Air pressure below
recommendation for tires
Check pressure and refill air as
needed
This alert does NOT indicate that there is a flat tire.
The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) has
detected that the air pressure in one or more of your
tires is at least 20% lower than the recommended cold
tire pressure. This recommended pressure should be
displayed on the Tire and Loading information label.
You can display currently measured tire pressures on the
instrument panel by choosing to display Car Status
using the right or left steering wheel buttons.
NOTE: Due to market region and vehicle configuration,
this feature may not be available on your vehicle.
See Maintaining Tire Pressures on page 179 for detailed
information on how to keep the tires properly
inflated.
This alert may appear in cold weather because the air in
your tires naturally contracts when it becomes cold,
decreasing tire pressures.
•
Although drops in tire pressure are expected in
colder weather, air should still be added to maintain
the recommended cold tire pressure.
•
The alert may clear as the vehicle is driven. This is
because the tires will warm up and the tire pressure
will increase.
◦
Even if the alert clears, the tires should still be
refilled with air once they have cooled. For the
best experience with your vehicle, the
recommended cold tire pressure should be
maintained at all times.
The alert should clear once the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System detects that each of your tires is inflated to the
recommended cold pressure.
•
The alert and Tire Pressure indicator light may still be
present immediately after you have filled your tires to
the recommended cold pressure, but both should
clear once you have driven a short distance.
•
You may need to drive over 15 mph (25 km/h) for at
least 10 minutes for the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System to measure and report your updated tire
pressures.
If you repeatedly see this alert for the same tire, have
the tire inspected for a slow leak. You can visit a local
tire shop or schedule service using your Tesla Mobile
App.
