The "Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light" will
illuminate in the instrument cluster, and an au-
dible chime will be activated when one or more of
the four active road tire pressures are low. The audible
chime will sound once every ignition cycle for each
condition that it detects. Should this occur, you should
stop as soon as possible, check the inflation pressure of
each tire on your vehicle, and inflate each tire to the
pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. The
system will automatically update and the "Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light" will extinguish once the up-
dated tire pressures have been received. The vehicle may
need to be driven for up to 10 minutes above 15 mph (25
km/h) to receive this information. A low spare tire will
not cause the "Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light" to
illuminate or the chime to sound.
The "Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light" will flash
on and off for 60 seconds, and an audible chime will
sound when a system fault is detected. The flash cycle
will repeat every ten minutes, without an audible chime,
until the fault condition no longer exists. If the ignition
key is cycled, this sequence will repeat, providing the
system fault still exists.
NOTE: In the event that the matching full size spare tire
is swapped with a low pressure road tire, the next
ignition key cycle will still show the "Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light" to be ON, and a chime to
sound. Driving the vehicle for up to 10 minutes above 15
mph (25 kph) will turn OFF the "Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing Telltale Light" as long as the spare tire or any other
road tire(s) are not below the low pressure warning
threshold.
