SAFETY 309
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Low Pressure Warning
Should this occur, you should stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tires with low pressure
(those in a different color in the instrument cluster
graphic) to the vehicle’s recommended cold
placard pressure value as shown in the "Inflate to
XX" message. Once the system receives the
updated tire pressures, the system will
automatically update, the pressure values in the
graphic display in the instrument cluster will return
to their original color, and the TPMS Warning Light
will turn off.
NOTE:
When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may need
to be increased up to an additional 4 psi (28 kPa)
above the recommended cold placard pressure in
order to turn the TPMS Warning Light 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 this information.
SERVICE TPMS WARNING
When a system fault is detected, the TPMS
Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds
and then remain on solid. The system fault will also
sound a chime. In addition, the instrument cluster
will display a "SERVICE TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM"
message for a minimum of five seconds and then
display dashes (--) in place of the pressure value to
indicate which sensor is not being received.
If the ignition is cycled, this sequence will repeat,
providing the system fault still exists. If the system
fault no longer exists, the TPMS Warning Light will
no longer flash, and the “SERVICE TIRE PRESSURE
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:
Jamming due to electronic devices or driving
next to facilities emitting the same radio
frequencies as the TPMS sensors
Installing some form of aftermarket window
tinting that affects radio wave signals
Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel
housings
Using tire chains on the vehicle
Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS
sensors
Vehicles With A Full-Size Matching Spare
1. If your vehicle is equipped with a matching
full-size spare wheel and tire assembly, it has
a Tire Pressure Monitoring System sensor,
and can be monitored by the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) when swapped
with a low pressure road tire.
2. In the event that the matching full-size spare
tire is swapped with a low pressure road tire,
the next ignition switch cycle will still show the
TPMS Warning Light to be on, a chime to
sound, an Inflate to XX message to appear in
the instrument cluster, and the graphic display
will still show the low tire pressure value in a
different color.
3. Driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above
15 mph (24 km/h) will turn off the TPMS
Warning Light as long as none of road tires are
below the low pressure warning threshold.
TPMS DEACTIVATION — IF EQUIPPED
The TPMS can be deactivated if replacing all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with wheel
and tire assemblies that do not have TPMS
sensors, such as when installing winter wheel and
tire assemblies on your vehicle.
