will automatically update and the “Tire Pressure Moni-
toring Light” will extinguish once the updated tire pres-
sures have been received. The vehicle may need to be
driven for up to 10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) to
receive this information. A low spare tire will not cause
the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” to illumi-
nate or the chime to sound.

The “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” will flash
on and off for 60 seconds, and an audible chime will
sound when a system fault is detected. The flash cycle
will repeat every ten minutes, without an audible chime,
until the fault condition no longer exists. If the ignition
key is cycled, this sequence will repeat, providing the
system fault still exists.

NOTE:

If your vehicle is equipped with a matching full

size spare tire, it has a tire pressure monitoring sensor,
and can be monitored by the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS). In the event that the matching full size

spare tire is swapped with a low pressure road tire, the
next ignition key cycle will still show the “Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light” to be ON, and a chime to
sound. Driving the vehicle for up to 10 minutes above 15
mph (24 km/h) will turn OFF the “Tire Pressure Moni-
toring Telltale Light” as long as the spare tire or any other
road tire(s) are not below the low pressure warning
threshold.

NOTE:

If your vehicle is equipped with a non-matching

full size spare tire, it does not have a tire pressure
monitoring sensor. Therefore, it will not be monitored by
the Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS). In the event
that the non-matching full size spare tire is swapped with
a low pressure road tire, each ignition key cycle will still
show the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” to be
ON, and a chime to sound. After the original road tire has
been properly repaired, and put back onto the vehicle in
place of the non-matching full size spare tire, the TPMS
