each tire with the low tire pressure values in
a different color. An "Inflate to XX" message
will also be displayed.
Example: Low Tire Pressure Display
Should this occur, you should stop as soon as
possible
and inflate the tires with a low pres-
sure condition (those in a different color in
t
he instr
ument cluster graphic) to the
vehicle’s recommended cold placard pres
-
sure inflation value as shown in the "Inflate
to XX" me
ssage. Once the system receives
the updated tire pressures, the system will
automatically update, the graphic display in
the instrument cluster will return to it’s orig
-
inal color, and the “Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale
Light” will turn off. The vehicle may
need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above
15 mph (24
km/h) in order for the TPMS to
receive t
his information.
NOTE:
When filling warm tires, the tire pressure
m
ay need
to be increased up to an additional
4 psi (28 kPa) above the recommended cold
placard pressure in order to turn the Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light off.
Service TPMS Warning
If a system fault is detected, the “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring Telltale Light” will flash on
and off f
or 75 seconds and then remain on
solid. The system fault will also sound a
chime. In addition, the instrument cluster
will display a "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM"
message for a minimum of five seconds and
then display dashes (- -) in place of the pres
-
sure value to indicate which sensor is not
being rec
eived.
If the ignition switch is cycled, this sequence
will repe
at, providing the system fault still
exists. If the system fault no longer exists,
the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light”
will no longer flash, and the "SERVICE TPM
SYSTEM" message will no longer display,
and a pressure value will display in place of
the dashes. A system fault can occur due to
any of the following:
Signal interference due to electronic
devices or driving next to facilities emit-
ting the same radio frequencies as the
T
PM senso
rs.
Installing aftermarket window tinting that
contains materials that may block radio
wave signals.
Accumulation of snow or ice around the
wheels or wheel housings.
Using tire chains on the vehicle.
Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM
sensors.
A system fault may occur due to an incorrect
TPM senso
r location condition. When a
system fault occurs due to an incorrect TPM
sensor location, the “Tire Pressure Moni
-
toring Telltale Light” will flash on and off for
75 second
s and then remain on solid. The
system fault will also sound a chime. In addi
-
tion, the instrument cluster will display a
“Tire Pre
ssure Temporarily Unavailable”
message in place of the tire pressure display
screen. If the ignition switch is cycled, this
sequence will repeat, providing the system
fault still exists. If the system fault no longer
