NOTE:
When filling warm tires,
the tire pressure may need to be
increased up to an additional 0.3
BAR above the recommended cold
placard pressure in order to turn
the Tire Pressure Monitoring Tell-
tale Light off.
The system will automatically update
and the "Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light" will extinguish once
the updated tire pressures have been
received. The vehicle may need to be
driven for up to 20 minutes above
24 km/h to receive this information.
For example, your vehicle may have a
recommended cold (parked for more
than three hours) tire pressure of 2.4
BAR. If the ambient temperature is
20°C and the measured tire pressure
is 2.1 BAR, a temperature drop to
-7°C will decrease the tire pressure to
approximately 1.8 BAR. This tire
pressure is sufficiently low enough to
turn on the "Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light." Driving the vehicle
may cause the tire pressure to rise to
approximately 2.1 BAR, but the "Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light"
will still be on. In this situation, the
"Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light" will turn off only after the tires
have been inflated to the vehicle's rec-
ommended cold tire pressure value.
CAUTION!
• The TPMS has been optimized
for the original equipment tires
and wheels. TPMS pressures have
been established for the tire size
equipped on your vehicle. Unde-
sirable system operation or sensor
damage may result when using
replacement equipment that is
not of the same size, type, and/or
style. Aftermarket wheels can
cause sensor damage. It is recom-
mended not to use aftermarket
sealants or balance beads if your
vehicle is equipped with a TPMS,
as damage to the sensors may re-
sult. In case of use of aftermarket
tire sealants not equivalent to the
original TIREFIT sealant, please
take your vehicle to a authorized
dealer to have the sensor function
checked.
CAUTION!
• After inspecting or adjusting the
tire pressure always reinstall the
valve stem cap. This will prevent
moisture and dirt from entering
the valve stem, which could dam-
age the TPMS sensor.
NOTE:
• The TPMS is not intended to re-
place normal tire care and
maintenance,
warning of a tire failure or con-
dition.
• The TPMS should not be used as
a tire pressure gauge while ad-
justing your tire pressure.
• Driving on a significantly under-
inflated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Under-inflation also re-
duces fuel efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the ve-
hicle's handling and stopping
ability.
