Driving
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) - Required Federal Explanation
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold
and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer
on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle
on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the
proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with
a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low
tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop
and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the
proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-in flated tire causes the tire to overheat and
can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread
life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
