NOTE:
• The charging system is independent from load reduction.The charging system performs a diagnostic on the
charging system continuously.
• If the Battery Charge Warning Light is on it may indicate a problem with the charging system. Refer to “Battery
Charge Warning Light” in “Getting To Know Your Instru -
ment Panel” for further information.

The electrical loads that may be switched off (if equipped), and
vehicle functions which can be affected by load reduction:

• Heated Seats/Vented Seats/Heated Wheel
• Rear Defroster And Heated Mirrors
• HVAC System
• 115V AC Power Inverter System
• Audio and Telematics System
Loss of the battery charge may indicate one or more of the
following conditions:
• The charging system cannot deliver enough electrical power to the vehicle system because the electrical loads are
larger than the capability of charging system. The charging
system is still functioning properly. • Turning on all possible vehicle electrical loads (e.g. HVAC
to max settings, exterior and interior lights, overloaded
power outlets +12V, 115V AC, USB ports) during certain
driving conditions (city driving, towing, frequent stop -
ping).
• Installing options like additional lights, upfitter electrical accessories, audio systems, alarms and similar devices.
• Unusual driving cycles (short trips separated by long parking periods).
• The vehicle was parked for an extended period of time (weeks, months).
• The battery was recently replaced and was not charged completely.
• The battery was discharged by an electrical load left on when the vehicle was parked.
• The battery was used for an extended period with the engine not running to supply radio, lights, chargers, +12V
portable appliances like vacuum cleaners, game consoles
and similar devices.

220 SAFETY
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) will warn the
driver of a low tire pressure based on the vehicle recom-
mended 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 pres -
sure 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 pres -
sure 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.
Refer to “Tires” in “Servicing And Maintenance” for infor -mation on how to properly inflate the vehicle’s tires. The tire
pressure will also increase as the vehicle is driven - this is
normal and there should be no adjustment for this increased
pressure.
The TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire pressure if the
tire pressure falls below the low-pressure warning limit for
any reason, including low temperature effects and natural
pressure loss through the tire.
The TPMS will continue to warn the driver of low tire pres
-
sure as long as the condition exists, and will not turn off until
the tire pressure is at or above the recommended cold
placard pressure. Once the low TPMS Warning Light illumi -
nates, you must increase the tire pressure to the recom -
mended cold placard pressure in order for the TPMS
Warning Light to turn off. The system will automatically
update and the TPMS Warning Light will turn off once the
system receives the updated tire pressures. 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.
NOTE:
When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may need to be
increased up to an additional 4 psi (28 kPa) above the recom -
mended cold placard pressure in order to turn the TPMS
Warning Light off.

SAFETY 227
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 TTPM module do
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 TTPM module.
To correct this condition, the correct trailer number must be
selected in the radio. Refer to the “Uconnect Settings” in
“Multimedia” for further information.
Tire Fill Alert
This feature notifies the user when the placard tire pressure
is attained while inflating or deflating the tire.
The customer may choose to disable or enable the Tire Fill
Alert feature through use of the customer settings in the
radio.
NOTE:
• Only one tire can be filled at a time when using the Tire FillAlert system. • The Tire Fill Alert feature cannot be entered if an existing
TPM system fault is set to “active” or if the system is in
deactivation mode (if equipped).
The system will be activated when the TPM receiver module
detects a change in tire pressure. The ignition must be in the
RUN mode, with the transmission in PARK (P).
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.
Operation:
• The horn will chirp to let the user know when to stop filling the tire, when it reaches recommended pressure.
• The horn will chirp three times if the tire is over filled and will continue to chirp every five seconds if the user
continues to inflate the tire.

228 SAFETY
• The horn will chirp once again when enough air is let outto reach proper inflation level.
• The horn will also chirp three times if the tire is then under-inflated and will continue to chirp every five
seconds if the user continues to deflate the tire.
Selectable Tire Fill Alert (STFA)
The Selectable Tire Fill Alert (STFA) system is an optional
feature that is included as part of the normal Tire Fill Alert
system. The system is designed to allow the customer to
select a pressure to inflate or deflate the vehicle's front and
rear axle tires to and to provide feedback to the customer
while inflating or deflating the vehicle's tires.
In the Selectable Tire Fill Alert customer settings menu in the
radio, the customer will be able to select a pressure setting
for both the front and rear axle tire pressures by scrolling
through a pressure range from XX to 15 psi in 1 psi incre -
ments for each axle setting. XX = the vehicle’s cold placard
pressure values for the front and rear axles as shown on the
vehicle placard pressure label.
The customer may also store the pressure values chosen for
each axle in the radio as a preset pressure. The customer will
be allowed to store up to two sets of preset values in the radio
for the front and rear axle pressure values. Once the customer selects the tire pressures for the front and
rear axles that they want to inflate or deflate to, they can
begin inflating or deflating one tire at a time.
NOTE:
The STFA system will only support inflating or deflating one
tire at a time.
The system will be activated when the TPM receiver module
detects a change in tire pressure. The ignition must be in the
RUN mode, with the transmission in PARK (P).
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.
Operation:
• The horn will chirp once when the selected pressure is
reached to let the user know when to stop inflating or
deflating the tire.
• The horn will chirp three times if the tire is over inflated or over deflated and will continue to chirp every five seconds
if the user continues to inflate or deflate the tire.
• The horn will chirp once again when enough air is added or removed to reach proper selected pressure level.
