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
tire 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 over night with
the outside temperature significantly lower than the daytime temperature,
the tire pressure may decrease approximately 3 psi (20.7 kPa) for a drop
of 30° F (16.6° C) in ambient temperature. This lower pressure value may
be detected by the TPMS as being lower than the recommended inflation
pressure and activate the TPMS warning 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 underinflated, 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.
