Vehicle care175
When the system detects a
malfunction, w will flash for approx.
one minute and then remain
continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long
as the malfunction exists.
When w is illuminated, the system
may not be able to detect or signal low tyre pressure as intended.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring Operation
The TPMS is designed to warn the
driver when a low tyre pressure
condition exists. TPMS sensors are
mounted onto each tyre and wheel
assembly, excluding the spare tyre
and wheel assembly. The TPMS
sensors monitor the air pressure in
the tyres and transmit the tyre
pressure readings to a receiver
located in the vehicle.
When a low tyre pressure condition is
detected, w illuminates. Stop as soon
as possible and inflate the tyres to the
recommended tyre pressure 3 173.
Additionally a warning message or a
warning code is displayed in the
Driver Information Centre 3 94.
The low tyre pressure control indicator and a warning message or
code come on at each ignition cycle
until the tyres are inflated to the
correct tyre pressure.
TPMS Malfunction Indicator and
Message Code The TPMS will not function properly if
one or more of the TPMS sensors are
missing or inoperable. When the
system detects a malfunction, w
flashes for approx. one minute and then illuminates. Additionally a
warning message or code is
displayed.
The indication by the TPMS
malfunction indicator and a warning
message or code will come on at each ignition cycle until the problem iscorrected. Some of the conditions
that can cause these to come on are:
■ One of the tyres has been replaced
with the spare tyre which does not
have a TPMS sensor.
■ The TPMS sensor matching process was not done or not
completed successfully after
rotating the tyres. The malfunction
light and the warning message or
code should go off after
successfully completing the sensor
176Vehicle care
matching process. See "TPMSSensor Matching Process" later in
this section.
■ One or more TPMS sensors are missing or damaged. The warning
message or code and the
malfunction light should go off
when the TPMS sensors are
installed and the sensor matching
process is performed successfully.
Consult your workshop for service.
■ Replacement tyres or wheels do not match the original equipment
tyres or wheels. Tyres and wheels other than those recommended
could prevent the TPMS from
functioning properly.
■ Operating electronic devices or being near facilities using radio
wave frequencies similar to the
TPMS could cause the TPMS
sensors to malfunction.
If the TPMS is not functioning
properly, it cannot detect or signal
a low tyre condition. Consult your
workshop for service if the TPMS
malfunction light and a warningmessage or code come on and stay
on.
TPMS Sensor Matching Process
Each TPMS sensor has a unique
identification code. The identification
code must be matched to a new tyre/ wheel position after rotating the tyres
or replacing one or more of the TPMS
sensors. The TPMS sensor matching
process should also be performed
after replacing a spare tyre with a
road tyre containing the TPMS
sensor.
The malfunction light and the warning message or code should go off at the
next ignition cycle. The sensors are
matched to the tyre/wheel positions,
using a TPMS relearn tool, in the
following order: driver side front tyre,
passenger side front tyre, passenger side rear tyre, and driver side rear.
Consult your workshop for service or
to purchase a relearn tool. There are
two minutes to match the first tyre/
wheel position, and five minutes
overall to match all four tyre/wheelpositions. If it takes longer, the
matching process stops and must be
restarted.
The TPMS sensor matching process
is:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition on.
3. Use the MENU button on the turn
signal lever to select the Vehicle
Information Menu in the Driver
Information Centre (DIC).
4. Use the thumbwheel to scroll to the tyre pressure menu.
5. Press the SET/CLR button to
begin the sensor matching
process. A message requesting
acceptance of the process should
display.
6. Press the SET/CLR button again
to confirm the selection. The horn sounds twice to signal the
receiver is in relearn mode.
7. Start with the driver side front tyre.
8. Place the relearn tool against the tyre sidewall, near the valve stem.
Then press the button to activate
the TPMS sensor. A horn chirp
