Changing A Tire; Getting Ready To Change The Tire - Honda ODYSSEY 2020 Owner's Manual

HANDLING THE UNEXPECTED
under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS
low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction
indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system
detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute
and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate
tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.

Changing a Tire

If a tire goes flat while driving, grasp the steering wheel firmly and brake
gradually to reduce speed. Then stop in a safe place.
Replace the flat tire with the compact spare tire.
Go to a dealer as soon as possible to have the full-size tire repaired or replaced.
When driving with the compact spare on the vehicle, indicators that certain
vehicle features are not working properly may appear on the dash. If these
indicators remain on after the tire is replaced with the correct specified regular
tire, have your vehicle checked by a dealer.
