CAUTION!
The TPM system has been optimized for the original
equipment tires and wheels. TPM system pressures
have been established for the tire size equipped on
your vehicle. Undesirable operation or sensor dam-
age may result when using replacement equipment
that is not of the same size, type, and/or style.
After-market wheels can cause sensor damage. Do
not use tire sealant or balance beads if your vehicle
is equipped with TPM system as damage to the
sensors may result.
Tire Pressure Monitor System Tire/Wheel Rotation
and Sensor Replacement — If Equipped
If a road tire and wheel is replaced by the spare, the TPM
system will detect the swap automatically (after the
ignition has been cycled) and display SPARE SWAP
DETECTED along with a chime. This could take up to 10
minutes with vehicle speed above 25 mph (40 km/h).
The tire pressure sensors must be retrained following a
wheel rotation or sensor replacement. Refer to “Under-
standing The Features of Your Vehicle, Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC), Customer Programmable
Features, Retrain Tire Sensors” for more information. It is
necessary to program the EVIC with the new sensor(s) or
the new position of each sensor as it is rotated to a
different corner of the vehicle.
If a wheel rotation is not followed by the retrain proce-
dure, the system will not properly inform you of the
correct vehicle location of a low or high tire pressure.
The retraining procedure requires the use of a training
magnet which is located in the left, rear corner of the
spare tire well under the spare tire cover in the trunk.
