Premium System — If Equipped

The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) uses wireless
technology with wheel rim mounted electronic sensors to
monitor tire pressure levels. Sensors mounted to each
wheel as part of the valve stem transmit tire pressure
readings to the receiver module.

NOTE:

It is particularly important for you to check the

tire pressure in all of the tires on your vehicle monthly
and to maintain the proper pressure.

The TPMS consists of the following components:

• Receiver module
• Four TPM sensors
• Various TPMS messages, which display in the Elec-

tronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)

• TPM Telltale Light

The matching full size spare wheel and tire assembly (if
equipped) has a TPM sensor. The full size spare can be
used in place of any of the four road tires. The TPMS will
only monitor the pressure in the full size spare tire when
it is used in place of a road tire. Otherwise, a spare with
a pressure below the low-pressure limit will not cause the
TPM Telltale Light to illuminate or the chime to sound.

Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure Warnings

The TPM Telltale Light will illuminate in the
instrument cluster and a chime will sound when

tire pressure is low in one or more of the four active road
tires. In addition, the EVIC will display a

ЉLOW TIREЉ

message and a graphic showing the pressure values of
each tire with the low tire pressure values flashing or
changing color. An

ЉInflate to XXЉ message will also be

displayed.
