other than those recommended
could prevent the TPMS from
functioning properly. See Buying
New Tires on page 10-41.
Operating electronic devices or
being near facilities using radio
wave frequencies similar to the
TPMS could cause the TPMS
sensors to malfunction.
If the TPMS is not functioning
properly, it cannot detect or signal a
low tire condition. See your dealer
for service if the TPMS malfunction
light comes on and stays on.
TPMS Sensor Matching
Process
Each TPMS sensor has a unique
identification code. The identification
code needs to be matched to a new
tire/wheel position after rotating the
vehicle s tires or replacing one or
more of the TPMS sensors. Also,
the TPMS sensor matching process
should be performed after replacing
a spare tire with a road tire
containing the TPMS sensor. The
malfunction light will go off when the
vehicle is driven at speeds above
25 km/h (16 mph) after the next
ignition cycle.
See your dealer to perform the
TPMS sensor matching process.

Tire Inspection

We recommend that the tires,
including the spare tire, if the
vehicle has one, be inspected
for signs of wear or damage at
least once a month.
Replace the tire if:
The indicators at three or
more places around the tire
can be seen.
There is cord or fabric
showing through the tire's
rubber.
The tread or sidewall is
cracked, cut, or snagged
deep enough to show cord or
fabric.
Vehicle Care
The tire has a bump, bulge,
or split.
The tire has a puncture, cut,
or other damage that cannot
be repaired well because of
the size or location of the
damage.

Tire Rotation

Tires should be rotated every
8 000 km (5,000 mi). See
Maintenance Schedule on
page 11-3.
Tires are rotated to achieve a
uniform wear for all tires. The
first rotation is the most
important.
