Getting to Know Your G3
14
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
Pressure) warning light on the instru-
ment panel cluster. The low tire pressure
warning light will remain on until you
correct the tire pressure.
Correcting the Tire Pressure
When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you must inflate the tire to
the proper tire pressure (just as you
must refuel the vehicle when the low
fuel warning light illuminates). The Tire
and Loading Information label shows the
correct tire 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.
During cooler conditions, the low tire
pressure warning light may appear when
the vehicle is first started and then turn
off as you start to drive. This could be
an early indicator that the tire pressures
are getting low and the tires need to be
inflated to the proper pressure.
See Sections 3 and 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.
Reset the Engine Oil Life
System
The Oil Life System calculates engine oil
life based on vehicle use and illuminates
the (Change Engine Oil) light on
the instrument panel cluster when it’s
necessary to change your engine oil and
filter. The Oil Life System should be
reset only following an oil change.
To reset the Oil Life System:
1. Turn on the ignition, with the
engine off.
2. Fully press and release the
accelerator pedal three times within
five seconds.
3. Turn off the ignition.
See Sections 3 and 5 of your Owner Manual.
