Vehicle Care

The TPMS sensor matching
process is:

2. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN with

the engine off.

3. Press the Remote Keyless Entry

(RKE) transmitter's

Q

buttons at the same time for
approximately five seconds. The
horn sounds twice to signal the
receiver is in relearn mode and
the TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE
message displays on the DIC
screen.

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. The horn sounds two
times to indicate the sensor
identification code has been
matched to the driver side rear
tire, and the TPMS sensor
matching process is no longer
active. The TIRE LEARNING
ACTIVE message on the DIC
display screen goes off.

9. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF.

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.
