Once a low or high tire pressure condition is detected,
the TPM system will display the CHECK TIRE
MESSAGE each time the engine is started,
until
the
tire(s) are set to the correct inflation pressure.
The Tire-Loading Information Label, which is located on
the rear edge of the driver’s door, shows the correct
inflation pressure for the tires on your vehicle.
The TPM system also allows the driver to check the air
pressure status of each road tire using the Driver
Information Center
(DIC).
Each tire’s air pressure will be
listed individually, in the following order: LF (left front
or driver’s side front tire), RF (right front or passenger’s
side front tire), RR (right rear or passenger’s side
rear tire) and LR (left rear or driver’s side rear tire). See
Inflation
--
Tire Pressure on page
5-61
for information
regarding correct tire inflation. Also, see
Driver
Information Center (DIC) on page
3-57
for information
on the DIC controls and displays.
If
the DIC display doesn’t show tire pressures or the
SERVICE TPM SYSTEM message appears, see
your
dealer
for
service. The TPM system may not work
properly while the compact spare tire is installed.
Anytime you replace one or more tires or rotate your
tires, the TPM system will need to be reset. A special
tool is needed to reset the sensor identification
codes. See your dealer for service.
Your vehicle was delivered from the factory with
aluminum valve stem caps.
If
you ever have to replace
the valve stem caps on your vehicle, you should
replace them with aluminum or plastic caps.
The TPM system can alert you about a low or high tire
pressure condition, but it doesn’t replace normal tire
maintenance. See
Tires
on
page
5-60.
