2. Installing some form of aftermarket window tintingthat affects radio wave signals.
3. Snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings.
4. Using tire chains on the vehicle.
5. Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM sensors.
NOTE: Your vehicle is equipped with a regular size
spare wheel.
1. The spare tire has a tire pressure monitoring sensor, but it is not monitored until it is mounted in place of
any of the existing four road tires.
2. If you install the spare tire in place of a road tire that has a pressure below the low-pressure warning limit,
upon the next ignition key cycle, a chime will sound
and the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will
turn ON due to the low tire condition. Then, after driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15mph
(24km/h), the system will recognize the new sensor, so
turn off the telltale.
3. If a spare tire not equipped with tire pressure moni- toring sensor is used, then the Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing Telltale Light will turn ON, flashing for 75 seconds
and then remaining solid for each subsequent ignition
key cycle.
NOTE: For a correct Tire Pressure Monitoring behavior,
please wait for about 20 minutes in key-off during each
tire substitution.

Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR)
The GAWR is the maximum capacity of the front and rear
axles. Distribute the load over the front and rear axles
evenly. Make sure that you do not exceed either front or
rear GAWR.
WARNING!
Because the front wheels steer the vehicle, it is
important that you do not exceed the maximum front
or rear GAWR. A dangerous driving condition can
result if either rating is exceeded. You could lose
control of the vehicle and have a collision.
Tire Size
The tire size on the Vehicle Certification Label represents
the actual tire size on your vehicle. Replacement tires
must be equal to the load capacity of this tire size.
Rim Size
This is the rim size that is appropriate for the tire size
listed.
Inflation Pressure
This is the cold tire inflation pressure for your vehicle for
all loading conditions up to full GAWR.
Curb Weight
The curb weight of a vehicle is defined as the total weight
of the vehicle with all fluids, including vehicle fuel, at full
capacity conditions, and with no occupants or cargo
loaded into the vehicle. The front and rear curb weight
values are determined by weighing your vehicle on a
commercial scale before any occupants or cargo are
added.
