Light" will turn off when the fault condition no
longer exists. A system fault can occur due to
any of the following:
Jamming due to electronic devices or
driving next to facilities emitting the same
radio frequencies as the TPMS sensors.
Installing some form of aftermarket window
tinting that affects radio wave signals.
Packed snow or ice around the wheels or
wheel housings.
Using tire chains on the vehicle.
Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM
sensors.
After the punctured tire has been repaired
with the original tire sealant contained in the
Tire Kit, the previous condition must be
restored so that the
during normal driving.
TPMS Deactivation
The TPMS can be deactivated by replacing all
four wheel and tire assemblies (road tires)
with wheel and tire assemblies that do not
have TPMS sensors, such as when installing
winter wheel and tire assemblies on your
vehicle.
To deactivate the TPMS, first replace all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with
tires not equipped with Tire Pressure Moni-
toring (TPM) sensors. Then, drive the vehicle
for 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The
TPMS will chime, the "TPMS Warning Light" will
112
flash on and off for 75 seconds and then
remain on. The instrument cluster will display
the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message and
then display dashes (--) in place of the pres-
sure values.
Beginning with the next ignition switch cycle,
the TPMS will no longer chime or display the
"SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message in the
instrument cluster. Instead, dashes (--) will
remain in place of the pressure values.
To reactivate the TPMS, replace all four wheel and
tire assemblies (road tires) with tires equipped
with TPM sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for up to
20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS
will chime, the "TPM Warning Light" will flash on
and off for 75 seconds and then turn off. The
instrument cluster will display the "SERVICE TPM
SYSTEM" message and then display pressure
values in place of the dashes. On the next ignition
warning light is off
switch cycle the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM"
message will no longer be displayed, as long as no
system fault exists.
NOTE:
The TPMS is not intended to replace normal
tire care and maintenance, or to provide
warning of a tire failure or condition.
The TPMS should not be used as a tire pres-
sure gauge while adjusting your tire pres-
sure.
Driving on a significantly underinflated tire
will cause the tire to overheat, and can lead
to tire failure. Underinflation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may
affect the vehicle's handling and stopping
ability.
The TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver's responsi-
bility to maintain correct tire pressure using
an accurate tire pressure gauge, even if
underinflation has not reached the level to
trigger illumination of the "Tire Pressure
Monitoring Warning Light".
Seasonal temperature changes will affect
tire pressure, and the TPMS will monitor the
actual tire pressure in the tire.
