If a rear window is open, there may be a buffeting wind noise inside the vehicle. Opening
a front window slightly when a rear window is open will prevent this noise from occurring.
See Keys, Doors and Windows in your Owner Manual.

Tire Pressure Monitor
The Tire Pressure Monitor alerts you when the tire pressure in any tire becomes too low
by illuminating theLow Tire Pressurewarning light on the instrument cluster. The
warning light will remain on until the tire pressure is corrected by adding the proper
amount of air to the tire(s). Refer to the Tire & Loading Information label in the driver’s
door opening for the recommended tire pressures. Once the tires are properly filled with
air, drive the vehicle and the warning light will turn off.
You may notice during cooler outdoor temperatures that the low tire pressure warning light
will turn on when the vehicle is first started and then turn off as you drive and tire pressure
expands. This may be an early indicator that your tire pressures are getting low and the
tires need to be inflated to the correct pressure.
Note:The Tire Pressure Monitor can alert you about low tire pressure, but it doesn’t replace normal
monthly tire maintenance. It is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressures.
See Vehicle Care in your Owner Manual.
