WARNING
Failure to heed warning lights and instrument cluster text messages can cause the vehicle to
break down in traffic and result in a collision and serious personal injury.
ꢀ
ꢀ
Never ignore warning lights or text WARNINGS.
Always stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
NOTICE
Failure to heed warning lights or text WARNINGS can result in vehicle damage.
If the ignition is switched on, an acoustic warning sounds when low tire pressure is detected. If a
system malfunction is detected, no acoustic warning sounds.
Driving for a longer period of time on rough roads or with a dynamic and sporty style can make
the TPMS system temporarily unavailable. The indicator light will come on, signaling a malfunction, but
will go out again once road condition or driving style change.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) and recalibration with the MFI
ꢀ Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS
Your vehicle's Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) indirectly checks the tire pressure of all 4 tires
while you are driving by using the Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) sensors to monitor the tread
circumference (rolling circumference) and vibration characteristics of the individual tires.
The tread circumference of a tire can change:
ꢀ
ꢀ
ꢀ
ꢀ
ꢀ
ꢀ
ꢀ
ꢀ
ꢀ
If a tire's inflation pressure is too low.
If the tire's tread is damaged or the tire is structurally damaged.
If one side of the vehicle is more heavily loaded than the other.
If there is more weight on one axle than the other (such as when towing a trailer).
If a compact spare wheel has been mounted.
If a wheel was replaced on each axle.
If a tire was changed.
If the tire pressure was changed, or wheels were rotated or replaced, but the TPMS was not reset.
If there are snow chains on the tires. Using snow chains can cause the system to give false
warnings because snow chains increase tire circumference.
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) ꢀ may not react at first or may not react at all when you
are driving in a sporty manner, or on snow-covered or unpaved roads, when you are driving with snow
chains, or in certain other situations. A change in the tread circumference of a tire is signaled by the
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) indicator in the instrument cluster (telltale).
The tire pressure recommended for the tires originally installed on the vehicle is on a sticker on the
driver door jamb ⇒ꢀ Tires and wheels.
