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 .
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
REMINDER: Consult your dealer for service if Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s) .

environmental conditions, vehicle weight and vehicle aerodynamics . Below are tips on how to help improve fuel economy:
For more information on Fuel Economy, you can snap the QR code above to view a video or refer to the brochure “GETTING MORE OUT OF EVERY GALLON, FUEL-SAVING TIPS TO DRIVE BY” available at your local dealership.
REMINDER: Driving range varies depending on a vehicle’s fuel tank size, (e .g ., 12-gal . vs . 24-gal) . Even though the two vehicles MPG may be the same, the vehicle with the larger tank will have the greater range .
•Keep your vehicle in good condition with regular
maintenance
•Don’t let the engine idle longer than necessary
•Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating smoothly and at
a moderate rate
•Keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure
•Travel lightly, without carrying unnecessary weight in
