TPMS malfunction indicator
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 com-
bined with the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction,
the telltale will flash for about 75 seconds
and then remain continuously illuminated.
This sequence will continue upon subse-
quent vehicle start-ups as long as the mal-
function exists.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is not
reset even after the engine is turned off; it
remains in the on state until the normal
conditions are restored.
When the malfunction indicator is illumi-
nated, 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 tell-
tale 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.
NOTICE
The tire pressure sensors can be
damaged if you do not take proper
precautions.
• We highly recommend that you
have tires repaired or replaced by
an authorized SUZUKI dealer. The
tire pressure sensors can be dam-
aged by installation or removal of
tires.
• Do not use liquid sealants for a flat
tire unless your vehicle is equipped
with a flat tire repair kit instead of a
spare tire.
NOTICE
If the low tire pressure warning light
comes on frequently, there may be
something wrong with one or more of
the tires, tire pressure sensors, or the
monitoring system.
If the low tire pressure warning light
comes on frequently, have your vehi-
cle
inspected
by
an
authorized
SUZUKI dealer.
