Tire Pressure
(Except Z06)
Monitor System
The Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) has a sensor on each
road wheel that transmits to a receiver on the
instrument panel.
The system operates on a radio frequency subject to
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and
with Industry and Science Canada.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operaiion.
This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry and
Science Canada. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.
Changes or modifications to this system by other than
an authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
If a tire's inflation pressure is between 5 psi (35 kPa)
and 25 psi (1 70 kPa), you will see a message on
the Driver Information Center. This message will show
which tire is underinflated and two chimes will sound. An
example would be LOW TIRE PRESSURE-LR. This
would mean that the inflation pressure in your left rear
tire is between 5 psi (35 kPa) and 25 psi (1 70 kPa).
If the inflation pressure in the tire drops below
5 psi (35 kPa), the message would read FLAT TIRE-LR
and four chimes will sound. See Driver Information
Center (DIC) on page 3-44.
The TPM will
also alert you
if a
tire's nressure
is higher
than 42 psi (290 kPa). The message will show which
tire is overinflated and two chimes will sound. An
example would be HIGH PRESSURE-LR. This would
mean that the inflation pressure in your left rear tire
is higher than 42 psi (290 kPa). See Driver Information
Center p ! q o!? p g e 2-44.
