Spare tire in

use

Your temporary spare tire is in

use. Repair the damaged road

wheel and re-mount it on the

vehicle to restore system

functionality. For a description

of how the system functions

under these conditions, refer to

tire is installed in this section.

TPMS

malfunction

If your tires are properly

inflated and your spare tire is

not in use and the TPMS

warning light still flashes, have

the system inspected by your

authorized dealer.

When inflating your tires

When putting air into your tires (such as at a gas station or in your

garage), the tire pressure monitoring system may not respond

immediately to the air added to your tires.

It may take up to two minutes of driving over 20 mph (32 km/h) for the

light to turn off after you have filled your tires to the recommended

inflation pressure.

How temperature affects your tire pressure

The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) monitors tire pressure in

each pneumatic tire. While driving in a normal manner, a typical

passenger tire inflation pressure may increase approximately 2 to 4 psi

(14 to 28 kPa) from a cold start situation. If the vehicle is stationary

overnight with the outside temperature significantly lower than the

daytime temperature, the tire pressure may decrease approximately 3 psi

(21 kPa) for a drop of 30°F (17°C) in ambient temperature. This lower

pressure value may be detected by the TPMS as being significantly lower

than the recommended inflation pressure and activate the TPMS warning

light for low tire pressure. If the low tire pressure warning light is on,

visually check each tire to verify that no tire is flat. (If one or more tires

are flat, repair as necessary.) Check air pressure in the road tires. If any

tire is under-inflated, carefully drive the vehicle to the nearest location

where air can be added to the tires. Inflate all the tires to the

recommended inflation pressure.
