Tire pressure monitoring system (tpms) – HONDA 2011 Odyssey User Manual
Page 579
Refer to page
for tire inflation
guidelines.
If there is a problem with the TPMS,
this indicator begins to flash. It stops
flashing after approximately 1
minute, then stays on. You will also
see a ‘‘CHECK TPMS SYSTEM’’
message on the multi-information
display (see page
Although your tire pressure is
monitored, you must manually check
the tire pressures monthly.
Each tire, including the spare, should
be checked monthly when cold, and
set to the recommended inflation
pressure as specified on the tire
information label and in the owner’s
manual (see page
).
If you think you can safely drive a
short distance to a service station,
proceed slowly, and inflate the tire to
the recommended pressure shown
on the driver’s doorjamb.
If the tire is flat, or if the tire
pressure is too low to continue
driving, replace the tire with the
compact spare tire (see page
).
The TPMS can misinterpret the tire
pressure because of differences in
air temperature. For example, if you
check and fill your tires in a warm
area, then drive in extremely cold
weather, the tire pressure will be
lower than measured and could be
underinflated and cause the low tire
pressure/TPMS indicator to come
on. Or, if you check and adjust your
tire pressure in cooler conditions,
and drive into extremely hot
conditions, the tires may become
overinflated. However, the low tire
pressure/TPMS indicator will not
come on if the tires are overinflated.
