If the warning light comes on, stop as soon as possible
and inflate the tires to the recommended pressure
shown on the tire loading information label. See
Loading the Vehicle on page 5‑18.
A message to check the pressure in a specific tire
displays in the Driver Information Center (DIC). The
low tire pressure warning light and the DIC warning
message come on at each ignition cycle until the tires
are inflated to the correct inflation pressure. Using the
DIC, tire pressure levels can be viewed by the driver.
For additional information and details about the DIC
operation and displays see DIC Operation and Displays
on page 4‑42 and DIC Warnings and Messages on
page 4‑49.
The low tire pressure warning light may come on in
cool weather when the vehicle is first started, and then
turn off as the vehicle is driven. This could be an early
indicator that the air pressure is getting low and needs
to be inflated to the proper pressure.
A Tire and Loading Information label shows the size
of the original equipment tires and the correct inflation
pressure for the tires when they are cold. See Loading
the Vehicle on page 5‑18, for an example of the Tire
and Loading Information label and its location on your
vehicle. Also see Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 6‑64.
Your vehicle's TPMS can warn you about a low tire
pressure condition but it does not replace normal tire
maintenance. See Tire Inspection and Rotation on
page 6‑70 and Tires on page 6‑57.
Notice: Tire sealant materials are not all the same.
A non-approved tire sealant could damage the
TPMS sensors. TPMS sensor damage caused by
using an incorrect tire sealant is not covered by the
vehicle warranty. Always use only the GM-approved
tire sealant available through your dealer or
included in the vehicle.
Factory-installed Tire Inflator Kits use a GM approved
liquid tire sealant. Using non-approved tire sealants
could damage the TPMS sensors. See Tire Sealant and
Compressor Kit on page 6‑80 for information regarding
the inflator kit materials and instructions.
