the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph
(24 km/h) will turn OFF the Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light as long as none of road tires are below
the low pressure warning threshold. The EVIC will
also display a “SPARE LOW PRESSURE” message,

in place of the “flashing” low tire pressure value.
• If your vehicle is not equipped with a matching
full-size spare wheel and tire assembly, it does not
have a tire pressure monitoring sensor in the spare tire.
The TPMS will not be able to monitor the tire pressure.
