Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required Federal Explanation

Driving

2013 RDX

Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance,
and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even
if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the
TPMS low tire pressure telltale.

Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator
to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction
indicator is provided by a separate telltale, which displays the symbol
“TPMS” when illuminated.

When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may
not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.

TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.

Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires
or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires
tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.
