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

378SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
Check tire pressures more often if subject to a wide range
of outdoor temperatures, as tire pressures vary with
temperature changes.
Tire pressures change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per
12°F (7°C) of air temperature change. Keep this in mind
when checking tire pressure inside a garage, especially in
the Winter.
Example: If garage temperature = 68°F (20°C) and the
outside temperature = 32°F (0°C) then the cold tire
inflation pressure should be increased by 3 psi (21 kPa),
which equals 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (7°C) for this
outside temperature condition.
Tire pressure may increase from 2 to 6 psi (13 to 40 kPa)
during operation. DO NOT reduce this normal pressure
build up or your tire pressure will be too low.
Tire Pressures For High Speed Operation
The manufacturer advocates driving at safe speeds and
within posted speed limits. Where speed limits or
conditions are such that the vehicle can be driven at high
speeds, maintaining correct tire inflation pressure is very
important. Increased tire pressure and reduced vehicle
loading may be required for high-speed vehicle operation.
Refer to an authorized tire dealer or original equipment
vehicle dealer for recommended safe operating speeds,
loading and cold tire inflation pressures.
Radial Ply Tires
Tire Repair
If your tire becomes damaged, it may be repaired if it
meets the following criteria:
The tire has not been driven on when flat
The damage is only on the tread section of your tire
(sidewall damage is not repairable)
The puncture is no greater than ¼ of an inch (6 mm)
Consult an authorized tire dealer for tire repairs and
additional information. Damaged Run Flat tires, or Run Flat tires that have
experienced a loss of pressure should be replaced
immediately with another Run Flat tire of identical size and
service description (Load Index and Speed Symbol).
Replace the tire pressure sensor as well as it is not
designed to be reused.
Run Flat Tires — If Equipped
Run Flat tires allow you the capability to drive 50 miles
(80 km) at 50 mph (80 km/h) after a rapid loss of inflation
pressure. This rapid loss of inflation is referred to as the
Run Flat mode. A Run Flat mode occurs when the tire
inflation pressure is of/or below 14 psi (96 kPa).
Once a Run Flat tire reaches the Run Flat mode it has
limited driving capabilities and needs to be replaced
immediately. A Run Flat tire is not repairable. When a Run
Flat tire is changed after being driven in a Run Flat mode
14 psi (96 kPa) condition, please replace the TPMS sensor
as it is not designed to be reused.
NOTE:The TPMS Sensor must be replaced after driving the
vehicle on a flat tire condition.
It is not recommended driving a vehicle loaded at full
capacity or to tow a trailer while a tire is in the
Run Flat mode.
For more information
Úpage 277.
WARNING!
High speed driving with your vehicle under maximum
load is dangerous. The added strain on your tires could
cause them to fail. You could have a serious collision.
Do not drive a vehicle loaded to the maximum capacity
at continuous speeds above 75 mph (120 km/h).
WARNING!
Combining radial ply tires with other types of tires on
your vehicle will cause your vehicle to handle poorly.
The instability could cause a collision. Always use radial
ply tires in sets of four. Never combine them with other
types of tires.
