telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the
TPMS to continue to function properly.
The tire pressure monitoring system complies with part 15 of the FCC
rules and with RSS-210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Changing Tires with a TPMS
Note:Each road tire and full-size
spare is equipped with a tire
pressure sensor located inside the
tire/wheel cavity. The pressure
sensor is attached to the valve stem.
The pressure sensor is covered by
the tire and is not visible unless the
tire is removed. Care must be taken
when changing the tire to avoid
damaging the sensor.
It is recommended that you always have your tires serviced by an
authorized dealer.
The tire pressure should be checked periodically (at least monthly) using
an accurate tire gauge. SeeInflating Your Tiresin this chapter.
Understanding Your Tire Pressure Monitoring System
The tire pressure monitoring system measures pressure in your four road
tires and sends the tire pressure readings to your vehicle. The low tire
pressure warning light will turn on if the tire pressure is significantly low.
Once the light is illuminated, your tires are under-inflated and need to be
inflated to the manufacturer’s recommended tire pressure. Even if the
light turns on and a short time later turns off, your tire pressure still
needs to be checked.
When a new wheel and tire is installed
When one of your road tires is replaced by a new tire and wheel, the
TPMS sensor located in the new tire and wheel needs to be trained to
the vehicle.

TPMS training tools
The customer training tool, P/N 8C2Z-1A203-A, can be purchased from
any Ford dealer for training the system after maintenance has been
performed that requires system training. The tire pressure monitor
activation tool, P/N 204-363, is also available through the Rotunda
catalog. For either tool, follow the training instructions as outlined below.
TPMS sensor training procedure
Note:To reduce the chances of interference from another vehicle, TPMS
training should be performed at least three feet (one meter) away from
another Ford Motor Company vehicle undergoing the TPMS training
procedure at the same time.
Note:Do not wait more than two minutes between resetting each tire
sensor or the system will time-out and the entire procedure will have to
be repeated on all four wheels.
A double horn chirp indicates the need to repeat the procedure.
TPMS training procedure
Note:It is recommended that you read the entire procedure before
attempting.
Note:To enter the training mode, Steps 1–6 MUST be completed within
60 seconds.
1. Place the ignition in the off position and keep the key in the ignition.
2. Press and release the brake pedal.
3. Cycle the ignition from off to on three times ending in the on position
- DO NOT start the engine.
4. Press and hold the brake pedal for two seconds, then release.
5. Turn the ignition to off - DO NOT remove the key.
6. Cycle the ignition from off to on three times ending in on - DO NOT
start the engine.
If the training mode has been entered successfully, the horn will sound
once, the TPMS indicator will flash, and the information display will show
TRAIN LF TIRE.
If after repeated attempts to enter the training mode, the horn does not
sound, the TPMS indicator does not flash, and the information display
does not show TRAIN LF TIRE, seek service from your authorized
dealer.

Training procedure
Note:It may take up to six seconds to activate a tire pressure sensor.
During this time, the tool must remain in place at the valve stem.
1. Place the tool on the LF tire sidewall at the valve stem. Press and
release the test button on the tool. The horn will sound briefly to
indicate that the tire pressure sensor has been recognized by the
on-board module.
2. Within two minutes of the horn sounding, place the tool on the RF tire
sidewall of the valve stem and press and release the test button to train
the RF tire pressure sensor.
Note:Do not wait more than two
minutes between training each
sensor or the module will time out
and the entire procedure must be
repeated.
3. Repeat Step 2 for the RR and LR tires. The procedure is completed
after the last tire has been trained. When the training procedure is
complete, the information display (if equipped) will show TIRE
TRAINING COMPLETE. For vehicles not equipped with an information
display , successful completion of the training procedure will be verified
by turning the ignition switch to the off position without the horn
sounding. If the horn sounds twice when the switch is turned to the off
position, the training procedure was not successful.

When you believe your system is not operating properly
The main function of the tire pressure monitoring system is to warn you
when your tires need air. It can also warn you in the event the system is no
longer capable of functioning as intended. Please refer to the following
chart for information concerning your tire pressure monitoring system:

pressure. SeeInflating your tiresin
this chapter.
2. After inflating your tires to the
manufacturer’s recommended pressure
as shown on the Tire Label (located on
the edge of driver’s door or the
B-Pillar), the vehicle must be driven
for at least two minutes over 20 mph
(32 km/h) before the light turns off.

When inflating your tires
When putting air into your tires (such as at a gas station or in your
garage), the tire pressure monitoring system may not respond
immediately to the air added to your tires.
It may take up to two minutes of driving over 20 mph (32 km/h) for the
light to turn off after you have filled your tires to the recommended
inflation pressure.

How temperature affects your tire pressure
The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) monitors tire pressure in each
pneumatic tire. While driving in a normal manner, a typical passenger tire
inflation pressure may increase approximately 2 to 4 psi (14 to 28 kPa)
from a cold start situation. If the vehicle is stationary overnight with the
outside temperature significantly lower than the daytime temperature, the
tire pressure may decrease approximately 3 psi (21 kPa) for a drop of 30°F
(17°C) in ambient temperature. This lower pressure value may be detected
by the TPMS as being significantly lower than the recommended inflation
pressure and activate the TPMS warning light for low tire pressure. If the
low tire pressure warning light is on, visually check each tire to verify that
no tire is flat. (If one or more tires are flat, repair as necessary.) Check air
pressure in the road tires. If any tire is under-inflated, carefully drive the
vehicle to the nearest location where air can be added to the tires. Inflate
all the tires to the recommended inflation pressure.
CHANGING A ROAD WHEEL
WARNING:The use of tire sealants may damage your tire
pressure monitoring system and should not be used. However, if
you must use a sealant, the TPMS sensor and valve stem on the wheel
must be replaced by an authorized Ford dealer.
WARNING:SeeTire Pressure Monitoring Systemin this
chapter for important information. If the tire pressure monitor
sensor becomes damaged, it will no longer function.
Note:The tire pressure monitoring system indicator light will illuminate
when the spare tire is in use until the spare’s TPMS sensor is trained.
If you get a flat tire while driving, do not apply the brake heavily.
Instead, gradually decrease your speed. Hold the steering wheel firmly
and slowly move to a safe place on the side of the road.
Have a flat serviced by an authorized dealer in order to prevent damage
to the TPMS sensors, seeTire Pressure Monitoring Systemearlier in
the chapter. During repairing or replacing of the flat tire, have the
authorized dealer inspect the TPMS sensor for damage.
