gauge. There will be a delay between the instant you
adjust the air pressure in a tire and when the system
updates the display. The TPM system is not intended to
provide you with notification of rapid air loss.

The following chart indicates the TPM system pressure
levels. A threshold is the level at which the TPM system
provides you with an indication.

High Pressure Threshold

45 psi (310 kPa )

Placard Pressure (Cold)

33 psi (227 kPa)

Low Pressure Threshold

25 psi (172 kPa)

NOTE:

A TPM system does not replace normal tire

maintenance.

CAUTION!

The TPM system has been optimized for the original
equipment tires and wheels. TPM system pressures
have been established for the tire size equipped on
your vehicle. Undesirable operation or sensor dam-
age may result when using replacement equipment
that is not of the same size, type, and/or style.
Aftermarket wheels can cause sensor damage. Do
not use tire sealant or balance beads if your vehicle
is equipped with TPM system as damage to the
sensors may result.
