Tire Pressure Monitor
(if equipped)
The Tire Pressure Monitor alerts you
when a significant reduction in pressure
occurs in one or more of your vehicle’s
tires by illuminating the (low tire pres
sure) warning light on the instrument
panel. The low tire pressure warning
light will remain on until you correct thetire pressure.
You may also have a CHECK TIRE
PRESSURE message appear on theDIC (if equipped).
Correcting the Tire Pressure
When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you must fill the tire to the
proper tire inflation pressure. The Tireand Loading Information label shows thecorrect inflation pressure for the tireswhen they’re cold. “Cold” means yourvehicle has been sitting for at least threehours or driven no more than one mile.
You can temporarily remove the DIC
message by acknowledging it with yourDIC controls. However, at the next vehi
cle startup, the DIC message will reap
pear if the tire pressure has not been
corrected.
You may notice during cooler conditions
that the low tire pressure warning lightwill appear when the vehicle is first start
ed and then turn off as you start to drive
the vehicle. This could be an early indi cator that your tire pressures are gettinglow and need to be inflated to the properpressure.
See Section 5 of your Owner Manual.
Note: The Tire Pressure Monitor can
alert you about low tire pressure, but itdoesn’t replace normal monthly tiremaintenance.
