• Inflating a low tire will not clear the Low Tire Warning indicator light.
Only reseting the system will clear the light.
• The system will not detect a pressure loss without driving the vehicle
for at least 0.8 km (0.5 mile) at speeds greater than 40 km/h (25
mph).
To reset turn the ignition to the ON
position, depress and Trip/odometer
button (located in the instrument
cluster) until “TIRE RESET” or
“CHECK TIRE AND RESET” is
displayed in the odometer display
window. Once “TIRE RESET” or
“CHECK TIRE AND RESET” is displayed, press and hold the button for
three seconds. The low tire warning indicator light will flash three times
as the low tire warning system begins to initialize.
The system normally requires 15 to 20 minutes of driving in each of
three speed ranges to learn how the tires behave after the system has
been reset. However, the system will become functional in each speed
range as soon as learning completes in each individual speed range.
Speed ranges:
• Low 40–68 km/h (25–42 mph)
• Medium 68–100 km/h (42–62 mph)
• High – above 100 km/h (62 mph)
This system may not function properly under the following conditions:
• Uneven tread wear.
• Driving on loose or low traction surfaces such as gravel, snow or slush.
• Using tire chains
• Initial tire pressures out of specified range.
• Two or more under inflated tires.
• Sudden loss of tire pressure.
• Vehicle speeds less than 30 km/h (20 mph), greater than 120 km/h (70
mph) or driving duration less than 10 miles.
• Transporting a heavy load or towing a trailer.
• A different tire was replaced and was not the same brand, type, size,
speed rating, load carrying capacity and DOT code as the other tire on
the same axle.
