To deactivate the TPMS, first replace all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with
tires not equipped with Tire Pressure Moni-
toring (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 switch
cycle, the TPMS will no longer chime or
display the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM"
message in the instrument cluster. Instead,
dashes (--) will remain in place of the pres-
sure 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 instru-
ment cluster will display the "SERVICE TPM
SYSTEM" message and then display pres-
sure values in place of the dashes. On the
next ignition switch cycle the "SERVICE TPM
SYSTEM" message
will no longer be
displayed, as long as no system fault exists.

NOTE:
The TPMS is not intended to replace
normal tire care and maintenance, or to
provide warning of a tire failure or condi-
tion.
The TPMS should not be used as a tire
pressure gauge while adjusting your tire
pressure.
Driving on a significantly underinflated
tire will cause the tire to overheat, and can
lead to tire failure. Underinflation also
reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle's handling and
stopping ability.
The TPMS is not a substitute for proper
tire maintenance, and it is the driver's
responsibility to maintain correct tire pres-
sure using an accurate tire pressure
gauge, even if underinflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumination of
the "Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light".
Seasonal temperature changes will affect
tire pressure, and the TPMS will monitor
the actual tire pressure in the tire.
