When the tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) is functioning
normally and the tires are properly
inflated, you will see the above
display on the multi-info rmation
display as it cycles through its main
menu. To
see the inflation pressures of all
four tires, press the SEL/RESET
button. The display changes as
shown above.
Each tire pressure is shown in PSI
(U.S. model s) or in kPa (Canadian
models). If
one or more of your vehicle tires
are low on pressu re, you will see a
‘‘CHECK TIRE PRESSURE’’
message in the display.
If there is a problem with the TPMS,
you will see a ‘‘CHECK TPMS
SYSTEM’’ message.

The TPMS can misinterpret the tire
pressure because of differences in
the air temperatures. For example, if
youcheckandfillyourtiresina
warm area, then drive in extremely
cold weather, the tire pressure will
be lower than measured and could
be underinflated and cause the
TPMS indicators to come on. Or, if
youcheckandadjustyourtire
pressu re in cooler conditions, and
drive into extremely hot conditions,
thetiresmaybecomeoverinflated.
However, the TPMS indicators will
not come on if the tires are
overinflated.
Refer to page for tire inflation
guidelines. Toselectthetirepressuremonitor,
press
the INFO button several times
with the ignition switch in the ON
(II) position.
Although
your tire pressure is
monitored, you must manually check
thetirepressuresmonthly.
Each tire, including the spare, should
be checked monthly when the
vehicle is cold, and set to the
recommended inflation pressure as
sp ecified on the vehicle placard and
intheowner’smanual(seepage ).
You will see the above display on the
multi-inf ormation display when all
tire pressures are normal.
