TIRE PRESSURE

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)

This vehicle is equipped with the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). It
monitors tire pressure of all tires except
the spare. When the low tire pressure
warning light is lit and the CHECK TIRE
PRESSURE warning appears in the ve-
hicle information display, one or more of
your tires is significantly under-inflated. If
equipped, the system also displays pres-
sure of all tires (except the spare tire) on
the display screen by sending a signal
from a sensor that is installed in each
wheel.

The TPMS will activate only when the
vehicle is driven at speeds above 16 MPH
(25 km/h). Also, this system may not de-
tect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for
example a flat tire while driving).

For more details, refer to “Low tire pres-
sure warning light” in the “Instruments and
controls” section and “Flat tire” in the “In
case of emergency” section.

Tire inflation pressure

Check the tire pressures (including the
spare) often and always prior to long dis-
tance trips. The recommended tire pres-
sure specifications are shown on the
F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. certification label
or the Tire and Loading Information label
under the “Cold Tire Pressure” heading.
The Tire and Loading Information label is
affixed to the driver side center pillar. Tire
pressures should be checked regularly
because:

● Most tires naturally lose air over time.
● Tires can lose air suddenly when

driven over potholes or other objects
or if the vehicle strikes a curb while
parking.
