How It Works
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
Monitors the vehicle’s tire pressures.
When the tire pressure drops
significantly below recommended
levels, the low tire pressure
indicator comes on and CHECK
TIRE PRESSURE appears on the
MID.
If there is a problem with the
system, CHECK TPMS SYSTEM
appears on the MID. See a dealer.
What to Do
1. Visually inspect the tires for damage.
2. Use a tire air pressure gauge to
check which tire(s) have low
pressure.
3. Inflate the tire(s), if necessary, to the
recommended pressures listed on
the label on the driver’s doorjamb.
