280SAFETY
The system will be activated when a positive increase in
tire pressure is detected by the TPMS while inflating the
tire. The ignition must be in the RUN mode, with the
transmission in PARK.
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.
When Tire Fill Alert mode is entered, the tire pressure
display screen will be displayed in the instrument cluster.
If the hazard lamps do not come on while inflating the tire,
the TPMS sensor may be out of range 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.
Operation:
The horn will sound once to let the user know when to
stop filling the tire, when it reaches recommended
pressure.
The horn will sound three times if the tire is overfilled
and will continue to sound every five seconds if the
user continues to inflate the tire.
The horn will sound once again when enough air is let
out to reach proper inflation level.
The horn will also sound three times if the tire is then
underinflated and will continue to sound every five
seconds if the user continues to deflate the tire.
Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TTPMS) — If Equipped
The Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TTPMS) is a
feature that displays the trailer tire pressure values and
warns the driver of a low tire pressure event based on the
driver’s set target tire pressure value, through TTPMS
settings found in the radio.
The TTPMS monitors the pressure of each tire and warns
the driver through the instrument cluster, when either a
low tire pressure condition falls below 25% of the driver’s
set pressure or if a system malfunction occurs. The
instrument cluster will display the actual tire pressure or
dashes for each of the trailer tires in the correct trailer
position, based on trailer configuration. The TTPMS can
support up to 12 trailer tires per configured trailer on up to
four configurable trailers
Úpage 191.
Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Trailer Tire Pressure Sensor Pairing
In order use this feature, the provided tire pressure
sensors must be installed in the desired trailer tires and
the sensors must be paired to the truck. If the target trailer
requires more than the provided four sensors, additional
sensors can be purchased at an authorized Ram
dealership.
With the sensors installed and the trailer near or
connected to your Ram truck, initiate the pairing process
by entering the settings menu in the radio and selecting
trailer. Select the desired trailer profile to pair to, open the
“Tire Pressure” menu, and hit “Setup All Tires”
Úpage 191.
NOTE:The vehicle may not be driven until the pairing process is
complete.

Trailer Tire Pressure Pairing
Follow the on screen prompts to select the number of
axles (1-3), the number of trailer tires (2, 4, 6, 8, or 12),
and the set trailer tire pressure. The range is selectable
anywhere between 25-125 psi (172-862 kPa).
Once psi (kPa) is programmed, the pairing screen
appears. Tire sensors must be paired in order shown.
Starting with Tire 1, deflate tire by 5 psi (34 kPa) and wait
for a horn chirp. It may take up to three minutes for the
chirp to occur, indicating that the sensor has paired.
Repeat process on each tire, in order, until complete.
Do not exit the pairing screen until process is complete.
If pairing was unsuccessful, a double horn chirp will
sound, and a prompt on the touchscreen will allow you to
retry the procedure; “Retry” will only appear when setup
fails. Each tire must be successfully paired during a single
pairing process to receive the success screen.
NOTE:If the pairing process times out after three minutes of no
communication with a sensor, a double horn chip will
occur indicating the pairing has failed and a message will
display on the radio indicating the process was unsuc -
cessful. Under certain circumstances, the double horn
chirp may continue to happen every three minutes indi -
cating the failed pairing. If this happens, the horn chirping
may be canceled by cycling the ignition button OFF and
then back to RUN position.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Low Pressure Warnings
When a tire pressure low in one or more of the active road
tires is detected, the instrument cluster will display a
message stating “Trailer Tire Pressure Low”.
The instrument cluster will then display the TTPMS graphic
showing the pressure values of each tire with the low tire
pressure values in a different color.
Should this occur, you should stop as soon as possible
and inflate the tires with a low pressure condition (those in
a different color in the instrument cluster graphic) to the
customer programmed target tire pressure value as
shown at the top of the TTPMS instrument cluster graphic.
Once the tire(s) are inflated, the system will automatically
update the graphic display in the instrument cluster,
returning to its original color. The vehicle may need to be
driven for up to 10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in
order for the TTPMS to receive the updated information. Service TTPMS Warning
If a system fault is detected, the instrument cluster will
display a “Trailer Tire Pressure System Service Required”
message for a minimum of five seconds.
Once the system fault is corrected the "Trailer Tire
Pressure System Service Required" message will no
longer be displayed. The vehicle may need to be driven for
up to 10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the
TTPMS to receive the trailer tire pressure information.
Trailer Tire Pressure System Not Configured
A “Trailer Tire Pressure System Not Configured” message
will be displayed in the instrument cluster on the TTPMS
instrument cluster graphic when a trailer number is
selected that has not had trailer tire pressure sensors
paired. To correct this condition, see
Úpage 191.
Trailer Sensors Detected Do Not Match Active Trailer
The “Trailer Sensors Detected Do Not Match Active
Trailer” message will be displayed in the instrument
cluster when the trailer sensors being received by the
TTPMS module do not match the trailer sensors paired to
the current trailer number selected. This message will be
displayed when the sensors being received completely
match the sensors paired to another trailer number
configured in the TTPMS module.
To correct this condition, the correct trailer number must
be selected in the radio

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic oil change
indicator system. The oil change indicator system will
remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for
scheduled maintenance.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil change
indicator message will illuminate. This means that service
is required for your vehicle. Operating conditions such as
frequent short-trips, trailer tow, and extremely hot or cold
ambient temperatures will influence when the “Oil Change
Required” message is displayed. Have your vehicle
serviced as soon as possible, within the next 500 miles
(805 km).An authorized dealer will reset the oil change indicator
message after completing the scheduled oil change. If a
scheduled oil change is performed by someone other than
an authorized dealer, the message can be reset by
referring to the steps described under Instrument Cluster
Display
Úpage 98.
NOTE:Under no circumstances should oil change intervals
exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km), 12 months or
350 hours of engine run time, whichever comes first.
The 350 hours of engine run or idle time is generally only
a concern for fleet customers.
Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:
Check engine oil level.
Check windshield washer fluid level.
Check tire pressure and look for unusual wear or
damage. Rotate tires at the first sign of irregular
wear, even if it occurs before the oil indicator system
turns on.
Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir, brake
master cylinder, and fill as needed.
Check function of all interior and exterior lights.
