Checking tire pressure electronically
with the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS), (USA only)
i
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) is equipped with a combination
low tire pressure/TPMS malfunction
telltale in the instrument cluster
(
୴ page 24). Depending on how the
telltale illuminates, it indicates a low
tire pressure condition or a malfunction
in the TPMS system itself:
ț If the telltale illuminates continu-
ously, one or more of your tires is
significantly underinflated. There is
no malfunction in the TPMS.
ț If the telltale flashes for 60 seconds
and then stays illuminated, the
TPMS system itself is not operating
properly.
