TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM (TPMS)

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) will warn
the driver of a low tire pressure based on the vehicle
recommended cold tire pressure.

The tire pressure will vary with temperature by about
1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (–11°C). This means that when
the outside temperature decreases, the tire pressure will
decrease. Tire pressure should always be set based on
cold inflation tire pressure. This is defined as the tire
pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for at least
three hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after a
three-hour period. Refer to the “Tires – General Infor-
mation” in this section for information on how to
properly inflate the vehicle’s tires.

The tire pressure will

also increase as the vehicle is driven - this is normal and
there should be no adjustment for this increased pres-
sure.
