Driving the vehicle may cause the tire pressure
to rise to approximately 30 psi (207 kPa), but
the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” will
still be ON. In this situation, the “Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light” will turn OFF only after
the tires have been inflated to the vehicle’s
recommended cold placard pressure value.
CAUTION!
• The TPMS has been optimized for the
original equipment tires and wheels. The
TPMS pressures have been established
for the tire size equipped on your vehicle.
Undesirable system operation or sensor
damage may result when using replace-
ment equipment that is not of the same
size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket
wheels can cause sensor damage. Do not
use aftermarket tire sealants or balance
beads if your vehicle is equipped with a
TPMS, as damage to the sensors may
result.

CAUTION!

• After inspecting or adjusting the tire pres-
sure, always reinstall the valve stem cap.
This will prevent moisture and dirt from
entering the valve stem, which could dam-
age the Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensor.
NOTE:
• The TPMS is not intended to replace nor-
mal tire care and maintenance, nor to
provide warning of a tire failure or condi-
tion.
• The TPMS should not be used as a tire
pressure gauge while adjusting your tire
pressure.
• Driving on a significantly under-inflated
tire causes the tire to overheat and can
lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also
reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle’s handling and
stopping ability.
• 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 “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light.”
• Seasonal temperature changes will affect
tire pressure, and the TPMS will monitor
the actual tire pressure in the tire.
Base System
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS)
uses wireless technology with wheel rim
mounted electronic sensors to monitor tire pres-
sure levels. Sensors, mounted to each wheel as
part of the valve stem, transmit tire pressure
readings to the Receiver Module.
NOTE:
It is particularly important for you to check
the tire pressure in all of your tires regularly
and to maintain the proper pressure.
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) con-
sists of the following components:
1. Receiver Module
2. Four Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors
