SAFETY 235
Small Vehicles And/Or Not Aligned To The Lane
The system is not able to detect the presence of
vehicl
es that are in front of the vehicle but placed
outside the field of action of the radar sensor and
could therefore not react in the presence of small
vehicles such as bicycles or motorcycles.
Small Vehicles And/Or Not Aligned To The Lane
Lane Changing Of Other Vehicles
Vehicles that suddenly change lanes, or stay in the
traffi
c lane of their vehicle while moving into the
field of action of the radar sensor, may cause the
intervention of the system.
Lane Changing Of Other Vehicles
Passing Of Vehicles In An Oncoming Intersection
The system could temporarily react to a vehicle
t
hat c
rossed the range of the radar sensor in an
oncoming intersection.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM
(TPMS)
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) will
warn the driver of a low tire pressure based on the
vehicle recommended cold placard pressure.
The tire pressure will vary with temperature by
approxi
mately 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (6.5°C).
This means that when the outside temperature
decreases, the tire pressure will decrease. Tire
pressure should always be set based on cold
inflation tire pressure. This is defined as the tire
pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for
at least three hours, or driven less than 1
mile
(1.6
km
) after a three hour period. The cold tire
i
n
f
l
a
t
ion pressure must not exceed the maximum
inflation pressure molded into the tire sidewall.
The tire pressure will also increase as the vehicle
is driven. This is normal and there should be no
adjustment for this increased pressure.
See Ú page 322 on how to properly inflate the
vehicle’s tires.
The TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire pressure
i
f the tire pressure falls below the low-pressure
warning limit for any reason, including low
temperature effects and natural pressure loss
through the tire.
