How to Check
Use a good quality pocket-type gage to check tire
pressure. You cannot tell if your tires are properly
inated simply by looking at them. Radial tires
may look properly inated even when they are
underinated. Check the tire’s ination pressure
when the tires are cold. Cold means your vehicle
has been sitting for at least three hours or driven
no more than 1 mile (1.6 km).
Remove the valve cap from the tire valve stem.
Press the tire gage rmly onto the valve to
get a pressure measurement. If the cold tire
ination pressure matches the recommended
pressure on the Tire and Loading Information
label, no further adjustment is necessary.
If the ination pressure is low, add air until you
reach the recommended amount.
If you overll the tire, release air by pushing on
the metal stem in the center of the tire valve.
Recheck the tire pressure with the tire gage.
Be sure to put the valve caps back on the valve
stems. They help prevent leaks by keeping out
dirt and moisture.
Tire Pressure Monitor System
Your vehicle has a Tire Pressure Monitor
System (TPMS). This system uses radio and
sensor technology to check tire pressure levels.
TPMS sensors are mounted onto each tire
and wheel assembly on your vehicle, except
the spare tire. The TPMS sensors monitor the
air pressure in your vehicle’s tires and transmit
the tire pressure readings to a receiver located
in the vehicle.
When a low tire pressure condition is detected,
the TPMS will illuminate the low tire pressure
warning light located in the instrument panel
cluster, and at the same time display the LOW
TIRE warning message on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). The low tire pressure warning
light and the LOW TIRE warning message appear
at each ignition cycle until the tires are inated
to the correct ination pressure. For additional
information and details about the DIC operation
and displays seeDIC Controls and Displays
on page 198andDIC Warnings and Messages
on page 202.

TPMS Sensor Identication Codes
Each TPMS sensor has a unique identication
code. Any time you replace one or more of
the TPMS sensors or rotate your vehicle’s tires,
the identication codes will need to be matched
to the new tire/wheel position. The sensors
are matched to the tire/wheel positions in the
following order: driver’s side front tire, passenger’s
side front tire, passenger’s side rear tire, and
driver’s side rear tire using a TPMS diagnostic
tool. See your dealer for service.
The TPMS sensors may also be matched to each
tire/wheel position by increasing or decreasing
the tire’s air pressure. If increasing the tire’s
air pressure, do not exceed the maximum ination
pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall.
You will have one minute to match the rst
tire/wheel position, and ve minutes overall, to
match all four tire/wheel positions. If it takes
longer than one minute, to match the rst tire
and wheel, or more than ve minutes to match
all four tire and wheel positions the matching
process stops and you will need to start over.The TPMS sensor matching procedure is
outlined below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON with the
engine off.
3. Turn the exterior lamp switch from AUTO
to OFF four times within three seconds.
A double horn chirp will sound and the TPMS
low tire warning light starts ashing. The
double horn chirp and ashing TPMS warning
light indicates the TPMS matching process
has started. The TPMS warning light should
continue ashing throughout the matching
procedure. The LOW TIRE message displays
on the Driver Information Center (DIC).
4. Start with the driver’s side front tire.
5. Remove the valve cap from the valve cap
stem. Activate the TPMS sensor by increasing
or decreasing the tire’s air pressure for
10 seconds, then stop and listen for a single
horn chirp. The single horn chirp should sound
within 15 seconds, conrming that the sensor
identication code has been matched to this
tire and wheel position. If you do not hear the
conrming single horn chirp, turn the ignition
switch to LOCK and start over beginning with
