Tire pressure monitoring system
(J_) General notes
Each tire, incl uding the spare (if provided),
should be checked month ly when co ld and inflat
ed to the inf lation pressure recommended by the
ve hicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or
tire inflat ion pressure label. (If your vehicle has
tires of a d ifferent s ize tha n the s ize indicated on
the veh icle placa rd or t ire inflation pressure la
be l, you s hou ld determine the prope r tir e infla
tion pressure fo r th ose tires).
As an added safety feature, your ve hicle has been
equ ipped w ith a t ire pressu re monito ring system
(TPMS) that ill uminates a low tire p ress ure tell
tale whe n one or more of yo ur t ires is sign ificant
l y unde r-infla ted. Accord ingly, whe n the low tire
p ressure tellta le illuminates, yo u should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper press ure. D riving on a signifi
cantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to ove r
h eat and can lead to t ire failure. Under-inflation
a lso reduces fuel efficiency and ti re tread life,
and may affect the veh icle's handling and stop
p ing ability .
P lease note that the TPMS is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's re
sponsib il ity to ma inta in correct tire pressure,
even if u nder-inflation has not reached t he leve l
to tr igger illum inat io n of t he TPM S low tire p res
sure telltale.
Your veh icle has also been equ ipped w ith a TPMS
malfunct ion ind icator to indicate when the sys
tem is not operat ing properly. The TPMS ma l
f u nction ind icator is combined w ith the low tire
p ressure tellta le. Whe n the system det ects a
mal function, the te lltale wi ll flash fo r approxi
mate ly one mi nute and then remain continuous ly
illum inated. This sequence will continue upon
subseq uent ve hicle start-ups as long as the ma l
function ex ists .
W hen t he malfunctio n indicator is ill uminated,
the system may not be ab le to detect or signa l
low t ire press ure as intended. TPMS ma lfunctions
may occur for a var iety of reasons, including the
Wheels
insta llation o f replacement or alternate tires or
whee ls on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS
from functioning p roperly . Always check the
TPMS ma lfunction te lltale after replac ing one or
more tires or wheels on you r vehicle to ensure
t h at the rep lacement or a lternate tires a nd
wheels allow t he TPMS to continue to function
prope rly.
If the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
indicator appears
Applies to: vehicles with Tire Pressure Monitoring System in
dicator
The tire pressure indicator in the instrument
cluster informs you if the tire pressure is too low
or if there is a system malfunction.
U sing the ABS se nsors, the t ire pressure monitor
ing system compares the tire tread c ircumfer
ence and v ibration characterist ics of the ind ividu
al tires. If the pressu re changes in one o r more
t ir es, th is is indica ted in the Info tainment sys tem

avoid any hard steering or braking maneu
vers. Stop as soon as possible and check the
tires and their pressure.
- The driver is responsible for maintaining the
correct tire pressures. You must check the
tire pressures regularly.
-Under certain conditions (such as a sporty
driving style, winter conditions or unpaved
roads), the pressure monitor indicator may
be delayed .
- Do not use run-flat tires on your vehicle. Us
ing them when not permitted can lead to
vehicle damage or accidents .
(D Tips
- The tire pressure monitoring system can al
so stop working when there is an ESC mal
function.
- Using snow chains may result in a system
malfunction.

Tire pressure monitoring
system
ill General notes
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and inflat
ed to the inflation pressure recommended by the
vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or
tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has
tires of a different size than the size indicated on
the vehicle placard or tir e inflation pr essure la
bel, you should determine the proper tire infla
tion pressure for those tires).
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been
equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system
( T PMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure tell
tale when one or more of you r tires is significant
ly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure . Driving on a signifi
cant ly under-inflated t ire causes the tire to over
heat and can lead to tire failur e. Under-inflation
also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle's handling and stop-
ping ability.
