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:
1. Jamming due to electronic devices or driving next to

facilities emitting the same radio frequencies as the

TPM sensors.

2. Installing some form of aftermarket window tinting

that affects radio wave signals.

3. Snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings.
4. Using tire chains on the vehicle.
5. Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM sensors.
NOTE:

Your vehicle is equipped with a compact spare

wheel and tire assembly.
1. The compact spare tire does not have a tire pressure

monitoring sensor. Therefore, the TPMS will not moni-

tor the tire pressure in the compact spare tire.

2. 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 key cycle, a chime will

sound and the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light

and LOW TIRE message will still turn ON due to the

low tire.

3. However, after driving the vehicle for up to 20 min-

utes above 15 mph (24 km/h), the Tire Pressure

Monitoring Telltale Light will flash on and off for 75

seconds and then remain on solid.

4. For each subsequent ignition key cycle, a chime will

sound and the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light

will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on

solid.

5. Once you repair or replace the original road tire and

reinstall it on the vehicle in place of the compact spare

tire, the TPMS will update automatically and the Tire

Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will turn OFF, as
