NOTE:

After inflation, the vehicle may need to be driven for 20 minutes before the flashing light

will turn off.

Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is

the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation

has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low EVIC display.

Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate

when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is

combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction,

the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously

illuminated. This sequence will continue each time the vehicle is restarted as long as

the malfunction exists.

When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect

or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of

reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the

vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS

malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle, to

ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue

to function properly.

NOTE:

Tire pressures change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per 12° F (7° C) of air

temperature change. Keep this in mind when checking tire pressure inside a garage,

especially in the Winter. Example: If garage temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the

outside temperature is 32°F (0°C), then the cold tire inflation pressure should be

increased by 3 psi (21 kPa), which equals 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (7°C) for this

outside temperature condition.

CAUTION!

The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS

pressures and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your

vehicle. Undesirable system operation or sensor damage may result when using

replacement equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style. Aftermar-

ket wheels can cause sensor damage. Do not use tire sealant from a can, or

balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors

may result.
