The TPMS indicator functions as both Low Tire Pressure Light and TPMS
Malfunction Indicator .
The indicator will illuminate if one or more tires is significantly underinflated,
or if a spare tire has been installed that does not have a TPMS device or when
the outside temperature drops considerably .
Inflate tire(s) to specifications using an accurate digital
tire pressure gauge to turn off Low Tire Pressure
Indicator . See front driver’s door jamb for PSI
specification . The Low Tire Pressure Position Indicator A is displayed on the LCD screen in the Instrument
Cluster when the tire(s) are underinflated .
When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS Malfunction Indicator will
blink for approximately one minute and then illuminate . See dealer for service .
