The system will automatically update and the “Tire

Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” will extinguish once

the updated tire pressures have been received.
NOTE:

The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20

minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) to receive this infor-

mation.
The “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” will flash

on and off for 75 seconds, and remain on solid when a

system fault is detected. The system fault will also sound

a chime. If the ignition switch is cycled, this sequence will

repeat, providing the system fault still exists. The “Tire

Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” will turn off when

the fault condition no longer exists. A system fault can

occur with any of the following scenarios:

• Jamming due to electronic devices or driving next to

facilities emitting the same radio frequencies as the

TPMS sensors.

• Installing some form of aftermarket window tinting

that affects radio wave signals.

• Accumulation of excessive snow and/or ice around

the wheels or wheel housings.

• Using tire chains on the vehicle.
• Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS sensors.
Vehicles With Compact Spare

• The compact spare tire (if equipped) does not have a

TPMS sensor. Therefore the TPMS will not monitor the

pressure in the compact spare tire.

• If you install the compact spare tire in place of a road

tire that has a pressure below the low-pressure warn-

ing limit, upon the next ignition switch cycle, a chime

will sound, a “LOW TIRE PRESSURE” message will be

displayed and the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale

Light” will turn on.
