As you drive, the Flat Tire Monitor  
keeps track of pressure levels in all four  
tires. The system alerts you whenever  
the inflation pressure of a tire falls sig-  
nificantly below the pressure of another  
tire.  
Controlling the tire pressure is based  
on monitoring the rpm that the tires  
have relative to each other. A flat tire is  
detected and reported because the rpm  
suddenly deviate drastically from one  
another.

1. Check the tire inflation pressures in  
all tires  
2. Compare them with the tire inflation  
pressure table on page 25 and cor-  
rect them, if necessary
