Vehicle Care

4. Start with the driver side

front tire.

5. Place the relearn tool against

the tire sidewall, near the valve
stem. Then press the button to
activate the TPMS sensor.
A horn chirp confirms that the
sensor identification code has
been matched to this tire and
wheel position.

6. Proceed to the passenger side

front tire, and repeat the
procedure in Step 5.

7. Proceed to the passenger side

rear tire, and repeat the
procedure in Step 5.

8. Proceed to the driver side rear

tire, and repeat the procedure in
Step 5.

9. After hearing the confirming horn

chirp for the driver side rear tire,
the horn sounds two more times
to signal the tire learning mode
is no longer active. Turn the
ignition to LOCK/OFF.

10. Set all four tires to the

recommended air pressure
level as indicated on the Tire
and Loading Information label.

The tires air pressure will not
appear on the screen until driving

Tire Inspection

We recommend that the tires,
including the spare tire, if the
vehicle has one, be inspected
for signs of wear or damage at
least once a month.

Replace the tire if:

.

The indicators at three or
more places around the tire
can be seen.

.

There is cord or fabric
showing through the tire's
rubber.

.

The tread or sidewall is
cracked, cut, or snagged
deep enough to show cord or
fabric.

.

The tire has a bump, bulge,
or split.

.

The tire has a puncture, cut,
or other damage that cannot
be repaired well because of
the size or location of the
damage.

Tire Rotation

If the vehicle has non-directional
tires, they should be rotated
every 12 000 km/7,500 mi. See
Maintenance Schedule on
page 11‑3
.

Tires are rotated to achieve a
uniform wear for all tires. The
first rotation is the most
important.
