Tire Pressure Monitor Operation
The Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) system uses radio
and sensor technology to check tire pressure levels.
Sensors, mounted on each road wheel, transmit
tire pressure readings to a receiver located in the trunk.
Tire pressure status and tire pressure warnings are
shown on the Driver Information Center (DIC) display.
SeeDriver Information Center (DIC) on page 3-62,
for details regarding DIC controls and displays.
The system operates on a radio frequency subject to
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and
with Industry and Science Canada.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation.This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry and
Science Canada. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.
Changes or modications to this system by anyone
other than an authorized service facility could void
authorization to use this equipment.
If the TPM system detects low tire pressure, below
25 psi (172 kPa), or high tire pressure, above 38 psi
(262 kPa), a message, CHECK TIRE PRESSURE, will
appear on the Driver Information Center (DIC)
display. By pressing the INFO button, the DIC screen
will show which tire(s) has the low or high pressure
condition. SeeInation - Tire Pressure on page 5-74for
information regarding correct tire ination. If a tire is
low, you should stop as soon as possible and check all
your tires for damage. If a tire is at, seeIf a Tire
Goes Flat on page 5-85.

CAUTION: (Continued)
Be sure to use the correct wheel nuts. If you
have to replace them, be sure to get new GM
original equipment wheel nuts. Stop
somewhere as soon as you can and have the
nuts tightened with a torque wrench to the
proper torque specication. See “Capacities
and Specications” in the Index for wheel nut
torque specication.
Notice:Improperly tightened wheel nuts can lead to
brake pulsation and rotor damage. To avoid
expensive brake repairs, evenly tighten the wheel
nuts in the proper sequence and to the proper torque
specication. See “Capacities and Specications” in
the index for the wheel nut torque specication.
Do not try to put a wheel cover on your compact spare
tire. It will not t. Store the wheel cover and lug nut caps
in the trunk until you have the at tire repaired or

windshield from outside your vehicle. The VIN also
appears on the Vehicle Certication and Service Parts
labels and the certicates of title and registration.
Engine Identication
The 8th character in your VIN is the engine code. This
code will help you identify your engine, specications
and replacement parts.
Service Parts Identication Label
You will nd this label on the under side of the spare tire
cover in the trunk. It is very helpful if you ever need to
order parts. On this label is:
your VIN,
the model designation,
