CAUTION
Adjust the tire pressures while the tires
are cool. Because the air pressure in the
tires
fluctuates depending on the
temperature, before adjusting the tire
pressures, let the vehicle sit for an hour or
drive it only within a 1.6 km (1 mile)
distance. If the tire pressures are adjusted
while the tires are warm, the tire
pressures may decrease below the
specified air pressure after cooling down
which could turn on the warning light. In
addition, because the air pressure in the
tires decreases when the ambient
temperature is low, if the ambient
temperature increases, an illuminated
TPMS warning light may turn off. Under
any circumstances, always adjust the tire
pressures while the tires are cool.
After adjusting the tire pressures, the
TPMS warning light turns off. If the TPMS
warning light does not turn off, drive the
vehicle at a speed of about 25 km (16
mph) or faster for 3 minutes or longer
and make sure the warning light turns
off.
If the TPMS warning light remains on
even after adjusting the tire pressures, one
of the tires may have a puncture.
Refer to Changing a Flat Tire on page 7-7.
