5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
■ When a tire is replaced with a spare tire (vehicles with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system)
The compact spare tire is not equipped with a tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter. If a tire goes flat, the tire pressure warning light will
not turn off even though the flat tire has been replaced with the spare
tire. Replace the spare tire with the repaired tire and adjust the tire infla-
tion pressure. The tire pressure warning light will go off after a few min-
utes.
■ If the tire pressure monitoring system is inoperative (if equipped)
The tire pressure monitoring system will be disabled in the following con-
ditions:
(When the condition becomes normal, the system will work properly.)
● If tires not equipped with tire pressure warning valves and transmit-
ters are used.
● If the ID code on the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters is
not registered in the tire pressure warning computer.
● If the tire inflation pressure is 55 psi (380 kPa, 3.87 kgf/cm
2
or bar) or
higher.
The tire pressure monitoring system may be disabled in the following
conditions:
(When the condition becomes normal, the system will work properly.)
● If electronic devices or facilities using similar radio wave frequencies
are nearby.
● If a radio set at similar frequencies is in use in the vehicle.
● If a window tint that affects the radio wave signals is installed.
● If there is a lot of snow or ice on the vehicle, in particular around the
wheels or wheel housings.
● If non-genuine SUBARU wheels are used. (Even if you use SUBARU
wheels, the tire pressure monitoring system may not work properly
with some types of tires.)
● If tire chains are used.
● If a large metallic object which can interfere with signal reception is
put in the trunk.
