3. After driving the vehicle for up to 20 min-
utes above 15 mph (24 km/h), the “TPMS
Telltale Light” will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then remain on solid.
4. For each subsequent ignition cycle, a
chime will sound and the “TPMS Telltale
Light” will flash on and off for 75 seconds
and then remain on solid.
5. Once you repair or replace the original
road tire and reinstall it on the vehicle in
place of the compact spare or non-
matching full size spare, the TPMS will
update automatically and the “TPMS Tell-
tale Light” will turn off, as long as no tire
pressure is below the low-pressure warn-
ing limit in any of the four active road
tires. 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.
Tire Pressure Monitor System Operation
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS)
uses wireless technology with wheel rim
mounted electronic sensors to monitor 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.
The TPMS consists of the following compo-
nents:
• Receiver Module.
• Four Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors.
• Various Tire Pressure Monitoring System
messages, which display in the instrument
cluster.
• Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light.
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure Warn-
ings
The “Tire Pressure Monitoring Tell-
tale Light” will illuminate in the in-
strument cluster and a chime will
sound when tire pressure is low in one or
more of the four active road tires. In addition,
the instrument cluster will display a "Tire
Low" message for a minimum of five seconds
and a graphic showing the pressure values of
each tire with the low tire pressure values in a
different color.
Should this occur, you should stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tires with low pres-
sure (those in a different color in the instru-
ment cluster graphic) to the vehicle’s recom-
mended cold placard pressure value as
shown in the "Inflate to XX" message. Once
