire
pressure values and warns the driver of a low tire
pressure event based on the driver’s set target tire
pressure value, through TTPMS settings found in
the radio.
The TTPMS monitors the pressure of each tire and
warns the driver through the instrument cluster,
when either a low tire pressure condition falls
below 25% of the driver’s set pressure or if a
system malfunction occurs. The instrument cluster
will display the actual tire pressure or dashes for
each of the trailer tires in the correct trailer
position, based on trailer configuration.

22_DT_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 332

334SAFETY
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Low Pressure
Warnings
When a tire pressure low in one or more of the
active road tires is detected, the instrument cluster
will display a message stating “Trailer Tire
Pressure Low”. The instrument cluster will then
display the TTPMS graphic showing the pressure
values of each tire with the low tire pressure values
in a different color.
Should this occur, you should stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tires with a low pressure
condition (those in a different color in the
instrument cluster graphic) to the customer
programmed target tire pressure value as shown
at the top of the TTPMS instrument cluster graphic.
Once the tire(s) are inflated, the system will
automatically update the graphic display in the
instrument cluster, returning to its original color.
The vehicle may need to be driven for up to
10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for
the TTPMS to receive the updated information.
Service TTPMS Warning
If a system fault is detected, the instrument cluster
will display a “Trailer Tire Pressure System Service
Required” message for a minimum of five seconds. Once the system fault is corrected the "Trailer Tire
Pressure System Service Required" message will
no longer be displayed. The vehicle may need to be
driven for up to 10 minutes above 15 mph
(24 km/h) in order for the TTPMS to receive the
trailer tire pressure information.
Trailer Tire Pressure System Not Configured
A “Trailer Tire Pressure System Not Configured”
message will be displayed in the instrument
cluster on the TTPMS instrument cluster graphic
when a trailer number is selected that has not had
trailer tire pressure sensors paired. To correct this
condition, see Ú
page 234.
Trailer Sensors Detected Do Not Match Active
Trailer
The “Trailer Sensors Detected Do Not Match Active
Trailer” message will be displayed in the
instrument cluster when the trailer sensors being
received by the TTPMS module do not match the
trailer sensors paired to the current trailer number
selected. This message will be displayed when the
sensors being received completely match the
sensors paired to another trailer number
configured in the TTPMS module.
To correct this condition, the correct trailer number
must be selected in the radio Ú page 234.
