274SAFETY
NOTE:It is not required to have the engine running to
enter Tire Fill Alert mode.
The hazard lamps will come on to confirm the
vehicle is in Tire Fill Alert mode.
If the hazard lamps do not come on while inflating
the tire, the TPMS sensor may be in a null spot
preventing the TPMS sensor signal from being
received. In this case, the vehicle may need to be
moved either forward or backward slightly to exit
the null spot.
When Tire Fill Alert mode is entered, the tire
pressure display screen will be displayed in the
instrument cluster.
Operation:
The horn will chirp once to let the user know
when to stop filling the tire, when it reaches
recommended pressure.
The horn will chirp three times if the tire is over -
filled and will continue to chirp every five
seconds if the user continues to inflate the tire.
The horn will chirp once again when enough air
is let out to reach proper inflation level.
The horn will also chirp three times if the tire is
then underinflated and will continue to chirp
every five seconds if the user continues to
deflate the tire.
SELECTABLE TIRE FILL ALERT (STFA) —
IF EQUIPPED
The Selectable Tire Fill Alert (STFA) system is an
optional feature that is included as part of the
normal Tire Fill Alert system. The system is
designed to allow the customer to select a
pressure to inflate or deflate the vehicle's front and
rear axle tires to and to provide feedback to the
customer while inflating or deflating the vehicle's
tires.
In the Selectable Tire Fill Alert application, which is
located in the apps menu of the Uconnect system,
the customer will be able to select a pressure
setting for both the front and rear axle tire
pressures by scrolling through a pressure range
from XX to 15 psi in 1 psi increments for each axle
setting. XX = the vehicle’s cold placard pressure
values for the front and rear axles as shown on the
vehicle placard pressure label.
NOTE:The Tire Fill Alert feature disables every time the
ignition is placed in the OFF position. The feature
must be re-enabled through the radio each time
the ignition is placed back in the ON/RUN position
Ú page 191.
The customer may also store the pressure values
chosen for each axle in the radio as a preset
pressure. The customer will be allowed to store up
to two sets of preset values in the radio for the
front and rear axle pressure values. Once the customer selects the tire pressures for
the front and rear axles that they want to inflate or
deflate to, they can begin inflating or deflating one
tire at a time.
NOTE:The STFA system will only support inflating or
deflating one tire at a time.
The customer may choose to disable or enable the
STFA feature through use of the TFA settings in the
radio. If STFA appears grayed out it must be turned
on prior to selecting.
In order to use STFA, the Tire Fill Alert feature must
be enabled through the radio Ú
page 191.
The system will be activated when the TPMS
receiver module detects a change in tire pressure.
The ignition must be in the RUN mode, with the
transmission in PARK (P).
The hazard lamps will come on to confirm the
vehicle is in Tire Fill Alert mode.
If the hazard lamps do not come on while inflating
or deflating the tire, the TPMS sensor may be in a
null spot preventing the TPMS sensor signal from
being received. In this case, the vehicle may need
to be moved either forward or backward slightly to
exit the null spot.
When Tire Fill Alert mode is entered, the tire
pressure display screen will be displayed in the
instrument cluster.

PERIODIC SAFETY CHECKS YOU SHOULD
M
AKE OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
Tires
Examine tires for excessive tread wear and uneven
wear patterns. Check for stones, nails, glass, or
other objects lodged in the tread or sidewall.
Inspect the tread for cuts and cracks. Inspect
sidewalls for cuts, cracks, and bulges. Check the
lug nuts/bolt torque for tightness. Check the tires
(including spare) for proper cold inflation pressure.
Lights
Have someone observe the operation of brake
lights and exterior lights while you work the
controls. Check turn signal and high beam
indicator lights on the instrument panel.
Door Latches
Check for proper closing, latching, and locking.
Fluid Leaks
Check area under the vehicle after overnight
parking for fuel, coolant, oil, or other fluid leaks.
Also, if gasoline fumes are detected or if fuel or
brake fluid leaks are suspected, the cause should
be located and corrected immediately.
EXHAUST GAS The best protection against carbon monoxide entry
into the vehicle body is a properly maintained
engine exhaust system.
Whenever a change is noticed in the sound of the
exhaust system, when exhaust fumes can be
detected inside the vehicle, or when the underside
or rear of the vehicle is damaged, have an
authorized dealer inspect the complete exhaust
system and adjacent body areas for broken,
damaged, deteriorated, or mispositioned parts.
Open seams or loose connections could permit
exhaust fumes to seep into the passenger
compartment. In addition, inspect the exhaust
system each time the vehicle is raised for
lubrication or oil change. Replace as required.
WARNING!
Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain
carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless and
odorless. Breathing it can make you
unconscious and can eventually poison you. To
avoid breathing (CO), follow these safety tips:
Do not run the engine in a closed garage or in
confined areas any longer than needed to
move your vehicle in or out of the area.
If you are required to drive with the trunk/lift -
gate/rear doors open, make sure that all
windows are closed and the climate control
BLOWER switch is set at high speed. DO NOT
use the recirculation mode.
If it is necessary to sit in a parked vehicle with
the engine running, adjust your heating or
cooling controls to force outside air into the
vehicle. Set the blower at high speed.
