pressure is below the low-pressure warning limit
in any of the four active road tires. The vehicle
may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes
above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the TPMS
to receive this information.
TPMS Deactivation — If Equipped
The TPMS can be deactivated if replacing all
four wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with
wheel and tire assemblies that do not have
TPMS Sensors, such as when installing winter
wheel and tire assemblies on your vehicle.
To deactivate the TPMS, first, replace all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with tires
not equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring
(TPM) Sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for
20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS
will chime, the "TPM Telltale Light" will flash on
and off for 75 seconds and then remain on. The
instrument cluster will display the "SERVICE
TPM SYSTEM" message and then display
dashes (--) in place of the pressure values.
Beginning with the next ignition cycle, the TPMS
will no longer chime or display the "SERVICE
TPM SYSTEM" message in the instrument clus-
ter but dashes (--) will remain in place of the
pressure values.
To reactivate the TPMS, replace all four wheel
and tire assemblies (road tires) with tires
equipped with TPM sensors. Then, drive the
vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph
(24 km/h). The TPMS will chime, the "TPM
Telltale Light" will flash on and off for 75 seconds
and then turn off. The instrument cluster will
display the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message
and then display pressure values in place of the
dashes. On the next ignition cycle the "SER-
VICE TPM SYSTEM" message will no longer be
displayed as long as no system fault exists.
