and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation
a
lso reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle's handling and
stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's
responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure,
even if under-inflation has not reached the level
to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire
pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with
a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. The TPMS
malfunction indicator is combined with the
low tire pressure telltale. When the system
detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then remain
continuously illuminated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as
long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated,
the system may not be able to detect
or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for avariety
of reasons, including the installation of
replacement or alternate tires or wheels on
the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from
functioning properly. Always check the TPMS
malfunction telltale after replacing one or
m
ore tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alternate tires
and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to
function properly.

Tire Pressure Monitor Operation
(If equipped)
This vehicle may have aTire Pressure Monitor
System (TPMS). The TPMS is designed to warn
the driver when alow tire pressure condition
exists. TPMS sensors are mounted onto each
tire and wheel assembly, excluding the spare
tire and wheel assembly. The TPMS sensors
monitor the air pressure in the tires and
transmit the tire pressure readings to a receiver
located in the vehicle.
When a l
ow tire pressure condition is detected,
the TPMS illuminates the low tire pressure
warning light located on the instrument
cluster. If the warning light comes on, stop
as soon as possible and inflate the tires to
the recommended pressure shown on the Tire
and Loading Information label. See Wheels and
Tires 3168.
The TPMS warning light come on at each
ignition cycle until the tires are inflated to the
correct inflation pressure.
The TPMS warning light may come on in cool
weather when the vehicle is first started, and
then turn off as the vehicle is driven. This
could be an early indicator that the air pressure
is getting low and must be inflated to the
proper pressure.
The TPMS can warn about alow tire pressure
condition but it does not replace normal tire
maintenance. See Wheels and Tires 3168 and
Tire Rotation 3172 .
