• Seasonal temperature changes will affect tire pressure,

and the TPMS will monitor the actual tire pressure in

the tire.

Premium System
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) uses wireless

technology with wheel rim mounted electronic sensors to

monitor tire pressure levels. Sensors mounted to each

wheel as part of the valve stem transmit tire pressure

readings to the receiver module.
NOTE:

It is particularly important for you to check the

tire pressure in all of the tires on your vehicle monthly

and to maintain the proper pressure.

The TPMS consists of the following components:

• Receiver module,
• Four TPM sensors,
• Various TPMS messages, which display in the Elec-

tronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC), and

• TPM Telltale Light
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure Warnings

The “TPM Telltale Light” will illuminate in the

instrument cluster and a chime will sound when

tire pressure is low in one or more of the four

active road tires. In addition, the EVIC will display a

“LOW TIRE” message and a graphic showing the pres-

sure values of each tire with the low tire pressure values

flashing.
