WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

NOTE:
Tire pressures change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per 12° F (7° C) of air temperature change.
Keep this in mind when checking tire pressure inside a garage, especially in the Winter. Example:
If garage temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the outside temperature is 32°F (0°C), then the cold
tire inflation pressure should be increased by 3 psi (21 kPa), which equals 1 psi (7 kPa) for every
12°F (7°C) for this outside temperature condition.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures
and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable
system operation or sensor damage may result when using replacement equipment that is not
of the same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket wheels can cause sensor damage. Do not use
tire sealant from a can, or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as damage
to the sensors may result.

-SeatBeltReminderLight
When the ignition switch is first turned to the ON/RUN position, this light will turn on for four to
eight seconds as a bulb check. During the bulb check, if the driver's seat belt is unbuckled, a
chime will sound. After the bulb check or when driving, if the driver or front passenger seat belt
remains unbuckled, the Seat Belt Indicator Light will flash or remain on continuously. Refer to
“Seat Belt Systems” in “Things To Know Before Starting” in the OM on your DVD for further
information.
-BrakeWarningLight
This light monitors various brake functions, including brake fluid level and parking brake appli-
cation. If the brake light turns on it may indicate that the parking brake is applied, that the brake
fluid level is low, or that there is a problem with the anti-lock brake system reservoir.

environment. This type of vehicle use is considered Severe Duty.
Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:
•Checkengineoillevel.
•Checkwindshieldwasherfluidlevel.
• Check tire pressure and look for unusual wear or damage. Rotate tires at the first sign of
irregular wear, even if it occurs before the oil indicator system turns on.
•Checkthefluidlevelsofthecoolantreservoir,brakemastercylinder,andpowersteeringand
fill as needed.
• Check function of all interior and exterior lights .
