Activate the TPMS sensor by increasing or
decreasing the tire's air pressure for five seconds,
or until a horn chirp sounds. The horn chirp,
which may take up to 30 seconds to sound,
confirms that the sensor identification code has
been matched to the tire/wheel position.

Tire Inspection and Rotation

OIE-ID = 1878187 Owner = tlerma01 LMD = 18-jan-2007 LMB = tlerma01
We recommend that you regularly inspect
your vehicle's tires, including the spare tire, for
signs of wear or damage. See When It Is Time for
New Tires on page 311 for more information.
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles
(8 000 to 13 000 km). See Scheduled Maintenance
on page 355.
The purpose of a regular tire rotation is to achieve
a uniform wear for all tires on the vehicle. This
will ensure that your vehicle continues to perform
most like it did when the tires were new.
Any time you notice unusual wear, rotate your
tires as soon as possible and check wheel
alignment. Also check for damaged tires or wheels.
See When It Is Time for New Tires on page 311
and Wheel Replacement on page 317.
