■Tire inflation pressure
Displays inflation pressure of ea ch tire. There is no correlation
between the order of the display ed values and the tire positions.
If the inflation pressure of any tire drops a certain amount below
the tire inflation pressure value currently memorized in the system,
the displayed values will be highlighted.
It may take a few minutes to display the tire inflation pressure after the
engine switch is turned to the “ON” position (vehicles without smart key
system) or the “POWER” switch is turned to ON mode (vehicles with
smart key system). It may also take a few minutes to display the tire
inflation pressure after inflation pressure has been adjusted.
If the tire pressure warning light is on or flashing, a message describing
the situation will be displayed.
