In Brief

The low tire pressure warning light
alerts to a significant loss in
pressure of one of the vehicle's
tires. If the warning light comes on,
stop as soon as possible and inflate
the tires to the recommended
pressure shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See
Vehicle Load Limits on page 9‑12.
The warning light will remain on until
the tire pressure is corrected.

During cooler conditions, the low tire
pressure warning light may appear
when the vehicle is first started and
then turn off. This may be an early
indicator that the tire pressures are
getting low and the tires need to be
inflated to the proper pressure.

The TPMS does not replace normal
monthly tire maintenance. Maintain
the correct tire pressures.

See Tire Pressure Monitor System
on page 10‑58

Compressor Kit

This vehicle may come with a spare
tire and tire changing equipment or
a tire sealant and compressor kit.

and tire changing equipment, see If
a Tire Goes Flat on page 10‑70

Engine Oil Life System

The engine oil life system calculates
engine oil life based on vehicle use
and displays the CHANGE ENGINE
OIL SOON message when it is time
to change the engine oil and filter.
The oil life system should be reset
to 100% only following an oil
change.

Resetting the Oil Life System

1. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN with

the engine off.

2. Fully press and release the

accelerator pedal three times
within five seconds.
