Tire Pressure Monitor
(if equipped)
The Tire Pressure Monitor alerts you
when a significant reduction in pressure
occurs in one or more of your vehicle’s
tires by illuminating the (low tire pres-
sure) warning light on the instrument
panel. The low tire pressure warning
light will remain on until you correct the
tire pressure.
You may also have a CHECK TIRE
PRESSURE message appear on the
DIC (if equipped).
Correcting the Tire Pressure
When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you must fill the tire to the
proper tire inflation pressure. The Tire
and Loading Information label shows the
correct inflation pressure for the tires
when they’re cold. “Cold” means your
vehicle has been sitting for at least three
hours or driven no more than one mile.
You can temporarily remove the DIC
message by acknowledging it with your
DIC controls. However, at the next vehi-
cle startup, the DIC message will reap-
pear if the tire pressure has not been
corrected.
You may notice during cooler conditions
that the low tire pressure warning light
will appear when the vehicle is first start-
ed and then turn off as you start to drive
the vehicle. This could be an early indi-
cator that your tire pressures are getting
low and need to be inflated to the proper
pressure.
See Section 5 of your Owner Manual.
Note: The Tire Pressure Monitor can
alert you about low tire pressure, but it
doesn’t replace normal monthly tire
maintenance.
