To see the inf lation pressures of all
f our tires, press the SEL/RESET
button. The display changes as
shown above.Each tire pressure is shown in
PSI (U.S. models) or in kPa
(Canadian models).
Each tire has its own pressure
sensor. If the air pressure of a tire
becomes significantly low, the
sensor in that tire immediately
sends a signal that causes the low
tire pressure/TPMS indicator
in the instrument panel to come on.
If this happens, you will see
which tire is losing pressure on the
multi- information display
along with a ‘‘CHECK
TIRE PRESSURE’’ message.

When VSA is off, the VSA OFF
indicator comes on as a reminder.
When VSA activates, you will see the
VSA system indicator blink.
If this indicator comes on while
driving, pull to the side of the road
when it is saf e, and turn of f the
engine. Reset the system by
restarting the engine. If the VSA
system indicator stays on or comes
back on while driving, have the VSA
system inspected by your dealer.The main f unction of the
VSA system is generally known as
Electronic Stability Control (ESC).
The system also includes a traction
control f unction. If the low tire pressure/TPMS
indicator comes on, see page .
Or, if the multi-inf ormation display
shows a ‘‘CHECK TPMS
SYSTEM’’ message with the
indicator f lashing, see page . If the low tire pressure indicator or
TPMS indicator comes on, see
page .
You will also see a ‘‘CHECK VSA
SYSTEM’’ message on the multi-
inf ormation display if there is a
problem with the VSA system. If the indicator does not come on
when the ignition switch is turned to
the ON (II) position, there may be a
problem with the VSA system. Have
your dealer inspect your vehicle as
soon as possible.
In this case, you cannot turn of f the
VSA using the OFF switch again.
Without VSA, your vehicle will have
normal braking and cornering ability,
but it will not have VSA traction and
stability enhancement.
