tire pressure mOnitOring system (tpms)
• If one or more of the four road tire pressures are low, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring Light will illuminate and an audible chime will sound.
• Check the inflation pressure of each road tire on your vehicle and
	 inflate	to	the	recommended	cold	pressure	value,	shown	on	the	placard		
 located in the driver’s door opening. The TPMs display should not be 
	 used	as	a	tire	pressure	gauge	when	adjusting	your	tire	pressure.
• The light will turn off once the updated tire pressure has been
recognized. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes 
above 15 mph (25 km/h) before the light will turn off.
• Temperature changes can affect tire pressures, causing the TPMs
 light to turn on. Colder temperatures will decrease tire pressure and 
 warmer temperatures will increase tire pressure.
• If your spare tire is in use on the vehicle, the TPMS light may turn on.
Refer to your Owner’s Manual.
