4. Using tire chains on the vehicle.
5. Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS sensors.
Vehicles With Compact Spare or non-Matching Full
Size Spare

1. The compact spare tire or non-matching full size spare

tire does not have a tire pressure monitoring sensor.

Therefore, the TPMS will not monitor the pressure in

the spare tire.

2. If you install the compact or non-matching full size

spare tire in place of a road tire that has a pressure

below the low-pressure warning limit, a chime will

sound and the “TPMS Telltale Light” and “LOW TIRE

PRESSURE” and ЉInflate to XXЉ messages will turn on

upon the next ignition cycle.

3. After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above

15 mph (24 km/h), the “TPMS Telltale Light” will

flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on

solid.

4. For each subsequent ignition cycle, a chime will sound

and the “TPMS Telltale Light” will flash on and off for

75 seconds and then remain on solid.

5. Once you repair or replace the original road tire and

reinstall it on the vehicle in place of the compact spare

or non-matching full size spare, the TPMS will update

automatically and the “TPMS Telltale Light” will turn

off, 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.
