• The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) will

warn the driver of a low tire pressure if the tire
pressure falls below the low pressure warning thresh-
old for any reason, including low temperature effects.

• The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) will

continue to warn the driver of low tire pressure as long
as the condition exists, and will not turn off until the
tire pressure is at or above recommended cold placard
pressure. Once the low tire pressure warning telltale
has been illuminated, the tire pressure must be in-
creased to the recommended cold placard pressure in
order for the Tire Pressure Monitoring System warning
telltale to be turned off. The system will automatically
update and the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
warning telltale will extinguish once the updated tire
pressures have been received.

NOTE:

The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 10

minutes above 15 mph (25 km/h) to receive this information.

tain the proper pressure.
