Conditions such as low ambient temperature and
altitude change directly affect tire pressure and can
trigger the low tire pressure/ TPMS indicator to come
on.

The pressure displayed on the multi-information
display can be slightly different from the actual
pressure as measured by a gauge. If there is a
significant difference between the two values, or if
the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator and the message
on the multi-information display do not go off after
you have inflated the tire to the specified pressure,
have the system checked by a dealer.
TPMS ERROR may appear if you drive with the
compact spare tire, or there is a problem with the
TPMS.
