Low Tire Pressure Monitor Display
Should a low tire condition occur on any of the
four active road tire(s), you should stop as soon
as possible, and inflate the low tire(s) that is in
a different color on the graphic display to the
vehicle's recommended cold tire pressure dis-
played in the "Inflate to XX" message.
NOTE:
When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may
need to be increased up to an additional 4 psi
(30 kPa) above the recommended cold placard

pressure in order to turn the Tire Pressure Moni-
toring Telltale Light off.
The system will automatically update, the
graphic display of the pressure value(s) will
return to its original color and the Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light will extinguish once
the updated tire pressure(s) have been received.
The vehicle may need to be driven for up to
20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) to receive
this information.
Service TPM System Warning
The Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will
flash on and off for 75 seconds, and remain on
solid when a system fault is detected. The
system fault will also sound a chime. The instru-
ment cluster display will display a "SERVICE
TPM SYSTEM" message for a minimum of five
seconds. This message is then followed by a
graphic display, with "- -" in place of the pres-
sure value(s), indicating which Tire Pressure
Monitoring Sensor(s) is not being received.
If the ignition switch is cycled, this sequence
will repeat, providing the system fault still ex-
ists. If the system fault no longer exists, the Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will no longer
flash, the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message
will not be present, and a pressure value will be
displayed instead of dashes. A system fault can
occur by any of the following:
• Jamming due to electronic devices or driving
next to facilities emitting the same Radio
Frequencies as the TPM sensors.
• Installing some form of aftermarket window
tinting that affects radio wave signals.
• Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel
housings.
• Using tire chains on the vehicle.
• Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM
sensors.
NOTE:
There is no tire pressure monitoring sensor in
the spare tire. The TPMS will not be able to
monitor the tire pressure. If you install the spare
tire in place of a road tire that has a pressure
below the low-pressure warning limit, upon the
next ignition switch cycle, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light will remain on, a
chime will sound, and the instrument cluster
