is swapped with a low pressure road tire, the next ignition
key cycle will still show the “Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light” to be ON, and a chime to sound. Driving
the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h)
will turn OFF the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light”
as long as none of the road tires are below the low pressure
warning threshold.
• If your vehicle is not equipped with a matching full-size
spare wheel and tire assembly, it does not have a tire
pressure monitoring sensor in the spare tire. The TPMS
will not be able to monitor the tire pressure. If you install
the spare tire in place of a road tire that has a pressure
below the low-pressure warning limit, upon the next
ignition key cycle, a chime will sound and the “Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” will turn ON. After
driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph
(24 km/h), the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light”
will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on
solid. For each subsequent ignition key cycle, a chime
will sound and the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light” will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then
remain on solid. Once you repair or replace the original
road tire, and reinstall it on the vehicle in place of the
spare tire, the TPMS will update automatically and the
“Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light” will turn OFF,
as long as no tire pressure is below the low-pressure
warning 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.
Premium System — If Equipped
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.
