■After completing the tire change
The tire pressure warning
system must be reset. (P. 515)
■When using the spare tire
As the spare tire is not equipped with a tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter, low inflation pressure of the spare tire will not be indicated by
the tire pressure warnin g system. Also, if you replace the compact spare
tire after the tire pressure warning light comes on, the light remains on.
