Vehicles With Full Size Spare
1. The matching full size spare wheel and tire assembly
has a TPM sensor that can be monitored by the TPMS.
2. If you install the full size spare in place of a road tire
that has a pressure below the low-pressure warning
limit, upon the next ignition switch cycle, a chime will
sound and the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light” will turn ON. In addition, the EVIC will display
a “LOW TIRE PRESSURE” message and a graphic
showing the low tire pressure value flashing or in a
different color. An Inflate to XX message will also be
displayed.
3. After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above
15 mph (25 km/h) the “Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light” will turn OFF and the pressure value
will be updated and stop flashing or return to it’s
original color, as long as no tire pressure is below the
low-pressure warning limit in any of the four active
road tires.
Tire Pressure Information System (TPIS) Chassis
Cab If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Tire Pressure
Information System (TPIS).
The Tire Pressure Information System (TPIS) uses wire-
less technology with wheel rim mounted electronic sen-
sors to transmit tire pressure 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 the tires on your vehicle monthly
and to maintain the proper pressure.
