In case of emergency
cations.
Never place a tire or tire changing tools in the
passenger compartment after changing
wheels. In a sudden stop or collisions, loose
equipment could strike occupants and cause
injury. Store the tire and all tools in the proper
place.
! Tire pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) (if equipped)
The tire pressure monitoring system provides the driv-
er with a warning message indicated by sending a sig-
nal from a sensor that is installed in each wheel when
tire pressure is severely low.
The tire pressure monitoring system will activate only
when the vehicle is driven. Also, this system may not
react immediately to a sudden drop in tire pressure
(for example, a blow-out caused running over a sharp
object).
If the low tire pressure warning light comes on
while driving, never brake suddenly and keep
driving straight ahead while gradually reducing
speed. Then slowly pull off the road to a safe
place. Otherwise an accident involving serious
vehicle damage and serious personal injury
could occur.
Check the pressure for all four tires and adjust
the pressure to the COLD tire pressure shown
on the vehicle placard on the door pillar on the
driver’s side. If this light still comes on while
driving after adjusting the tire pressure, a tire
may have significant damage and a fast leak
that causes the tire to lose air rapidly. If you
have a flat tire, replace it with a spare tire as
soon as possible.
