been received. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to
20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) to receive this
information.
Check TPMS Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will flash on
and off for 75 seconds and remain on solid when a system
fault is detected, an audible chime will be activated and the
“Tire Pressure Monitoring Unavailable” text message will
display. If the ignition key is cycled, this sequence will
repeat providing the system fault still exists. The Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will turn off when the
fault condition no longer exists. A system fault can occur
with any of the following scenarios:
1. Jamming due to electronic devices or driving next tofacilities emitting the same radio frequencies as the TPM
sensors.
2. Installing some form of aftermarket window tinting that 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 15 mph (24 km/h), the
system will recognize the new sensor, and turn off the
telltale.
3. If a spare tire not equipped with tire pressure monitor- ing sensor is used, then the Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light will turn ON, flashing for 75 seconds and
then remaining solid for each subsequent ignition key
cycle.
NOTE: For correct Tire Pressure Monitoring behavior,
please wait for about 20 minutes in key-off during each tire
substitution.
