1-22 In Brief
The low tyre pressure warning light
may come on in cool weather when
the vehicle is first started, and then
turn off as the vehicle is driven. This
may be an early indicator that the
tyre pressures are getting low and
the tyres need to be inflated to the
proper pressure.
The TPMS does not replace normal
monthly tyre maintenance. Maintain
the correct tyre pressures.
See Tyre Pressure Monitor System
on page 10‑63.
Tyre Sealant and
Compressor Kit
This vehicle may come with a spare
tyre and tyre changing equipment or
a tyre sealant and compressor kit.
The kit can be used to temporarily
seal small punctures in the tread
area of the tyre. See Tyre Sealant
and Compressor Kit on page 10‑76.
If the vehicle came with a spare tyre
and tyre changing equipment, see If
a Tyre Goes Flat on page 10‑74.
Engine Oil Life System
The engine oil life system calculates
engine oil life based on vehicle use
and displays the CHANGE ENGINE
OIL SOON message when it is time
to change the engine oil and filter.
The oil life system should be reset
to 100% only following an oil
change.
Resetting the Oil Life System
After you change the oil, the oil life
system will need to be reset. See
your dealer for service.
See Engine Oil Life System on
page 10‑11.
