accident andcould result inserious personal
injury. Check thetire pressure forallfour
tires. Adjust thetire pressure tothe recom-
mended COLDtirepressure shownonthe
tire placard toturn thelow tirepressure
warning lightoff.Ifthe light stillilluminates
while driving afteradjusting thetire pres-
sure, atire may beflat. Ifyou have aflat tire,

pressure warninglightislit, one ormore ofyour
tires issignificantly under-inflated. Ifthe vehicle is
being driven withlowtirepressure, theTPMS will
activate andwarn youofitby the low tirepressure
warning light(inthe meter panel).This system will
activate onlywhen thevehicle isdriven atspeeds
