188 SAFETY
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 damage the TPMS
sensor.
NOTE:
The TPMS is not intended to replace normal tire

care and maintenance, or to provide warning of
a tire failure or condition.
The TPMS should not be used as a tire pressure

gauge while adjusting your tire pressure.
Driving on a significantly underinflated tire

causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Underinflation also reduces fuel effi-
ciency 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 pressure using an accu-
rate tire pressure gauge, even if underinflation
has not reached the level to trigger illumination
of the TPMS Warning Light.
Seasonal temperature changes will affect tire

pressure, and the TPMS will monitor the actual
tire pressure in the tire.
Premium System
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) uses
wireless technology with wheel rim-mounted
electronic sensors to monitor tire pressure levels.
Sensors, mounted to each wheel as part of the
valve stem, transmit tire pressure readings to the
receiver module.
NOTE:
It is particularly important for you to check the tire
pressure in all of the tires on your vehicle monthly
and to maintain the proper pressure.
The TPMS consists of the following components:
Receiver module

Four Tire Pressure Monitoring System sensors

Various Tire Pressure Monitoring System

messages, which will display in the instrument
cluster display
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light

Tire Pressure Monitoring System Low
Pressure Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Warning Light will illuminate in the
instrument cluster and a chime will
sound when tire pressure is low in one or
more of the four active road tires. In addition, the
instrument cluster will display a "Tire Low"
message and a graphic showing the pressure
values of each tire with the low tire pressure values
highlighted or in a different color.
