pressure listed on the tire sidewall. See
Tire Sidewall Labeling0345 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0220.
If the tire is overinflated by more than
35 kPa (5 psi), the horn will sound multiple
times and the turn signal lamp will continue
to flash for several seconds after filling
stops. To release and correct the pressure,
while the turn signal lamp is still flashing,
briefly press the center of the valve stem.
When the recommended pressure is reached,
the horn sounds once.
If the turn signal lamp does not flash within
15 seconds after starting to inflate the tire,
the tire fill alert has not been activated or is
not working.
If the hazard warning flashers are on, the
tire fill alert visual feedback will not work
properly.
The TPMS will not activate the tire fill alert
properly under the following conditions:
.There is interference from an external
device or transmitter.
.The air pressure from the inflation device
is not sufficient to inflate the tire.
.There is a malfunction in the TPMS.
.There is a malfunction in the horn or turn
signal lamps.
.The identification code of the TPMS
sensor is not registered to the system.
.The battery of the TPMS sensor is low.
If the tire fill alert does not operate due to
TPMS interference, move the vehicle about
1 m (3 ft) back or forward and try again.
If the tire fill alert feature is not working,
use a tire pressure gauge.
TPMS Sensor Matching Process
Each TPMS sensor has a unique
identification code. The identification code
needs to be matched to a new tire/wheel
position after rotating the vehicle’s tires or
replacing one or more of the TPMS sensors.
Also, the TPMS sensor matching process
should be performed after replacing a spare
tire with a road tire containing the TPMS
sensor. The malfunction light and the DIC
message should go off at the next ignition
cycle. The sensors are matched to the tire/
wheel positions, using a TPMS relearn tool,
in the following order: driver side front tire,
passenger side front tire, passenger side rear
tire, and driver side rear. See your dealer for
service or to purchase a relearn tool. A TPMS relearn tool can also be purchased.
See Tire Pressure Monitor Sensor Activation
Tool at www.gmtoolsandequipment.com or
call 1-800-GM TOOLS (1-800-468-6657).
There are two minutes to match the first
tire/wheel position, and five minutes overall
to match all four tire/wheel positions. If it
takes longer, the matching process stops
and must be restarted.
The TPMS sensor matching process is:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition on without starting the vehicle.
3. Uplevel DIC Only: Make sure the Tire Pressure info page option is turned on.
The info pages on the DIC can be turned
on and off through the Options menu.
See Driver Information Center (DIC) (Base
Level) 0124 or
Driver Information Center (DIC) (Midlevel
and Uplevel) 0125.
4. If the vehicle has an uplevel DIC, use the DIC controls on the right side of the
steering wheel to scroll to the Tire
Pressure screen under the DIC info page.
If the vehicle has a base level DIC, use
the trip odometer reset stem to scroll to
the Tire Pressure screen.

The system is compatible with trailer tires
that have placard pressure values from 103 -
689 kpa (15 - 100 psi). The hole in the wheel
for the tire stem must be 11.43 mm
(0.453 in) or 15.88 mm (0.625 in) in
diameter. Use of the pressure sensors on a
wheel with a different stem hole size could
result in loss of air from the tire.
If a low trailer tire pressure condition is
detected, the TTPMS displays a warning
message on the DIC. If the warning message
is displayed, stop as soon as possible and
inflate the tires to the recommended
pressure shown on the tire placard on the
trailer.
In addition, the TTPMS monitors the
temperature of the trailer tires. If the
system detects a high temperature on one
or more of the trailer tires, a warning
message will be displayed on the DIC. If this
warning message is displayed, stop as soon
as possible, and inspect the overheated
trailer tire. Common causes for high trailer
tire temperature are underinflation,
overloading, or tire damage.TTPMS Malfunction Message
The TTPMS will not function properly if one
or more of the trailer tire sensors are
missing or inoperable. If the system detects
a malfunction, a DIC message indicates that
the system requires service. Some of the
conditions that can cause the service
message to occur are:
.One of the trailer tires has been replaced
with the spare tire which does not have a
learned TTPMS sensor. The DIC message
should turn off after the pressure sensor
is installed in the tire, and the learning
process is performed successfully. See
"TTPMS Sensor Learning Process" under
Trailering App0292.
.The TTPMS sensor learning process was
not done or not completed successfully.
The DIC message should go off after
successfully completing the sensor
learning process. See "TTPMS Sensor
Learning Process" under Trailering App
0 292.
.One or more TTPMS sensors are missing
or damaged. The DIC message should go
off when the TTPMS sensors are installed
and the sensor learning process is performed successfully. See "TTPMS
Sensor Learning Process" under
Trailering
App 0292.
.Operating electronic devices or being near
facilities using radio wave frequencies
similar to the TTPMS could cause
interference to the TTPMS which could
cause loss of signal reception from the
sensor.
.If the system does not receive the signal
from an individual sensor, an error
message may not occur until the vehicle
has been driver for a period of time.
If the TTPMS is not functioning properly, it
cannot detect or signal a low tire condition.
See your dealer for service if the DIC
message comes on and stays on when the
trailer tire pressures have been checked and
determined to be correct.
Tire Inspection
We recommend that the tires, including
the spare tire, if the vehicle has one, be
inspected for signs of wear or damage
at least once a month.
Replace the tire if:
.The indicators at three or more
places around the tire can be seen.
